What To Do About A Text Message Breakup

Well, today it finally happened…the one thing you really didn’t want. You received a text message breakup from your boyfriend or girlfriend. Now your life really sucks big time and you don’t know what to do! The first thing is, don’t panic. Desperately texting them back will only drive them further away.

I may be a little (or a lot!) old fashioned, but in my book a text message breakup is pretty impersonal and cowardly. Sending a text message to break up a relationship seems to have replaced the ‘dear john’ letter, the breakup note, and even the dreaded ‘we have to talk’ scenario.

So what can you do to try to save the relationship and get it back on track? As I mentioned above, do everything in your power not to appear desperate and clingy. Instead, agree with them that maybe a break is a good idea. That’s really going to make them wonder what’s going on in your head! After all, they just sent you this text message breakup and you’re ok with it?

Now that you have kept your dignity intact, the real work begins. What you need is a strategic plan to get your ex to want you back. To get started on developing your plan you should watch these two videos a friend of mine made. (you’ll need to scroll down the page a little) The methods he uses to save a relationship may be a little unusual, but they work! Don’t let yourself be a helpless victim of text message breakup.
