HOW TO OVERCOME A BREAKUP?

Going through a breakup can be the most devastating thing that can happen to anyone. Love is something that is inevitable in a person's life; so is the pain that it leaves behind! But trust me, this pain won't last forever! You'll get through everything really soon!

 

The first thing you have to do after a breakup is accept the fact that the person is not in your life anymore. It has to be the most painful feeling, but it is the truth. If you keep on brushing away the truth, your life will get miserable. Healing doesn't happen overnight. You might feel shattered sometimes during the process; don't hesitate to start over from the beginning. Keep yourself busy and engaged all the time.

It's okay to be single for a while, but try to heal yourself completely before you get into another relationship. Try to go with the flow. But never use a person just to forget your past. It's normal to feel lonely after a breakup, so make yourself your best friend and a companion. Hang out with your friends more often. Take care of your health by exercising regularly. Eat clean and sleep well. Try to analyse your mistakes in the relationship and start working on them to make yourself a better person. If you feel that you are the reason for the breakup and that you have done something wrong, take responsibility for your actions. Try to talk to the person so that you get the closure you want. This might help you heal faster. But never ever beg them to stay, and never think of seeking revenge if things don't turn out the way you want them to.

If your ex gets into a new relationship soon after the breakup, respect their choice because you can't do anything about it. Delete their contacts and try to distance yourself from them. There might be someone waiting for you, and they'll come to you when the timing is right. Until then, try to enjoy your own company. Realise that there is a world outside your smartphones where you can have actual fun. As Michael Penn once said, "Knowing when it is over is the beginning of a new life and the end of an old one."
