6 Fool-Proof Ways To Get Over A Breakup

In This Article:

Breakups are so hard, however you are strong enough to overcome it!

Delete him from social media.

This one is extremely hard it is natural to want to keep up with him after the breakup, but I am telling you it will feel a lot better not knowing what he is doing constantly. I am a huge believer it out of sight out of mind!

Get rid of everything he gave you.

If you have his clothes all around or are constantly seeing pictures of him around your room you will constantly be reminded of what you lost which is not healthy. I do not want you to think by me saying this that you should throw all of his stuff away because that's not the case, but I do think you should put it all in a box and set the box away for a while.

Keep yourself busy.

You will most likely want to just lay in bed all day feeling sad, but I think it's better to keep yourself busy so you don't have to think about him all the time.

Work on yourself.

The best thing about a breakup is you have a chance to focus on yourself. This is the chance to really love yourself!

Don't rush through the break-up phase.

Everyone moves on at different paces, the key is to not feel pressure to move on earlier than you are ready. Take this time to do your thing, but don't let yourself rush through because you feel like you need to be over the breakup.

Surround yourself with the people who love you.

When going through a breakup it's common to feel like you are alone, but if you surround yourself with the people who love you its easier not to feel alone.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.
