BEFORE YOU TEXT
What’s Your BIG GOAL?
I like to say, “You can’t hit the target until you paint it on the wall.” So
now that we’ve got a clear picture of why your relationship ended in the
first place, we’re going to paint a big fat bulls eye on the wall and figure
out why you really want your ex back and what your goal is here.
Aga in, no one has to see this material but you, but it’s important that
you’re as honest with yourself as possible.
Question 1: WHY do you want your ex back?
No, really, I mean it. And “because it hurts so much right now that I
feel like I’m going to drown” isn’t the right answer. (OK, I guess it’s AN
answer, but you want more than just that.) If I’m going to help you get
your ex back, I want to make sure you’ve got a damned good reason for
getting back together and are going to do everything you can to make
that relationship work.
Here are some answers I hear all the time:
• “I want my ex back because we understand each other better than
anyone else on this planet.”
• “I want my ex back because, despite some bad times, we work re-
ally, really well together.”
• “I want my ex back because I want my children to grow up in a whole
family, AND I know we can be a positive, happy couple together.”
• “I want my ex back because when I get around him/her I feel safer
and more passionate than any other time in my life.”
• “I want my ex back because I want someone to take care of me.”
• “I want my ex back because I’m incredibly attracted to them.”
• “I want my ex back because I don’t want anyone else to have them.”
• “I want my ex back because of financial reasons.”
Notice that some of these are pretty boring and maybe even a little dark.
But they’re all HONEST and (in some way) LOGICAL as well as emo-
tional. So don’t beat yourself up if your reasons for wanting to get back
together seem a little less than “fairy tale romantic.” Just be honest
with yourself here. Really think about your answers here, they’ll affect
everything you do during the rest of this process.
