When I broke up with my wife the last thing I thought would happen was for me to get my wife back. Sometimes strange things happen.

I was so distraught I just did not have a clue where to turn. I spent ages looking for articles and stuff to help me get over her but what I came across was info on how to get her back.

Now I’m the biggest cynic in the world. I would bet on this info being a load of old bull. I decided to throw forty bucks away and give it a try.

One of the bonus sections dealt with psychology and how we use it every day to almost control other people with silent suggestion.

This part of the package spoke out loud to me. I recognised these methods straight away. Psychological triggers I had used on my children to get them to do things they didn’t want to.

The old reverse psychology stuff is used all the time, everywhere. Imagine you are going on a run and you try to get a pal to go with you.

They don’t like the idea so you lay a line on them like “if you aren’t physically capable, that’s fine”. They usually return with something like “of course I’m capable, when do we start”.

We played the psychology card here. Using their own pride as the tool against them. These same tricks can be used to get your ex back on track.

I got my head together and left my ex a voice message. I planted the seed of curiosity in the message as curiosity plays a huge part in our lives. Marry curiosity with a bit of psychology and we’re talking magic powers!

She called me back within a day and the important bit was she actually believed she was calling out of the blue. To find out how I was and what I was up to. She didn’t knowingly realise I had planned this with the seeded message.

I didn’t ask her to call me when I left the message. But I was pretty confident she would call me. And I was right.

After this it was pretty easy going for us as my wife was convinced she’d made the first move. She hadn’t, I had. But I’m not going to remind her.

After the breakup I was looking for stuff to help me get over her and I ended up doing a u-turn and trying to get my ex back. Which worked out well for me.

If it hadn’t worked, as I expected it not to, I’d have taken the writer up on the guarantee and gone and watched a game!
