When your ex boyfriend walks in and says he needs some space, you might wonder what that means. It can mean, just what he says, he needs some time and space to think about some things that are bothering him. But, it most likely means he is taking what he feels is a gentle way of breaking up with you. Whatever his reason, it is not good news for you.

It is bound to cause you sleepless nights wondering if he does not love you anymore. It will be a shock to your emotions and you will find yourself crying at the slightest cause. Your mind will be constantly filled with thoughts of winning him back and that will make you desperate. You will not be able to keep on that way and so, you need these expert tips to make your ex boyfriend want you back.

The first thing you should do is take a deep breath and try to think of what caused his problem. Think of what you might have said or did to make him unhappy. If you think this is putting all of the blame on you, it is not. There are probably plenty of ways you could find fault with him, but he broke up with you and you want him back. If things were going well, you might have thought you should push for a commitment. Men do not give up their freedom easily and that could have scared him away.

Whatever the cause, once you think you know what it is, you cannot simply call him and tell him things are alright now and he can come back. Instead, you will have to respect his wishes and give him the space he asked for, at least for a while. That means you will need to stay busy and keep your mind off your ex as much as possible. To do that you might need some help.

Spend time with your family, they will be glad to see you and their love and support will help rebuild your confidence. This will also give your ex boyfriend time to get over his problem and begin to miss you. Thinking about the breakup, he will realize that he is not perfect either and might have been as much at fault as you. These thoughts will make him regret telling you he needed space and want to close the gap between the two of you.

These thoughts will make him receptive to a call from you. Be sure you have a grip on your emotions so you will not cry at the sound of his voice. You will be calling him to apologize, but you might find him apologizing to you also. The time apart will have made you both see how much you need each other and how important your relationship is. Winning your ex boyfriend back after a breakup is all about patience and understanding.
