Last Updated: August 12, 2024 Fact Checked

In the wake of a breakup with an Aries guy, how can you become "the one that got away?" Aries may appear to move on with his life quickly after the breakup, but because of his impulsive nature, he might later look back on the relationship and realize he's made a mistake. If you want your Aries man back, all you have to do is play it cool and let him take the lead. When you show him everything he's missing, he'll wonder what might've happened if you had stayed together—and try to rekindle the relationship!

This article is based on an interview with our psychic astrologer, Stina Garbis, owner of Psychic Stina. Check out the full interview here.

Expert Interview} When you pick a fight or demand an apology, your Aries ex will be defensive. Instead, do your best to come to terms with your breakup. Talk it through with trusted friends and allow yourself to be sad without blaming anyone for what happened. Your maturity and cool acceptance will make Aries second-guess the breakup.
- To move on, allow yourself time to grieve for the relationship, get your emotions out, and rely on a support system of friends and family.

Aries might see it as a sign of desperation if you chase after him. In his mind, desperation is weakness, and he's attracted to strength. Hold off on contacting him directly for at least a couple of weeks after you break up. Aries is quick to forgive and forget and hates being alone.^{[3]

Expert Interview} He's likely to get over any hard feelings about the breakup quickly, and after that, he'll regret distancing himself from you.
- Try the no-contact rule, which encourages you to cut off contact for 30 days. This gives your Aries enough time to get over any initial anger that he had about the breakup and start feeling wistful instead.
- If you want to reconnect with your Aries, send him a friendly "how are you?" text after the no-contact period ends. From there, ask him to meet up with you in person to build your friendship or rekindle the romance.

Maintain an air of mystery.

Keep him in the dark about your life, so he'll wish he knew more. Once you're texting him again, hint at what you're up to but be vague with details. Aries loves a challenge, and if you're distant around him, it'll bring out his competitive spirit. He'll want to know the details of your life again and regret being so out of touch with you.
- For instance, you could say, "I've been getting into some pretty cool creative projects lately. What about you?" without telling him exactly what you've been working on.
- You could also try, "Remind me to tell you more about my trip last month! I have so many stories, but I'll have to save them for another day."
- If you want to get your Aries man back, it's essential to let him take the lead.^{[4]
