Why Your Ex Is Acting Mean or Rude Towards You

[@matthewmcbride1655]

Brad Browning. that’s a name i’ll remember for the rest of my life. i got dumped on september 4th of this year out of nowhere and i begged and pleaded with her for 2 weeks before giving up. i then relapsed and wanted her back again but i decided to search on youtube on how to get ex back and i found this channel. the methods you give out seemed foolish when i first heard them but i thought to myself that i have nothing to lose at this stage and as of today December 16th my ex finally had enough and spilled her guts to me that she isn’t over the breakup and wants to work something out. it’s all in my hands now on what i want to do but i just want to say thank you brad. you really do know the secret rule to turning situations in your favour. keep it up my friend and as good as i think your videos are i hope i’ll never have to click on another one of your videos again if you know what i mean. much respect 🤝

The way he behaves with me it's evident that he hates me from his gut. Actually, he never liked me at all, he settled down because he felt lonely. I want to forget him.

[@BradBrowning]

Forgetting someone or them being on your mind less takes time, as you can see, especially if that was a significant relationship. I suggest you get my Beat the Breakup e-book. I made sure it takes a wholesome approach so everyone can relate to and I spent a lot of time writing this and have given it careful thought, so I guarantee you'll find something useful in it to help you out and move forward in life without your ex.

I don’t want my ex back!!! The bit.. us only showing who they are!!!

[@BradBrowning]

Yes, but it's always best to take your time in deciding first so there'll be no regrets in the end. As I always say, the decision is ultimately up to you. You know your situation and your ex best. Sometimes a relationship can be salvaged and worth the save but sometimes it isn't, especially if there's cheating or some other type of abuse involved. It's your life and it's your decision.

I hope it goes good for you brother I really mean that after all people do break up and then patch things up on a permanent basis but I wouldn’t turn my back on the bit.. if she did it one time she’ll do it again.

[@SelinaFrowis-zl1cb]

Or maybe he was in love with another woman and the woman dumbed him and than he made the entire anger out on me. 🤷‍♀️

[@BradBrowning]

Be sure you don't tolerate that kind of behaviour.

[@DeadMysticx]

is that normal months later? I moved on and I saw him for the first time in person last week since the breakup (Almost 2 years ago). I was in NC all the time and never contacted him. He was really angry to see me, kind of ignored me. The breakup wasnt because of something big or bad. After this meeting I was only laughing.

[@BradBrowning]

Lots of people are rather indifferent after sometime. Him being mad could be due to a ton of factors, including your ex being in another relationship. Is it possible you thought he was still angry to see you just because he ignored you? Whatever the case, it doesn't matter since you both looked like you've moved on anyways. But if you need my help, hire me as your coach. Take care!

[@kpdotexe3649]

Honestly when she was cold to me when I tried to initiate conversation for the first time after 2 weeks (we see each other at school every day, and she’s initiated nice conversation with me every now and then. Still good with no contact online) and honestly it kind of showed me that she still felt for me. The fact that it was obvious she didn’t want me talking to her showed me that she still cares for me and it hurts her when I initiate conversation instead of her. Needless to say, I haven’t spoken to her at all since then in order to give her space, even though she still talks to me.

[@BradBrowning]

Unless your situation falls under one or more of the scenarios here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5zCZaqmoLtpbMU AND kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWjMdGCdfdKNaKM it's best you ignore contact from your ex. If your ex continues to reach out to you during the no contact stage, however, then this really depends on the frequency and nature of the contact from your ex and whether or not you've reached the phase where you're supposed to be talking again. The only exception is if your ex asks for you back and is sincere about it. If your ex continually messages you, then it’s important to put your ex’s messages into context, more so if this happened during the “no contact” phase. Is your ex trying to contact you about something really important, like an emergency, unpaid bills, or something equally urgent? These are reasons to respond, including messages where they get angry due to your lack of response. Discussed that in full detail here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYXNdnR9f7yHq6M So if your ex is really just texting some useless random stuff and/or asses their power over you, then you can just ignore and continue on with the 30-day "no contact" rule. Use your discretion. Watch and follow the tips here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJiyeGypZsuUmZo

