subject: Two Things You Must Avoid to Stop a Breakup [print this page] Author: Sarah Scott Author: Sarah Scott It's surprising how a lot of people out there don't know how to stop a breakup. I understand why it's really hard to stop a breakup. Schools don't provide classes on how to have great and meaningful relationships. I'm getting off topic here..but these are the most common mistakes women make that begins unraveling the seams of their relationship. First thing you should do is believe him. A lot of the things we say are intuitive. If you are having problems in your relationship, or even broke up, just know there is a great chance he still loves you. Rather than just focusing on the words he is saying, pay attention to his actions too. So you guys split up, it doesn't mean that it's over. I know it may feel like it's really over, but chances are he still loves you. There is a good possibility he doesn't want to breakup with you. You can always heal the hurt caused in the past and start new. The first mistake is actually believing what you guys had is gone. This leads to the second mistake a lot women make. If you really believe that it is over, you will feel nothing but misery. You will feel heartache, pain and betrayal . You will probably lose sleep, get depressed or just burst into tears during the day. When you're in this state of misery, the last thing you should do is contact your ex. If you do contact him, you are most likely going to send him a long email about how he tore your heart into pieces or you might call and text him constantly . Doing all this will not stop a breakup from happening, it will only increase the process of it. Prevent this from happening. Seriously, don't contact him. Contacting him will only make him run the other way. The reason why some relationships don't work is because one person is frustrated with how things are going and needs some time and space to figure out what they want. He needs space and if you keep calling or emailing him, you aren't giving it to him. The reaction you would get is him pulling even further away from you. You don't want that to happen. Give him that extra breathing room so he can think his thoughts. You will be pleasantly surprised of the end results you'll get by giving him the space he desires. By just giving him the space he desires, he might realize how important you are in his life. These are the top two mistakes made. Understand that there is a good chance he is still in love with you. Don't push him away by harassing or bugging him. Doing these two things can help you save a relationship.About the Author:
