1. Be clear about your intentions.

Once there’s an open dialogue, use it for what it’s worth. Be open, honest and upstanding about what you want.

This will tell the other party that you respect them and help to rebuild the trust that was previously broken. Never expect someone to read your mind, because the fact is, no one can do that, no matter how much you focus on conveying your thoughts.

2. Love is all you need.

The reason you are rebuilding your relationship is because you love your partner.

Even if you need something, focus on the other person, not what you want. If you show that you care about him/her, he/she will be more receptive to reconciling.

3. Get over and forget what happened in the past.

Put aside all the problems you used to have in the past, it doesn’t matter anymore. You can discuss the problems you had in your previous attempt at a relationship, but reliving them will only make things worse.

Shorten the distance between the two of you and bridge the gaps!

4. Always be honest.

Always be honest, no matter the situation. Cheating may not have broken your relationship, but it certainly won’t fix it. Make sure you’re not defensive or offensive, and if you can’t keep your cool, keep quiet.

6. Take responsibility

Always accept responsibility, even if you don’t think it was your fault. The other person clearly believes you have them, and accepting responsibility will help you bridge the gap between your perceptions.

7. Avoid “pressing buttons”.

Remember that you and the other party have animosity towards each other (or at least you were used to it). You know there are certain triggers that affect this person: be an adult and avoid pressing those buttons, no matter how tempted you are to do so.

8. Think positively.

It’s always a good idea to think positively about life. Even if things don’t go well, you can think positively about the next experience.

Keep looking forward and radiate confidence, which is attractive to other people. This will make your partner wonder why he doesn’t have a relationship with you.

9. Be genuine.

Always be your true you, no matter what. You would rather fail going your way than succeed like someone else.

10. Set your limits.

You have personal limits and you are doing everything you can to not exceed other people’s limits, so you deserve respect too.

Be sure to remind the other person in a courteous and friendly manner each time they exceed the limits set.

11. Keep directing the conversation.

No matter where the conversation goes, try to keep it moving towards your goals. If the conversation goes well, invite the other party to another conversation in the future.

12. Sometimes you have to let it go.

Despite your best intentions, the possibility exists that the other person simply does not want to reconcile.

If he doesn’t respond or seems aggressive, forget it. There are millions of people in the world, and there’s no reason for you to waste your time on someone who doesn’t like you.

Rebuilding a shattered relationship won’t always be simple: both sides have to face the animosity and distrust that drove them apart in the first place.

If you are looking to rebuild a relationship, reconnect with the person through Whatsapp first.

If he/she responds, there may be interest. If not, you have the opportunity you needed to move on.