That never worked on me. I simply and maturely kept refusing them and once I met another man and got married to him and who is still my husband, that ex finally got the memo and finally left me in peace. Now I’m grateful to fully move on with no past past ex suitors trying to come after me. If any of them did start spreading false rumors or lying about me or trying to make me look bad, I defer to the truth from God, and be kind to my enemies and if they remain unrepentant, then I walk away for good. :)

I’m mean to my ex bc I’ve told him a hundred times he brings me stress and he doesn’t listen. I literally wish he would leave me ALONE! I’ve tried to be nice but I can’t deal with him being a nuisance any longer-

[@BradBrowning]

I've witnessed both sides of the coin and yes, it does get annoying. As a dumper, be sure you're being firm in your decision and let your actions follow suit. ie: go no contact indefinitely until your ex gets the message.

[@Stridedfy]

Hey my bf just left me. He wanted me to be clingy in the beginning but now he doesn’t like it. He felt trapped he said but he couldn’t be honest about with me even though he always tells me to be. It’s been like 1-2 days of no contact but I miss him a lot. He said he didn’t want to get back together because he wouldn’t feel happy but he’s not letting us resolve this together. He told me he put himself first so he ended it. I didn’t realize at first that I shouldn’t beg so I did. He said he’d cut me off I didn’t stop so I stopped. I want him back because I know we can be happy together. He’s just not letting us fix anything. He chose his friends over me. He’s known his friends for a shorter amount of time. What should I do? I want to be with him again but I’m scared he won’t miss me even if I look and act better and independent. There was a build up with little arguments he said but there were more positive things than negative. This is the second time he left me. Is there still a chance we could be together again? He told me he decided to break up with me 2 weeks before he ended it. Is more time and no contact really good for our situation?

[@Stridedfy]

He told me when I was still begging I was jeopardizing his own happiness. I’m giving him some of his stuff back today. He said he wanted to be left alone and he didn’t want a relationship. He promised he would leave me again and that he wanted to marry me. I don’t know what to do. He send even if it wasn’t rational to leave me, he said his decision was final and he made up his mind. I’m planning on giving him a little clean slate letter since I cut him off before break. Please help me. He promised he wouldn’t give up on our relationship. But to avoid breaking it he said he wasn’t giving up, just letting go. What do I do? I want him back so much but I’m scared no contact won’t work. He said that I hoped I found someone that was scared to lose me. But I don’t want anyone else. I just want him

[@BradBrowning]

Sorry to hear that. He's done resolving issues in your relationship and at this point, you ought to give him space, okay? Stop forcing things. Try to have self discipline and remember, love should never be forced. Otherwise it becomes an obsession, so be very careful of going that route. If your ex dumped you and showed you he/she doesn't want to be in your life at the moment, you ought to respect that, okay? For most dumpees that is the case. It doesn't mean that will be the case forever but at the moment, it surely is, so respect your ex's need for space and have some self discipline. Focus on yourself instead. Okay? This vid is for you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYelYZKia5WGpq8

[@Stridedfy]

@@BradBrowning Tysm. For some reason now my ex is mad? I made the mistake of telling him we’re going no contact. He acknowledged it but now he’s kinda upset I’m ignoring him I think? I gave a present to a friend that was in his class but I asked another friend to deliver it in front of him. Another friend is telling me I stared at him. He’s also mad because I didn’t give him back two things but I explained to him why I wasn’t going to give them back. Apparently he’s also kind of mad because he was expecting a present and I’m not allowed to give him one anymore because he ended things. I don’t understand why he doesn’t just reach out to me himself instead of telling our friends. Before he ended stuff, he would say I’m not listening but was he even listening as well?

[@Americanpatriot-zo2tk]

I think with my ex it is a mixture I don’t think she’s necessarily cruel and I’m sure she doesn’t necessarily want to hurt me although she’s been hurting me for six or seven months and she knows it because she’s smart I think she still has some feelings for me and I think like any girl she wants to think she has a boyfriend but I’m done with this shit.

[@BradBrowning]

Her acting rude means you need to be laying low and giving her space as chances are you appear way too eager. Try to be neutral towards her especially if the breakup is still fresh.

