Bold, lively, and passionate are the defining traits of a Leo. If your ex was born between July 23 and August 22, he’s a Leo! Breaking up with a Leo is no easy feat. They dive into love with kindness and fervor, but their confidence can sometimes come off as arrogance or stubbornness. To make a Leo man regret losing you, you’ll need to appeal to both his strengths and weaknesses. Here are 12 tips to make him miss you and realize the mistake he made by letting you go.
Steps
Choose glamorous outfits.
Pick your best outfits and pay attention to your appearance. Leos are incredibly kind but also quite vain, often drawn to dazzling external beauty. If you want a Leo to notice you after a breakup, show up at his favorite spots in stunning attire or post radiant photos of yourself on social media.
- Leos adore luxury. If possible, wear your most expensive outfits and accessories, and don’t forget to visit a spa for glowing skin.
- Even if you can’t grab his attention immediately, you’ll at least turn heads everywhere you go!
Post joyful moments and adventurous experiences on social media.
Leos are drawn to outgoing activities and pure entertainment. Show him what he’s missing by sharing the fun moments you could have enjoyed together. Party with friends, plan adventurous nature trips, go karaoke, or cook an elaborate meal. Capture and share these happy moments online so your ex can see.
- To make him miss you, you need to genuinely enjoy and embrace your newfound freedom. Leos can sense insincerity and will see right through it!
Socialize with mutual friends.
Let your mutual friends know about your new life so they can spread the word to your Leo ex. Leos are often the leaders of their friend groups and always want to stay updated on the latest news. If you stay connected with mutual friends, they might bring you up in conversations when your Leo ex is around. These discussions will remind him of the memories you shared, making him regret losing you.
- Go grocery shopping with mutual friends, hang out with them, attend parties, and join social events.
- This tactic is especially effective if you’re not in direct contact via messages or social media.
Boost your confidence to match Leo’s intensity.
Work on improving yourself to make your ex miss you. Leos are strong and confident – and they want a partner who can match their inner strength. Breakups are tough, but you should treat this time apart as an opportunity to pursue your passions and reconnect with what makes you feel powerful. The next time your Leo ex sees you, he’ll be amazed by your confidence and independence, and this will make him crave you even more!
- Find a new hobby or sign up for a class to build your self-esteem.
- Try to exercise for at least 30 minutes daily and eat plenty of fruits and vegetables.
- Strike up conversations with strangers, call someone you admire, and make an effort to connect with new friends.
Radiate positive energy.
Your positive attitude when interacting with others will catch your Leo ex’s attention! Leos are naturally drawn to happiness that shines from within. The next time you see your ex, be cheerful, smile, and focus on the things you’re grateful for in life.
- Maintain a positive mindset at all times, not just when your ex is around.
- To boost your optimism, engage in activities that challenge your creativity and make you feel useful.
- Try relaxing activities like meditation or yoga, volunteer, and reconnect with people who bring joy to your life.
- If you don’t see your ex in person, spread positivity on social media. Create a post celebrating a friend or loved one.
Ignore him for a while after a rocky breakup.
Use this tactic on a prideful Leo who craves attention. Leos value their reputation and love being the center of attention. Ignore him for a while to make him miss the attention you once gave him. However, don’t use this strategy for too long, or his pride might push you away further. Deep down, Leos still crave connection.
- This is a great option if he was the one who ended things. Use this time to heal.
- Avoid texting or calling your ex. Let him reach out first.
- Don’t like or comment on his social media posts.
- If the breakup was sudden, try not to engage in drama. Leos love theatrics, so don’t give him the satisfaction.
Ask him for a favor if you’re still on good terms.
Leos are highly protective by nature. Even after a breakup, your Leo ex might still feel responsible for ensuring your safety and happiness. While you shouldn’t take advantage of him, you can try asking your ex for a small favor – like advice or a restaurant recommendation. His leadership and protective instincts might kick in, making him miss you.
- Send him a message like, “Can you help me with something?”
- Choose an area where he excels. For example, if he’s tech-savvy, ask for his help in picking a new laptop.
- If you’re still good friends, you could ask for something more meaningful, like advice on handling a difficult coworker.
Show him you’re still there for him.
Deep down, Leos crave genuine love and authentic connections. They might be the life of the party and dominate social situations, but they truly want to be accepted for who they are. Show your care through kindness and let him know you’re still there as a friend. Your sincere concern will remind him of the emotional bond you once shared.
- Be gentle and loving in all your interactions with him, even if you’re hurting.
- If you’re still friends, check in on him regularly and offer support when he needs it.
- For example, if you know he’s facing a tough challenge, send him a message like, “I know this week is tough for you, but you’ve got this!”
- Leos are also known for their loyalty!
Compliment and praise him.
Add a touch of flattery when interacting with your ex. Leos love being treated with respect and admiration. Remind your Leo ex that you were once a perfect match by highlighting his strengths. Appeal to his vanity by complimenting his appearance.
- For example, if you notice your ex has a new hairstyle, say something like, “Wow, your hair looks amazing.”
- If you don’t see him in person, try connecting on social media and leave a compliment on his latest post.
Stay optimistic about your future together.
Bring your Leo ex back with optimism. Instead of dwelling on negativity or hopelessness about your relationship, focus on what you can change to make things better if you get back together. If you decide to talk to your Leo ex about reconciliation, do so with a positive tone. This might make him miss the days you spent together even more.
- Remind him of the dreams and goals you once shared. The happiest couples often pursue common goals together.
- Evoke memories of the happy moments you shared. For example, you could text something like, “I just went to our favorite restaurant. Do you remember it?”
- Avoid speaking negatively about your past relationship – your words might reach him, and your negativity could push him away.
Wait for him to suggest getting back together.
Leos don’t like being controlled. They are confident in their ability to shape their own destiny and make their own choices. Though it’s not easy, be patient during this time apart. Once your Leo ex starts missing you enough, you can subtly hint at rekindling the relationship.
- Say something like, “I miss you,” instead of, “I think we should get back together.”
Don’t try to make him jealous.
You’ll hurt your Leo ex (and your chances of getting back together) if you betray his trust. It’s tempting to flaunt a new relationship in front of your Leo ex, but this won’t make him miss you. Attempts to make him jealous will only wound his pride and give him a negative impression of you.
- Be honest with your Leo ex. Leos dislike people who try to manipulate them.
