Stacey asks: “How do I get Richard to come back to me”

The Red Magician Tarot answers: Five of Disks.

Any force, manipulation, or plot you attempt will only put a strain on you for no good reason. You are not going to make Richard to come back to you. Anyone who promises you otherwise is lying to you about your chances or lying to you about the price you will pay to attempt it.

If you really want him back, you need to take a long hard look at why he left. If something broke in the relationship, demonstrate that you are willing to fix it. If he left for someone else, however, you will need to face what was it that you were not able to offer him and, what is it that he is able to find with that someone else. The Five of Disks says that the cost of trying to get him to come back to you will be more than what you are capable of paying.