[@nandiniagrawal1152]

Hey Brad! My ex dumped me in September this year because we both messed up in a lot of ways but I still love him and I want him back. I tried contacting him many times and our conversations were just stuck in a loop with nothing substantial coming out of it. When I talked to him, sometimes I felt like he wants me back too but is too egoistic and hurt to say so. Finally in December, after months of trying and reaching out he asked me to leave and blocked me from everywhere. It's been 3 weeks since I have been practicing the NC rule. Plus he is in the USA and I am in India. We have very less chances of meeting. Do you think I can have him back?

[@BradBrowning]

The no contact rule should've been employed back in September as continuing to contact each other will only lead to more confusion, as is the case with you, I guess? As to your chances, I really wish I could give you a direct yes or no. However, as it is, each situation is unique, so I suggest you take the free quiz as it hits on the critical elements that will determine your chances depending on your answers. In other words, my quiz can give you a more accurate answer than I can since as you may have noticed, there are various factors at play here which needs to be looked at as well as your own actions after the breakup.

[@sohaahmed9729]

Brad . I need a reply please. My ex broke up with me based on a petty fight. It's our 2nd breakup. I contacted my ex after 15 days. It's an LDR . I was blocked everywhere except mobile. I sent one of those texts that you sent after no contact. I didn't do no contact for long because the fight was not that big deal. And he immediately unblocked me on WhatsApp. We chatted. He agreed to call. I flexed all the good things of my life subtly. He got jealous and angry. He blocked me again everywhere. I can tell he is extremely jealous hot and cold confused and angry. What should I do next !? He also said he is keeping me blocked because he thinks he is not ready to face it. My social media profiles basically.

[@BradBrowning]

Petty or not, that fight definitely made an impact. Fighting is often unavoidable, but when it becomes too much, it’s time to nip the problem in the bud if you still can. So it's either that or you go on a break and discuss the logistics as well as how it should go and how long it should be. What were you two fighting or arguing about? It's best to consider the relationship overall first, so watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqatd5lrgMiba9E Anyways it's best to give it time because all this arguing had taken a toll in your relationship. This may help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHOomZSPaMx_f9k Perhaps you've both argued more than you had a good time with each other? It could also be you're too incompatible or stubborn to meet each other halfway. If the negatives outweigh the positives in the relationship, that's when an imbalance happens and the relationship will keel over wherein one or both people will likely abandon ship, as the case with your ex. It's time to reset things. Start with the 30-day "no contact" rule to get your ex into a psychological neutral. Here's how it can help you: y2u.be/zw0ChuXCEmw

Well, my ex has had quite a few bad behaviors lately, including leaving me stranded with a work we had shared even though he wanted after the breakup to be part of that project. The thing is that it's been five months since we broke up (he broke with me), two with zero contact included, and he has in his house belongings of mine, I asked him for them the other day back, I told him he could send them to me by mail if he wanted, that I would pay for the transport, and he hasn't answered me, he has even blocked me....

Sorry to hear that. It's frustrating indeed when an ex acts rebellious despite you trying to be nice about it. How far is this place and is it possible to have a friend or you drop by the place to arrange for pickup? If he's angry for a reason, just leave him be for a few more weeks.

That's not good especially if he's still in a relationship. Wait for a better time before interacting with your ex, however, don't wait around doing nothing. Take a leap of faith on a new path as well because you never know where life can take you, which may be better without your ex. Use this time to heal and prioritize yourself.

That's normal behaviour. Give it time for your ex to warm up slowly to you. Better to look at the situation with fresh eyes though and keep things fun and lighthearted. Also read my (updated) Ex Factor Guide 2.0, which covers commonly possible ‘what if’ scenarios and will give you pretty much everything you need to know, so read it many times over until you master it.

How long has it been since you two broke up? Unless he's asking to get back together and leaves the other relationship, you ought to be cutting off contact and giving each other that much needed space first. Otherwise the chances are high you'd get strung along, especially if the breakup is still fresh. Depending on how long it's been, you may have to stand your ground and be firm with him. Your situation is also very delicate so once you start to see some more progress with your ex, then don’t go at it alone, especially if you're in doubt or don't know what to do next.

