I'm sure you'll agree that getting back together with an individual after a breakup can be difficult.

Well you're not the only one facing this difficulty of losing the one you love and than wondering if there is any chance to win back love.

It might just have been you who, on the spur of the moment, ended the relationship. This could have happened following an argument and now that you've reflected on it for awhile, you've came to the conclusion you made a mistake.

Although there is no 100% guarantee, you can win back the love of your ex partner if you're willing to do things that help increase the odds of success in getting them back.

You're your own person, that is the first thing you must realize, and you need to learn how to live life by yourself. One of the biggest mistakes people make when getting involved in a relationship is giving up their individuality, and they no longer know the enjoyment of life as an individual.

You really need to love yourself first, before you can ever love someone else. If you can enjoy your own company, you're ready to enjoy life with another person.

Reflect back on your relationship and find out just what happened to break it up. You're looking for the exact cause, the root cause.

Was it just one unique situation that you over reacted to, or has the relationship been under considerable stress lately?

Find out what went wrong so that you can do what needs to be done to fix things.

Are you absolutely sure you're wanting to get back together with your ex for the right reasons? Is your love for this special person motivating the desire of getting back with them, or do you just like being involved in a relationship?

If you just like being in a relationship, it is no point trying to win back lost love, because you're not in love and you'll have to deal with the breakup situation again further down the road.

If your ex partner has moved on with life, you need to proceed with caution and think about your approach. I'm not suggesting you can't win them back, but you most likely will have to approach it differently.

If they've found a new partner and you make an approach in an attempt to get them back, they most likely will consider you to be crazy. And threatening their new partner in any way whatsoever is wrong and won't help your case.

If you can discuss things with your ex alone and see if they have any interest in getting back together at all is your best course of action. If they're in love with their new partner and they no longer have feeling for you, accept that, and move on.

Time changes people, and if the relationship has been broken up for some time, the person you used to be in love with may be completely different. You may have thoughts of wanting them back, but, upon further interaction with them, you may realize you no longer love them as you once did.

Time has changed you as well, it changes all of us, and you and your ex just may not be a perfect match anymore. You may or may not fall in love with one another again, you can both give it a try, but, realize you've both changed and the relationship might not work out as expected.

Rekindling a relationship takes time, and getting to know each other once more can't be rushed if your looking for a sustainable relationship that lasts. If you truly want to win back lost love, exercise some patience and be realistic.
