We know how it feels. Your relationship has come to an end and it’s like your world has come to an end. Everything appears to be at a standstill for you. If the relationship only lasted for a few months or for a long term, the feeling can still be as devastating. Sometimes, you begin to wonder if you will ever be happy again, now that your sweetheart is out of your life. Don’t you worry about a thing, this one too shall pass away and you will smile again. The following are 10 ways to help you get through a break-up.
*Delete all contacts. This will ensure you don’t fall for the temptation of wanting to hear his voice so soon after the break -up. Chances are that you might be trying to force a comeback which might not do you any good. Forget about him and cut of all ties such as facebook, whatsapp, etc.
*Cry if you feel like it. If you think giving yourself a good cry would make you feel better, then go ahead and do so. So, don’t try to hold back the tears, let it go. You will certainly feel better.
*Distract yourself. Keep your mind preoccupied. Focus your mind, thoughts and energy on things that excite you and not things that will only break your heart the more.
*Find new hobbies. Look for things that excite you and make you feel like your life is moving forward while you’re doing them. You could try spending more time with friends and hanging out with them when they have occasions to attend.
*Spend more time with family. There is nothing like family. They will always be there for us even the whole world appears to ignore us. It’s always a nice feeling to head home after a terrible heartbreak, cry on mummy’s shoulder and let her take care of you.
*Stop blaming yourself. Playing the blame game won’t help matters and would probably not a change a thing anyway. So, forgive yourself for the mistake you may have made and move on with your life.
*Be honest about what went wrong. If it’s largely your fault that things didn’t go well, identify your mistakes and work on them, knowing you could start another relationship anytime soon and you don’t want the mistakes repeated.
*Give yourself a makeover. Go get your hair done, go shopping and buy whatever makes you feel happy. Just give yourself a treat, it will surely evacuate the depression from your mind.
*Believe in yourself. You have to assure yourself there’s somebody better out there who has been made specially for you. You must accept that your relationship ended for a reason and that there’s plenty of joy waiting for you at the end of the dark tunnel.
*At the end of the day, you need to forgive and forget. Make sure you make peace with everyone involved in your heartbreak and let it go.Â
