How To Win Her Back?

So What Is The Most Effective Strategy For Winning Her Back

All my strategies are failing. I want her back but she claims that because I called it off initially it will be difficult if not impossible for her to trust me again. We're still friends and all but she says she doesn't want me  back. Nairaland veterans what do you advise?

You must have hurt her when you left her the first time.
If she hasn't moved on, I foresee a very long and tiresome journey towards winning her back. And in the end you may not get her, so be prepared for that.

I appreciate your analysis but sadly you haven't suggested any possible solutions. how do I attempt to win her back, should I increase calls, lay off for a while, pretend that i'm doing her a favor by asking her back? Of course I hurt her when I called it off but then that happens whenever anybody calls off a relationship.

my main point is bigboyslim is that you need to see this from her point of view
let her know what you did was wrong
plead and beg until whenever
let her know you still want her of course but this time like mad
don't bombard her with phone calls, give her space to clear her head
call her like you normally do

Thanks for your advice but unfortunately the words in bold do not exist in my dictionary. I can try the other steps though

I find it difficult to understand why Nland should
suggest to you a device tru which you can get her back
when you delibrately refused to tell us why you called it off.

The heart is not a PC you switch on and off
at your convenience.If you hurt her the first time and you
want her back,it's expedient you tell the prob b4 a solution comes up.

Ok that being said, if she knew this was the reason then you maybe begging for a while.

You have to make her feel beautiful.

You have to romance her.

Okay, well it ended because I contracted the Wandering Eyes Syndrome which means that I basically started finding other girls more attractive than her and felt I deserved to be with these more attractive girls but now I know better that whoever you're with, there will always be more attractive people and what should keep you interested in your partner should be deeper than just physical attraction.

At last , you confess Grin
i hope she doesnt know about that part??

because if she does i wudnt accept you either because if them babes didnt dump u or you didnt get to know who they are you wudnt have come back n say say you want her back

i guess you're a perfect example for you don't appreciate what you have till its gone Undecided

then u say you cant beg, u suppose to even cry sef b4 she agrees to get back with u Cheesy

Good you've realised this but I hope
for your sake that it's not too late.

Talk things over with her. . . Be sincere
Give her reasons to believe you and come back
and even if that includes pleading with her. . . Do.

PS:I  like the two lines I quoted frm u .Try tellin her that too  Tongue

I'm glad you appreciate it but I didn't suggest anything because if I were in her shoes, I would not trust you either.
So good luck with your phone calls and stuff.

I would have been hurt too if i were in her shoes.I would say, if you know that you are ready to stay then you have to convince her beyond every reasonable doubt that she is more desirable to you than ever before.
1. be ready to beg
2.persistence works too (there should be something to be said for consistency)
3.be attentive
4.show love
5.show lots of love
6. be attentive again
Also be prepared to lose her totally, because someone else would have appreciated what you so carelessly tossed aside.
Wishing you the very best!

I still fail to understand this. Why won't you trust me. I just explained what I realized since calling it off. Shouldn't that be proof that i'm even a more mature person now than ever before.

mature people don't dump their GF in the first place with xcuse of yours
she can't trust you because its like toying with her emotions

hello, its not like i dump her every forthnight. It just happened once, and i've realized and acknowledged my folly. I don't think that makes me very immature. After all, I could have done something worse like cheat on her, but I didn't.

I apologise in advance for not being able to do justice to your original post, but I am not currently able to devote all my attention to Nairaland at the moment.

It is always possible to win someone over, especially if their answer was not that of; 'Hell no' or 'I'm getting married to someone else'. As long as she's single, she might as well be buying you more time.
Time, that is the key, with loss of trust, it won't happen overnight, any girl who gets fooled once and who is smart will know to guard her heart twice as hard, which means to you that you should try twice as hard, be twice as sensitive, twice as understanding and twice as persistent.

Since she has lost trust in you, ask her what you can do to regain it, and do it. The last part is the most important.
Don't take for granted the simple things like calling when you said you would, being on time, checking up on her, it's a hard job, but you need to adopt the mentality that she is worth all this effort.

Be humble, remember that she is giving you a second chance, and also keep your eyes open, if she is responding after a few weeks, then continue working hard, don't slack, she can close the gates to her heart in an instant, it's easier after the initial heartbreak/loss of trust.

I would write more but like I said, I will have to leave any additions until when I return.

Take care and all the best.
