Is it possible to show your ex girlfriend you still love her so you can get her back for good? The answer is a resounding “yes.” There are several things any man can do to show the woman he still loves how much she means to him. It’s not about buying her gifts or proclaiming your undying love for her. In fact, the most effective way to get her back may actually surprise you.

In order to really show your ex girlfriend you still love her you have to do one thing. You have to respect her needs and wants. If she’s asked you for some time, the worst thing you can do is badger her repeatedly with phone calls asking her to take you back. The best thing you can do is tell her that you understand and give her that space. This doesn’t mean you are agreeing to not be a part of her life in the future, it does mean for the time being you are respecting her wishes and giving her room.

Taking on the role of a friend is something you will need to do to show your ex girlfriend you still love and value her as part of your life. Many men don’t recognize the benefits in becoming just a friend to an ex. They fear that it means that they’ll be designated to that status forever and will lose any chance of every reigniting the romance between the two of them. That’s not the case. You will actually benefit more from becoming her friend because she will start to trust you again and in time will completely open up to you. Approaching her from just a romantic point of view may cause her to close herself off to protect her heart. Become her friend and remind her of why she fell in love with you in the first place.
