Wow! Look at this!

Missing your ex, wanting them back. (I was more a wanting them to realize they messed up, but then again, I was one of those walk first talk later types. BUT)

I almost feel dirty posting the link to this guy's book, but it was on the side of my facebook page which kind of cracked me up (Way to target advertising, I am married. Of course my exboyfriends came crawling back...that seems to be one of the side effects of getting engaged. That post comes later)

So here is a link about how to get an ex-boyfriend back . Whoa. Holy cow. It is a site that is all about how to get a "boyfriend back after he breaks up with you"

This is actually on the site:

I'm about to reveal to you secrets that most women will never know about men:

1. What exactly goes on inside a man's mind...

2. How to push his "emotional buttons" so he comes crawling back to you...

3. Specifically how to make him commit to you after you get him back..

Up Next, the author will also teach you how to create peace in the middle east, and how to put on your makeup in the pitch black dark with your hands behind your back! I am sorry, how to push his emotional buttons!? A site dedicated to you finding a way to manipulate a man who broke up with you to come back into your life.

First of all, he broke up with you...so barring children, or if he owes you money...why would you want him around anyway? HE BROKE UP WITH YOU. That implies that there is something wrong, either with him, with the relationship or...face it with you. You might just not be right for him. That being said, if it was something about you he didn't want...guess what? It is STILL his problem. (Unless you abused him physically, emotionally or financially. Then you should just stop reading here and go get help for yourself. and not in this book that I am talking about)

Second of all, what does it say about you as a woman (and BTW there are lots of sites on how to get your girlfriend back) that you are going and buying a book on how to push his buttons, and these "techniques" to MAKE him commit to you?

Listen I am all about talking things out, and hell sometimes you break up and get back together (though after one particular relationship in college I took on a no reruns rule) but this? Creepy!

But hey this guy has been a life coach for going on...5 years now! Again from his site:

Triggers that are specific to only men. He'll literally come crawling back like a little puppy dog, begging for another chance with you. If you had that kind of power over your man, how sweet would that be?

Woohoo...wait. What? Thats just what a real woman wants, a man who crawls around like a puppy. Aren't puppies not house trained...and chew shoes?

Actually there is only one line I agree with on this page:

The entire reason you want your ex boyfriend back so badly is because he rejected you.

I can sum the "emotional" buttons this guy is going to sell you right off. Be happy, move on, show the world how faboo you are...because lets be honest nothing sucks quite as much as someone getting way over you, esp if you expect them to be heartbroken. Its something my Dad actually told me off handedly once, and was a constant mantra from my Mom when I was all heart broken over a relationship; living well is the best revenge.

Lets be equally honest, how much would this guy you are trying to get back want to be with you if he knew you were out there buying modern day "spellcasting" books that claim to have magical powers to help you manipulate him into doing what you want.

Maybe there is a reason he left you in the first place that you need to be addressing?
