From time to time, you miss him or her. You wish you were still together. It becomes really difficult if you invested years, time and effort into the relationship before it fell apart. But you have to move past it. Its too much burden for one person especially if the person you’re slowly killing yourself over already has a new partner. Here are ways to move on with your life:

1. Focus On Your Peace

There is nothing like peace of mind. To achieve this, you must take yourself out of that relationship mentally and emotionally. Why hope that someone who left you suddenly will have a change of heart and come back? Prioritize yourself and your peace of mind to be free from the pain, regret and disappointment. It is even better if you just do away with everything that makes you remember them including their phone number. Before you know it, you’ve finally moved on.

2. Closure Is Key

Most times, goodbyes comes with a lot of questions you are meaning to ask. This is why i’ll always encourage closure after every breakup even if some people will prefer to have nothing to do with that. That talk you think you should shy away from can help you discover the truth about yourself and even make you tweak some of the thing you do but shouldn’t do. Trust me, this is a great way to finally be free from the emotions you’ve attached to your ex.

3. Focus On Yourself

You might think this is overrated but there is a reason this is one of the first solutions to an emotional-sapping breakup. Accept that the relationship is gone and forge ahead. We agree that this is difficult to do but you need to have some alone-time. Take your mind off him or her and add to your knowledge by travelling, reading books, having new experiences. Meet new people, make new friends and in no time, you’re free to start something new.
