When a relationship fails, you may find that tears and pleading no longer have any effect. Though your first reaction may be to panic, the most important fact is not to display too much emotion. Overly emotional reactions may have the opposite effect of driving away your loved one. You need to avoid any behavior that will confirm that a breakup is the best action to take. Playing cool and calm may have a surprising calming effect on your partner too. You want to avoid doing or saying anything that justifies the breakup. You want to show that you have the strength to walk away from saving your relationship as well, and by showing that, you may save the day.