I don't see this as a cause for concern really, unless you've done something really epic to mess things up or really hurt your ex, there's no reason to worry as much, really, because it could be due to the top 3 reasons I've stated on this vid: y2u.be/fjtv90o9bkI Blocking you could just be your ex’s way of coping so I wouldn’t worry too much about it if I were you, at least not initially. So give it time. If you stay blocked after months though, then that’s another story, especially if you have no other means of communication or have no mutual friends. More about that on here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4a3amV_d5qondU Anyway social media should be the least of your concerns. Focus on all three phases and your ex may naturally unblock you, in time, as you learn to rebuild that attraction and re-attract this ex back to your life.. Here are the basics of all three phases to getting an ex back: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5aqf4N4mdWhqas and social-media wise, here (but then again, don't let it become your sole focus) : kzbin.info/www/bejne/emKqoYVrgqajh80 Good luck!

Then out of nowhere it happened as I now am in disbelief she would so me this way bc we were always close siblings and me and him have kids now I have to be strong for my kids as it is hard and it is awful bc he really isn't trying to be there for our girls and I live in my mom and dad's rental as that is where we were all living and now my mom says he isn't allowed here at all period bc of her own issues with him besides what he done as it only made it worse and states that if he wants to see his kids it will have to be somewhere other than here bc she isn't gonna let him come around and I don't know what to do as I am not in a position to move yet or to be able to handle seeing him with having her around him but I have to try for my kids sake but I told him when he is to see the girls not to have her with as the girls don't wanna see her with there dad for a few reasons with one being that is there aunt and she also has scared my kids with her acting out like crazy in front of them since this has all haooened

[@BradBrowning]

Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately his actions are something that is out of your control. You do need to stay civil for your kids. Depending on how long this issue between you have been going on, it may be time to move on from this. Whatever the case, It's an uphill battle for sure with kid/s involved and/or usually other responsibilities still tied to your ex, but it's best you do limited contact or what I call the dynamic "no contact" rule. Prepare for things to be tough but if you play your cards right and depending on the extent of damage done, it can actually still be salvaged. Try to prevent things from getting even more awkward than it has to be by applying the tips here as much as possible: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYXNdnR9f7yHq6M AND kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnW9o6GEnZ1_hck

Hey Brad, I broke up with my x twice blocked her on all platforms exceptions Instagram I forgot about it even both my phones. She was calling me from blocked numbers until I stopped answering. Our conversation picked back up after she saw an old video I sent her a couple months after we broke up criticizing my experience with her threw relationship coaches video. She responded almost 2 months after it was sent. And proceeded to talk mad trash to me about how great she's doing and talk down to me. I cant figure out why she wants to speak to me with nothing nice to say. Its foolish can you help me understand? I'm like if you have nothing nice to say stop reaching out to me. She tries to manipulate me by saying im sensitive to get me to put up with disrespect. She said we could hang out but who would hang out to be disrespected. Any advice?

[@BradBrowning]

Just let it go. Why is she still so mad at you? If she can't even talk to you in a civil manner, it's best to just let this all go unless you did something that warrant this kind of treatment from your ex?

[@careless2429]

Hey brad, been watching for the past month or so. I've finished 30 days of no contact, and reached out. my message to break the no contact was "hey, just passed by X restaurant and remembered our lunch together there last summer. Hope you're doing well." She responded with a 👍, and left it there. a few days later, I was hospitalized and she reached out to make sure I was ok. My question is how do i gauge how much to contact her, and is she acting hot and cold or just worried about me? Thanks for your help!

[@BradBrowning]

It's difficult to assess your situation unless I get a good grasp on what's going on as well as your history, in addition to the daily updates on how the interactions go with her. So as general advice, it looks like you're on the right track, assuming you've done the first phase (30-day "no contact" rule) correctly and basically had set the stage for this second part. Be sure to check out my other videos for more tips on how to go about this, especially this: y2u.be/gUBNd6pDINM Since you've only recently reconnected, then don't expect your ex to warm up easily. Getting an ex back is a process. Here's a short infograph to guide you in each process: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXvXnomYedCVotk Look out for the signs that your ex has moved on, though: y2u.be/TnZzeEIPEik But evaluate things, too. Are you sure you're not trying to rush it? Setting a deadline is a good way to fail when it comes to exes, so I highly discourage it. What steps have you taken to get your ex back? It's time to re-assess those and see what's working versus what's not working. Sometimes, getting an ex back is like trying to fit a square into a circle, but oftentimes, chances are you're letting emotion dictate you and therefore end up making the wrong choices. Have you checked out my guide yet? It’s ultimately up to you to act (or not act, depending on which phase you’re in) on getting your ex back, but it helps if you read it to ensure that you’re on the right track.

