Getting him back

My fiance and I broke up but how do I get him back in my life? I know I made mistakes my insecurities were part of the problem. I'm working on getting my self esteem back but it's hard. I just want him back in my life. I'm completely heart broken and depressed...but I haven't told him that. I've given him the impression that I'm ok without him but he does know I want to try again. He lives in a different state so there's no chance of running into him but since we live so far apart how can I make sure he doesn't forget about me?

Getting him back won't make everything automatically change. Getting him back would be a 'quick fix' to the way you are feeling emotionally right now. Until you fix the underlying causes to make your own life happier, even getting back together won't work for long.

Reading material to consider:

Good luck to you on your path of self-discovery.
