Well there is some truth behind the theory, but if taken to extremes it will do you no good at all. It's true that after breaking up with someone you have to give the situation some space.
The last thing your ex needs right now is to be bombarded with phone calls, text messages, emails etc. It's really hard I know, because all you want do is try to change their mind, but hard as it may be, you have to summon every ounce of willpower you have and just sit tight and put the phone down.
During a breakup, or the period leading up to it, emotions and feelings are running high, and things are said and done in the heat of the moment. After all the emotional chaos there needs to be a period of calm, where both of you can collect your thoughts and look at things more objectively.
Take a few days to clear your head and put yourself in a more rational frame of mind, this is much easier said than done, but if you want to get back with someone love, it will help your cause no end.
Don't worry if you've already been in contact with your ex, there are still plenty of things you can do to get things back on track...