please help me :( my ex and i broke up a week ago and we ended on good terms, we still texted each other and talked about normal stuff. unfortunately i made the mistake of asking for another chance on tuesday, but he said it wouldnt work because we would keep hurting each other. things were fine after that until i found your videos and decided to apply the nc rule. i didnt text him all day yesterday and he didnt text me either, but at night i saw that he followed all the girls that had a crush on him when we were still together and it broke me. i couldnt help myself and texted him saying that he made me feel like i was paranoid and stupid for worrying about them, but ran to all of them right after we broke up, and that it just proves me that i wasnt so crazy after all. he ignored it, but answered this morning with just 'ok'. im supposed to come over and pick up the rest of my stuff today (we lived together), but i dont know how to act around him now. part of me wants to tell him how much it hurts me that hes doing this bc like i said we were fine, but im not sure if i should just act like nothing happened and not mention it. i feel so dumb.

[@BradBrowning]

Sorry to hear you're going through this... but there's no need to hurt yourself more, so maybe stop trying to look at your ex's profile/messages/snaps, posts, etc.? An essential part of the "no contact" rule is to turn your focus inwards for a good 30 days straight, and looking at what your ex is doing and whatnot largely deviates from that point, don't you think? Discussed that here, too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6PSfY1tjbBsnbs

i am bisexuals And I went from being bff for two years to being in a relationship for ten months with my best friend.Everything was going fine but after a fight one day he said he won't be with me anymore. He insulted me a lot but I don't know why I still love her। He studies in my school and I see her every day. I am trying to move on. It hurts me a lot when she huged another girl in front of me but I can't do anything. I want to make her mine. And I wanna correct my mistakes. She thinks I am fully toxic and don't wanna be with me anymore.she don't even talk to mee .and she said she never gonna take me back Never come to me again. Also she acted soo cold and rude towards me .I am just shook to see how she even forgot about our 2yesr friendship just for 10 moths relationship .What should I do in this time?

[@BradBrowning]

Stop forcing things. Try to have self discipline and remember, love should never be forced. Otherwise it becomes an obsession, so be very careful of going that route. If your ex dumped you and showed you he/she doesn't want to be in your life at the moment, you ought to respect that, okay? For most dumpees that is the case. It doesn't mean that will be the case forever but at the moment, it surely is, so respect your ex's need for space and have some self discipline. Focus on yourself instead. Okay?

Reached out after 6 months NC. Told her my feelings explaining some work I've done oneself during NC. She was nothing but short and angry, sarcastic. She then unfriended me on social media. Clearly she is not happy with herself, projecting feelings onto me.

[@BradBrowning]

That's not the way to regain attraction though. Also these changes, do it for yourself and never for anyone else, okay? See, making changes for the sake of someone is considered seeking validation, and that's an unattractive trait in and of itself… so it naturally won't do anything to rebuild the attraction necessary to get your ex back in the long run. Lastly, since it's been many months since the breakup, it's best to consider the facts I've mentioned here first as this lets you determine whether there's still a real shot or not: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4e5mo2jjperZqs and/or take the free quiz at www.breakupbrad.com/quiz Good luck!

How does one "microcheat"? Begging won't help though. What helps is giving him space to process what happened and process the hurt, pain and anger he's likely going through... after you've sincerely apologized.

