    Although it might be the last thing you want to do right now, go ahead and give your Sag some time to themselves to make her miss you. [1] She needs to know that you can make it on your own, so go out and live your own life full of adventure. [2] If you come crawling back to her, she might stick with her initial decision. [3]
    • Hang out with friends, dive into your career, or go on a solo road trip. You don’t have to give her space forever, but try to wait until she reaches out to you first.
    • If you trust your Sagittarius enough to give her space, she will come closer. If you try to control or micromanage her, she won't be able to deal with it. [4]

Act like you aren’t upset.

    Although it might feel like your world is ending, if you show up on her doorstep crying or post a long, sad story about her, she’s not going to be super happy. Try to keep your emotions to yourself, and talk about them with a close friend if you need to. The more you can act like you’re okay, the more you can make her miss you.
    • She’ll appreciate this because she’s probably going to do the same thing. Sag women tend to keep their emotions bottled up, so they don’t love it when other people wear theirs on their sleeves.

Ask for her forgiveness if you messed up.

    If you know you hurt her feelings or made her angry, offer a sincere apology to see if she can forgive you. She might hold onto her anger for a little while longer, but eventually, she’ll probably be able to move on. [5]
    • You might say something like, “I’m so sorry that I didn’t make enough time for you in our relationship. It wasn’t right, and I can understand why it made you upset.”
    • The key here is only to apologize if you truly mean it. Sagittariuses are like lie detectors: if you’re not telling the truth, they’re going to know.

Be completely honest with her.

    If you’re trying to win her back, don’t sugarcoat your words or make promises you can’t keep. For a Sagittarius woman like her, lying is one of the worst things you can do—so make sure everything you say is true.
    • Even if it’s something that might not be super nice for her to hear, she’ll still appreciate your honesty more than anything.

Be prepared for a few insults.

    If your breakup was a little messy or she feels like you wronged her in some way, you may have to endure a few insulting words. Try to power through, and remember that this is her way of processing her emotions and working through what happened.
    • The nice thing about Sagittariuses, though, is that once they work through things, they usually don’t hold a grudge.

    She won’t want to hear things like this all the time, but even Sagittarius women aren’t immune to a little flattery every now and then. You can tell her how much she means to you or how happy you are that she’s in your life. Try things like:
    • “I’m really glad we reconnected. I would’ve been really sad if I never got to see you again.”
    • “I’m so happy that you’re in my life. You’re an amazing person to be around.”

Focus on being friends, not partners.

    When you two start seeing each other again, don’t try to immediately jump back into a relationship. Instead, treat her like you’d treat a really good friend: be there for her, listen to her, and spend a lot of time with her. She’ll appreciate that you aren't trying to rush anything and that you’re content with just being friends for now.
    • There’s no set timeline for how long you might just have to focus on friendship, but expect to spend a few weeks (or even months) being her friend before she considers a relationship with you again.

    If you try to rope a Sag woman into a conversation about her feelings, you might just send her running for the hills. Instead, talk about casual, fun things, like what you’re doing that weekend or how your job is going. She’ll appreciate that you aren’t trying to trap her into a heavy conversation, which might send her right back into your arms.
    • For instance, you might say, “Just went frisbee golfing for the first time! It was really fun, I think you’d like it.”
    • Or, “Did you get into anything fun this weekend?”

    If there’s one thing Sagittarius women can’t stay away from, it’s a fun time! [6] You can try reconnecting with her by asking her to take a trip or a fun day out with you. Somewhere outdoorsy is always a good choice, but you know her best. [7]

    Instead of bringing up all the stuff that you two did before, focus on what you’re doing right now and how much fun you’re having. If you constantly wallow in what went wrong or all your old memories together, she’s probably not going to be open to seeing you again. [10]
    • For example, you might say something like, “I’m so happy we’re spending time together again. I’m having a lot of fun with you.”
    • Or, “Isn’t this nice? I love taking adventures with you.”

    Sagittarius women aren’t ones for focusing on the past, but they do think about the future a lot. If you can promise her that things will be different from now on, she might just take you back.
    • For instance, you might say, “I really think that we could work out now. I’ve grown a lot, and I’m sure you have too, so why don’t we give this another shot?”
    • Or, “Are you open to trying this again? I’ve learned a lot from our time together, and I think I could be a better partner to you.”

    Expert Answer
    A Sagittarius might come back if they sense that you aren't trying to control them. Being controlled is a real trigger for them, and they're more likely to approach you if you give them space.
