The best way to get her back is to walk away. If you were good to her and you stop caring and walk away she'll come back to you. When she knows deep down you don't care if it works out or not and she wants it to work you don't have to worry about getting your balls back because you have all the leverage and she has none. The problem with this approach is you can't fake it. You have to stop caring and when that happens well you don't care so its not important to you.great post.
i'll say this. it's not impossible to get your balls back but you have to truly change from within. you have to press the reset button on the whole game. it's almost like the person you were dies and you re-introduce yourself to her and it,s a completely new/fresh relationship. Time away often helps establish these new foundations as long as if she meets you again, you truly are a different person mentally. she will sense it.
I agree with you that you shouldn't hold on though. just let it go.
I think i didn't express myself properly. I think the way i said it makes it seem like a paradox. first, there are no guarantees of what will happen. What i'm saying as an external observer is that the option of him truly being ok with taking this L is actually the option that would increase his odds of saving the relationship. But you're right, if he thinks of it on those terms, it actually defeats the purpose since it becomes just a tactic.
that's it though. it can't be just a show. His focus has to stop being about saving the relationship and start being about finding the path to happiness and following it. for his own sanity, he has to change his mindstate and stop feeling like he's in too deep to cut his loses. He can't just show he's willing to walk away. he has to get in the mindstate where he's actually willing to walk away. And what i was trying to say is that the irony of my advice is that it would actually increase the odds of his relationship being savable. but he shouldn't even care about that at this point.
I've had women I gave my balls to come crying back to me and I held all the power because I didn't care and deep down they could sense it. They knew I treated them good and wanted that back.