He has never once said he doesn't want to be in contact or there's no chance for us to ever get back together .....is no contact a good approach

[@BradBrowning]

No contact is always the best approach, especially if you hadn't done it yet. Play your cards right and notice the world of difference that this can make. Stick to the "no contact" rule this time for at least 30 days. Here's how you can tell it's starting to work: kzbin.info/www/bejne/imW2q2l6nryFqbM AND the importance of silence after the breakup here: y2u.be/zw0ChuXCEmw and in the meantime, this is the principle you ought to follow: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5fFmIhtq5WBr5Y A situation with an ex is often fragile, so you'd really want to omit, if not minimize these mistakes. Start with the 30-day straight "no contact rule. It’s one step forward, two steps backward with an ex & there are no unlimited chances with them, so if you can do it right moving forward, then do so. Check out my guide so you won't end up making the same mistakes. Good luck!

hello brad so me and my bf i know its just a short time but we broke up after being in a relationship for 3 months we r still both teenagers and the reason why we broke up is because he put so much effort in a span of 3 months and me i didnt becaue i thought we both have different lifestyle and i was in a toxic household im so lost he said that we have to breakup because he doesnt want to keep hurting me and he wants me to have a good life and to think about myself more…. we decided to see eachother and honestly it didnt look like we are gonna break up we were both happy but when we talked the both of us are crying real hard and he still loves me but he wants to focus on himself and he want me to focus on myself so we decided to break it off but that night we even kissed and hugged and me and him are crying really hard when we broke things off that night also he came running to me because my phone is only 5% so i decidedto text him and he came and i cant call the uber anymore so he came to me and he said i love you and im sorry after booking an uber and opening the door for me

[@noemikaia3326]

and it has been just 3 days now and i dont know what to do anymore we both still love eachother and it was a healthy breakup but i still want him back we chatted again today and he told me he doesnt want to talk to me anymore and i said maybe if the both of us heals maybe we can be back together and he said okay…but right now there is no us so what am i supposed to do brad? i mean i decided to give him space and ill try the no contact rule but he’s stubborn and also i took ur test and my score is 70…..

I really hate to burst your bubble here but let her finish whatever unfinished business she has with this ex. Sorry, but there's not much you can do at this point, especially if your relationship only lasted a short while and more so if she's seemingly (subconsciously or not) used you as a rebound, for your ex to jump back too quickly with him. Good luck and I hope you find the right woman for you soon!

Sorry to hear. I know how painful a breakup can be, but the best way to get your ex back is to take care of yourself first and get your emotional and mental health back into full gear. Awareness is key, so at least you're halfway there! :-) These changes take time to work though, so put your relationship in the back burner first just so you can really take time to really tend to your own issues first with the help of the professionals you're already talking to, okay?

[@BradBrowning]

Do the 30-day rule first. Once you're done with the "no contact" phase and had sent one of these text messages for re-establishing contact, give your ex time to warm up slowly to you. Don't expect one text to work magic because it simply doesn't work that way. Getting an ex back is a process, therefore, learn to be patient and like I said, give her time to actually come close to you. She can't do that if you keep chasing her. Makes sense?

You're welcome! Yeah, well, like I always say, the decision is ultimately up to you. You know your situation and your ex best. Sometimes a relationship can be salvaged and worth the save but sometimes it isn't, especially if there's cheating or some other type of abuse involved. Take care!

hi brad, i think my ex is being cold and rude to me because of the last reason you stated. he cheated on me with an online girl from another country who's so much older and i'm trying to win him back. they met on roblox and they're edating (lmfao). no contact period would make him enjoy his time more and forget about me. how do u think i can get him back?

[@BradBrowning]

If it's a cheating ex, yes, they always do that and go as cold as possible. That is your ex's choice however, as hard as it may be to accept. Sorry, but chances are your beau has been at least emotionally cheating on you. Discussed that in depth here: y2u.be/7KE6nb4-ndA There's no easy way to say this but the answer is is to move on, especially if your ex doesn't seem to be regretting their actions and asking to get back together. Most of the time, a lot of people would move on, but a few would still fight for the relationship, so this all depends which side you're on and what your views are. But take into consideration about what I’ve mentioned here, too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2OahX-brrqgrck There is no right or wrong answer here because it is your relationship and it's personal to you. Make sense? Anyway men and women cheat for different reasons, but if you think your ex is worth it and if there's been a genuine connection between you two before the cheating happened, then try to see the roles that you BOTH played that led to all this mess and see once and for all if it can be resolved or not, okay? Whatever the case, it's important you forgive yourself because no one's perfect, and forgive your ex too. Really take your time before deciding though and be sure not to make any hasty decisions from an emotional place but never force things with him if you can see he no longer wants to try. Take care!

