subject: 3 Tips For Rekindling An Old Flame With A Former Girlfriend [print this page] Have you ever had one of those moments where you kind of sat back and wondered what an old girlfriend was up to and if she was single? If you have, then you also probably have thought about what it would be like to rekindle that flame that you used to share with her. You probably decided that it was merely a wish and it probably would not happen. However, there are plenty of stories of couples breaking up and going their separate ways only to find one another again and falling back in love with one another. So, it really would not be outside the realm of reason to imagine that you might be able to do the same with a woman you used to date.
Here are three tips that could help you rekindle an old flame with a former girlfriend if that is what you want to do:
1) Call her up to see what she has been up to and try to find out if she is single and available.
This is the first step and it is one that you are going to have to take if you want to be able to see her again and see if there is any hope for you and her to rekindle that old flame. You could ask around as well if you still know some of the same people. Just don't make it too apparent that you are thinking about getting back with her, because that might be a little off putting if you haven't talked to her in a long time. That's something that you might want to bring up later, after you have already gotten in contact with her.
2) Don't assume that just because it did not work out in the past that it won't work out in the future.
Some guys come up with the idea of rekindling things with an ex girlfriend and then they shake that idea off because they assume that if it did not work out back when they were dating, then it means that it won't work out now. That does not necessarily have to be the case. I know of several couples that couldn't seem to make things work the first time that they dated and then they got back together a while later and found that they were able to work things out and have a pretty good relationship.
3) Make sure that when you connect with her again, that you are not coming across like a guy who is living in the past.
This is one thing that could really sabotage your chances of winning her back. If you come across like you are stuck in the past and that the main reason why you want to have her back in your life is because you can't move on, then you are not going to come across as someone that she probably wants to date. Most women are looking for a guy that they can have a future with, so you definitely don't want her to assume that you are living in the past.
