Don’t go begging your ex to take you back – unless you have very good incentive for them to come back to you, begging is not going to work. Or you could try what I like to call “Classy begging” (information about which you will find in the section marked as such).

Stay away from appearing too pathetic. Depending on what your ex is like though, being a little pathetic can gain you the sympathy vote! However, go over the top, and you will lose whatever sympathy they might have felt for you.