Why you want an cheating ex back? Live your life and meet someone better than a low life like him.

The day he broke up I told him hes wrong and that we can work it out, but I accepted his decision and said he will never hear from me again.

[@BradBrowning]

You're welcome! What do you two always bicker about? Fighting is often unavoidable, but when it becomes too much, it’s time to nip the problem in the bud if you still can. So it's either that or you go on a break and discuss the logistics as well as how it should go and how long it should be. What were you two fighting or arguing about? It's best to consider the relationship overall first, so watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqatd5lrgMiba9E Anyways it's best to give it time because all this arguing had taken a toll in your relationship. This may help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHOomZSPaMx_f9k Perhaps you've both argued more than you had a good time with each other? It could also be you're too incompatible or stubborn to meet each other halfway. If the negatives outweigh the positives in the relationship, that's when an imbalance happens and the relationship will keel over wherein one or both people will likely abandon ship, as the case with your ex. It's time to reset things. Start with the 30-day "no contact" rule to get your ex into a psychological neutral. Here's how it can help you: y2u.be/zw0ChuXCEmw

Some are so desperate they’ll go to the extreme to get your attention.

[@BradBrowning]

That's a huge red flag, especially if they dumped you.

[@kristenfuller9168]

Mine ex is being mean to me 😥💔 he's not caring for the passing of my friend I lost. My friend passed away on January 4th 2023 after New year's 😢 and my ex said yeah whatever he didn't care what 😥 because he's hurt that I'm didn't talk to him I didn't say Merry Christmas or New year's to him. He's not supporting me because I didn't reply to him he's mad at me for not replying to him he's mad at me that got busy. 😓 Time for me to put my life on hold 💔💔 🤧 if I ever date him. I felt forced to trust him I gave him another chance. Originally he wanted my trust back he wanted me to hurry up I think. 😓 My friend passed away on January 4th I got dumped on New year's day January 1st. 💔😓 My heart is shattered. He keeps blocking me from sending me friend request and blocking. 😥 Now he officially said to someone she's out of My Life. I got kicked out of his life for not replying back to him 😓💔 I've been doing the no contact rule right after the break up.

[@BradBrowning]

Well... if you two can't seem to compromise to get both of your wants and needs met, the breakup may have been a blessing in disguise. Take time to heal from this and learn from it, yeah? Take care!

[@kristenfuller9168]

@@BradBrowning yeah parts of it felt like a blessing. Also he always got mad at me when I was busy and not responing to him. It just felt like he was isolated me from being busy and family and friends. It's like he wanted me to put my life on hold. He always blocks me due to me being busy. And he said I don't like this. Meaning he doesn't like me being busy or talking to other people.

[@kristenfuller9168]

@@BradBrowning he did this to me last year too. He was begging me for trust and saying please forgive me I didn't mean to block you. And the second time he said the same thing. That time I didn't give him my trust so he got really mad at me and blocked me. He's hurt that I'm not talking to him well I'm grieving hurt that my friend passed away. And he only seems to cares that I didn't say say Merry Christmas or happy New year to him that's what this is all about.

[@kristenfuller9168]

@@BradBrowning he didn't even say sorry for your loss. I didn't get support from him at all. But no instead he was only thinking about me not being on Facebook much so I get blocked over that

[@timelesswords6826]

Because he's been affected by the break up just for sure

[@BradBrowning]

Yes, contrary to what other people say, a breakup hurts both parties regardless of who ended the relationship.

[@husseindaiissack9383]

When she blocked your nd unblocked your and again blocked your what doesn't mean

[@husseindaiissack9383]

It's in English or your can't understand

[@BradBrowning]

It doesn't mean anything substantial... and I don't see this as a cause for concern really, unless you've done something really epic to mess things up or really hurt your ex, there's no reason to worry as much, really, because it could be due to the top 3 reasons I've stated on this vid: y2u.be/fjtv90o9bkI Blocking you could just be your ex’s way of coping so I wouldn’t worry too much about it if I were you, at least not initially. So give it time. If you stay blocked after months though, then that’s another story, especially if you have no other means of communication or have no mutual friends. More about that on here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4a3amV_d5qondU Anyway social media should be the least of your concerns. Focus on all three phases and your ex may naturally unblock you, in time, as you learn to rebuild that attraction and re-attract this ex back to your life.. Here are the basics of all three phases to getting an ex back: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5aqf4N4mdWhqas and social-media wise, here (but then again, don't let it become your sole focus) : kzbin.info/www/bejne/emKqoYVrgqajh80 Good luck!

