Perhaps you have just broken up with your ex boyfriend or girlfriend recently and is feeling extremely devastated now. You just feel like it is the end of the world and the only thing on your mind is how to get ex back as soon as possible.

Well, this is understandably so. This is in fact what many people go through just after a painful break up. You may have this urge to contact your ex immediately and persuade him or her to come back to your side.

However, it is usually a good idea not to meet or contact your ex for the time being. At least for 3 weeks to 1 month. You may be wondering why is that so.

Well, there is definitely a very good reason for you to do that. The fact is a lot of people tend to make many mistakes in the process of getting their ex back to their side. And they usually make very common mistakes that everyone seems to be making. Mistakes like calling ex over and over again, sending to many text messages, arguing over the break up, professing undying love, stalking an ex etc.

So, why do people tend to make these mistakes? Well, there can be many reasons but one of the main reasons is because people who made these mistakes are usually in an emotional turmoil. And when is the time that they are in an emotional turmoil? Well, it is usually just after a break up.

That is why when you have just broken up, it is usually a good idea to avoid your ex boyfriend or girlfriend for the time being. You need to allow time for your emotions to heal. This is usually possible if you are not working or studying in the same place.

The next question you have is probably when you can start to contact your ex again. Well, you might see different advice around. Some says 2 weeks, some say a month etc. So, which should you follow?

Well, there is no fix answer. But generally, a month is a good period. However, if you still don't feel ready to meet your ex yet, you might want to take some more time, say a few days. Of course, you do not want to take too long, or your relationships can drift apart. But who know? Maybe your ex will take the initiative to contact you?
