Getting over someone is such a challenge after the relationship goes off. More often than not, when “love” ends, most people find
it truly hard to put things back to pieces and move on with life.
I myself have been into relationships and I am very much
familiar with the topic of moving on. Just like everyone, forgetting the one
who I had a relationship with is just tough.
Here are some tips I can share with you when it comes to fixing
that heart which has just been broken and start life over on your own:
- Be strong.
Even before getting into a
relationship, having emotional strength is already required. How can you be in
a relationship if you are afraid to take chances? The same strength is required
when you try to forget the person who broke your heart and erase all the hurt.
- Keep yourself busy.
According to Ann Landers, “The best
way to mend a broken heart is activity.” It means that you have to be busy doing
things that you enjoy doing. In that case, you will be able to not think about those hurt feelings while you do something that interests you because the best way to forget
a person is to take him or her off your mind.
- Be optimistic.
There are billions of people in the
world and it is impossible for you not to be able to find a replacement.
- Focus on developing yourself.
Thinking positive is not enough for
you to get a rebound. Try to think of how you can develop yourself physically.
Why not work out to lose some weight and have a toned body? How about changing
your hairstyle that can help accentuate some lovely parts of your face?
Well, self- development is not
solely physical. Why not take up extra classes during your free time in order
to acquire new skills? Start reading books or attend a book club for you to
meet new faces and mingle with new people.
- Listen to music.
Of course, don’t listen to songs
that will just remind you of your past relationship. They will just put in your
mind the person you are trying to forget. Choose songs that can uplift your
spirit, songs with positive meaning, songs that can help you move on…
- Go out and talk to family and friends.
Remember that even when a
relationship ends, the world does not stop moving. There is no need to dwell on the
sad feeling and wallow in the misery of being left by a partner. It does not
mean that nobody loves you and you are all alone in this world. You still have
friends and family members who you can talk to and spend time with. Go out with
them. Go shopping or see movies with them! I bet they all have some pieces of
advice to share with you to help you move on with life after a break up.
- Pray.
To most people, this is really
helpful. We have to believe that there is someone much more powerful than us
who can help, lead and tell us what to do.
- Love yourself more.
Life is nothing without love. If
love ceases after a break up, it does not mean that you should lose that love you
have for yourself as well. Take this opportunity to love yourself more! As the
saying goes, “You cannot be loved unless you learn to love yourself.” So, for you to be
loved again, you have to love yourself. And since, you are looking for someone
better, you ought to love yourself more!