[@earlgrey2130]

If they hate you.. you probably did something to deserve it

[@BradBrowning]

9 times out of 10, that is correct.

[@SelinaFrowis-zl1cb]

Because he was an scapegoat-user.

[@BradBrowning]

If you realized you were just a mere scapegoat, don't wait for her to end things with you. Do that yourself instead and don't look back!

[@dakotarudow]

Invited me over had sex asked to cuddle immediately started yelling about me talking to other girls threw me out of her house.: wtf

[@BradBrowning]

How long has it been since the breakup? That's the danger of meeting up when one or both of you aren't ready to do so yet. Emotions tend to run high when the breakup is still fresh which is why I often say no contact is key!

[@maureengannaway8635]

Because he's a narcissist..period

[@BradBrowning]

If he's truly a narcissist, you might want to think twice before trying to get him back, because even if you can change his mind, you can't change his personality, especially if he has a narcissistic personality disorder or the traits being shown to you. It's a mental illness that should be looked into by a medical professional. The best you can do is to encourage him to seek help. Now if you aren't sure whether he really is one and/or how to best handle the situation, consider signing up for my coaching program so I can look into this with you and what's really happening that you may be too close to see or have an outside perspective on. Best of luck!

Hi brad .. my ex broke up with me 2 months ago followed by a fight she.. for atleast a month i begged and pleaded. After watching your couple of videos i started no contact and after 10-15 days she texted me .. we had a chat and then again i followed the no contact then she again texted we and unblocked me .. she still don't want to get in relationships but i want her.. yesterday we were gone to shopping and then at evening we makeout (i does her., touching, romantically, satisfying) .. i asked her that do you love me.? She said NO but during that entire day she was very happy and spending time with me. On the way to shopping i held her hands and she had no issue with that.. and then again the next we were together in her residence and we did that again and she said that we again did the wrong thing without any relationship. She said -Now we’ll never meet again ..I don't understand now what to do.. we makeout yesterday.. i want to get her back..My relationship was 1 year ago and she has treated me very nice and lovingly. She usually used to say that “please don’t leave me and I can’t live without you” Please help me brad to get her back Thank you

[@BradBrowning]

I think it's too soon to be doing all that especially after begging her, man. I suggest you stop forcing things or try not to appear like you're forcing stuff. Try to have self discipline and remember, love should never be forced. Otherwise it becomes an obsession, so be very careful of going that route. If your ex dumped you and showed you he/she doesn't want to be in your life at the moment, you ought to respect that, okay? For most dumpees that is the case. It doesn't mean that will be the case forever but at the moment, it surely is, so respect your ex's need for space and have some self discipline. Focus on yourself instead. Okay?

[@MrSinCityKing]

What if you left them alone stoped Talkin to them..unless it's about the kids... Yet every week they msg you to fight or argue because she thinks something that isn't even true ???

[@BradBrowning]

Then that's more like your ex's problem with her accusations. This probably means you two need some time apart and yes keep communications strictly about the kids for now. It's an uphill battle for sure with kid/s involved and/or usually other responsibilities still tied to your ex, but it's best you do limited contact or what I call the dynamic "no contact" rule. Prepare for things to be tough but if you play your cards right and depending on the extent of damage done, it can actually still be salvaged.

No i don believe this fr ur just trying to make ppl feel better🥲

[@BradBrowning]

It is the reality in most although not all cases... unless you've done something wrong to truly piss off your ex or something that would warrant your ex's anger.

[@sandhyasan3272]

When you realised you did everything wrong from the beginning and now it reached to divorce and him having a new gf😢

[@BradBrowning]

It happens. Relationships teach you about things, sometimes it's about yourself. So it's best to take this as a lesson learned and apply those lessons in your next relationship after becoming a better version of yourself.

Hi all….. Update 28/11/22: She found out I’d received my ticket for the works due for Sat 3rd December. She text me saying “I can’t believe your still going!
