How to Make a Guy That Used to Like You Like You Again

Visualize winning him over. It's inevitable that you will spend some time thinking about the guy who used to like you too, but you can control how you spend that time. Imagine how it will be and what it will feel like when you do win him back. Envision this as a future memory and not a distant one. Positive thinking goes much further than you often realize.

Be confident and strong. This is often easier said than done when you're trying to win back someone who rejected you. However, appearing sad or desperate is a guaranteed way NOT to win him back. Show him you are capable of moving on.

Find other things to focus on. Even though you can win back the guy who used to like you, it's not going to happen overnight. Constantly thinking about him will not do anything but cause undue stress. Take up a new hobby or devote more energy to your career and friends. In addition to having less time to focus on this guy, this will make you feel like you have regained some control of your life.

Start talking to this guy again. Go up to him at the end of class or on a lunch break. If you don't work or go to school together, shoot him a text message. Don't be afraid to make the initial move because you have nothing to lose at this point.

• In the early stages of trying to win him back, try to keep the interactions short and sweet. Don't put yourself in a position where you will feel tempted to bring up negative feelings.

Limit your contact. If you call or text a guy repeatedly, he will often view this as harassment or stalking and be turned off by it. Limiting your contact will also leave him wanting more, and make him more likely to come to you.

Act flirty. Once you have spent some time together again, this is an appropriate step to do. Use your eyes to flirt or wear a bold red lipstick. Remember, there's a difference between playfully flirting and appearing desperate. Guys love to feel like there "all that and more" laugh at his jokes unless they upset you. Make him feel like he has control but not to much control.

Wear his favorite clothes on you. If he ever complimented you on a shirt you wore, or you had a particularly good day with him while wearing a certain outfit, don't be afraid to bring those items out again.

Stir up old memories. When you're ready to make the first bold move in winning him back, remind me of the good times you both enjoyed together. Bring up a funny anecdote or a particularly fun or sexy date.

Go to new places. Don't get stuck hanging out at the old spots where you both used to spend time together. If this is going to be a new situation between the two of you, pick exciting new locations or fun date ideas that you haven't done together.

Let him know how you feel. Once you've done everything above, you can let him know how you feel about him. The only way you'll be able to get him back is by having a discussion about it.
