We’ll also cover some important CORE CONCEPTS and INNER GAME
stuff that will make the whole “Text Your Ex Back” process go much,
much smoother.
Why Did You And Your Ex Really
Break Up?
Let’s play a little “choose your own adventure” here. Pick the option that
fits your relationship, read through it, and then do the exercise at the

Option 1: Your Ex Broke Up With You.
Ah, you got dumped. Sorry to hear it, but all is not lost.
The first thing is to figure out WHY your ex broke up with you. I don’t

They possibly don’t even know themselves why they broke things
off. (“It just doesn’t feel right.”)
• The relationship is not moving “forward.” It’s stereotypical, but
you’ll hear this one most often from women (especially women in
their early- to mid-thirties who have the “biological clock” ticking
