It certainly can be a pretty nerve racking experience to have to deal with having your girlfriend break up with you. Gone are the memories that you shared as well as the hopes and the dreams that you may have had which always seemed to include her in it in some way. Is this really the end of the road for your relationship or is there some way that you can turn things around and make your ex girlfriend want to come back to you?

;Knowing where most guys go wrong when they ask themselves the question, "how do I get my girlfriend back," can actually help you out more than you may realize. See, when you get a good idea on the things that you should not be doing in order to get her back, you are much more likely to get what it is that you should be doing.

;Here's where most guys go wrong when they want to get their girlfriend back:

;1. They make the situation seem much more dramatic than it really is.

;When you make the situation seem much more dramatic than it really is, it is going to be hard for you to get out of that "funk" and really get down to the business of winning back your girlfriend. You should not take it too lightly of course, but you also should not make it seem like it is a hopeless desire, either. It can be done, and in fact, many guys figure out what works to get her back, so you should be able to as well.

;2. They do not give their girlfriend enough time for her to deal with the break up.

;Breaking up is hard on everyone involved. If you do not have the courtesy to give her some time to deal with things and have some time to get over whatever was the catalyst for the break up, you are probably not going to get her back. Do not make the mistake of not giving her enough time to deal with things, because it will end up hurting your chances of winning her back for good.

;3. They make excuses for messing up, and they don't learn to adapt to the situation.

;While it might feel kind of tricky, you have to be able to adapt to the situation as it plays out. Not being able to adapt causes a lot of guys to actually see and know that they are doing the wrong things and they keep on doing them none the less. If you really want to be able to have her back in your life, then you have to be adaptable as the situation plays itself out.
