Mental games. At one time or another we have all played them. In fact, if you find yourself in a situation where you want to get back together with your ex girlfriend, you may be playing mind games or contemplating this emotional sport. The fact is that you may not even be fully aware that this is what you are doing.
The bottom line is that if you sincerely want to win back your ex’s love and affection, you should avoid playing with her. In the end, the game just won’t work. Engaging in this type of emotional sportsmanship will actually end up causing even more damage to your relationship.
A common game a man plays when he wants to get back with his ex girlfriend is to pretend that he has started dating another woman. In other words, a guy chooses to play what could best be called the jealousy card. (Of course, there are many other examples of games played by men.)
In some cases, this type of play can have the desired effect…for a short time. However, in the long run, your ex will figure out what’s going on or you’ll find yourself so wrapped up in lies and scams that it will be impossible to re-form a healthy relationship with them any time in the future.
In the final analysis, if you really want to get back together with your ex, if you really want to work on building a healthy relationship with her, you need to focus your efforts on being honest on all levels with her. You can’t play games, you need to play directly with her.
