In today’s article, we are going to look at tips to convince your boyfriend to stay with you that will work. These tips will not only make your boyfriend stay but will also fill your life with much love and happiness.

How To Convince Your Boyfriend To Stay With You

1. Have a heart-to-heart talk

have a heart to heart talk

If you feel that your relationship is worth fighting for then the best thing to do is to talk with your man. This does not mean that you have to take full responsibility for all the things wrong in your relationship and lose your self-respect, rather you should discuss how you both can work on your difference of opinions and save your relationship

You should be totally honest during these conversations and let him know how you feel. If you have made a big mistake like having an affair when in the relationship then it is natural that your partner might be having a hard time forgiving you. In such a case, the good thing to do is to give your partner some space and make a promise that you will never repeat this mistake.

2. Show some maturity

For relationships to work, the two partners involved must be mature to handle the challenges that come up in a relationship. If you are a lying, crazy girlfriend who is always looking for drama then it is only a matter of time before your relationship will break. In such a case, the only thing that will convince him to stay is when he will notice a change in your behavior. 

Understandably, changing your old habits is not easy but even small efforts from your side will create a difference and make your partner forgive you for your mistakes. 

3. Hear them out

Other than telling your partner how you feel, it is also equally important that you try to understand what they are feeling. There are chances that they might be hurt by something that you might have done in the past and you might not even have an idea about it. 

Therefore, it is important that instead of fighting, you have open communication with your partner and accept your mistakes. This small effort from your side might convince your partner to stay and fix your relationship and stay with their family.

4. Be calm

Everybody wants to come home and have peaceful, love-filled talks with their partner rather than a screaming match. If you are a woman who can see only shortcomings in his partner and keeps him nagging for the same then you need to change yourself soon and hope that your partner is ready to start afresh.

There might be times when you might think that your partner is not doing things your way. In this case, for the sake of relationships, it is better to forgive your partner if there are small mistakes from his side.

5. Stand for your self-respect

Understand that agreeing to everything all the time about what your partner says cannot convince him to stay. 

This kind of attitude will only make him take you for granted and make him think that you are dependent on him. Your pleading can only make him hang on to the relationship for a little more, but, unfortunately, it won't be forever. Understand that if someone needs to be convinced to be with their family, they are not right for you!

6. Try to understand him

try to understand him

Different people have different preferences when it comes to showing and receiving love so try to understand what your partner is looking for and then provide the same. This should not require much effort as all you need to do is be more attentive to his needs and pay attention, just like you used to do when you were dating.

7. Work on yourself

If you want your man to never leave then you must pay attention to yourself - both mentally and physically. So other than keeping calm and being understanding towards your man, you should also make it a point to look physically appealing. A little effort from your side will ensure that your man does not leave you and your family.

Even After All The Convincing, Is He Leaving You Only A Matter Of Time?

If even after all your efforts, your man is not convinced to stay then it is better to let him go. Remember, your pleadings and your tears can stop him only for a while, but a bond built on pity won't stay forever. There are chances that his decision to break up might not have anything to do with you; therefore, no amount of effort can stop him!

Yes, letting go will indeed be difficult, but sometimes it is the only option. There is no point in being in a marriage, which makes both of you unhappy. Therefore, even if he decides to part ways, try to make sure it is mutual and without any hard feelings, especially if kids are involved.

As a last resort, you can try visiting a counselor who can help you work on your bond and make your relationship stronger.
