Stop talking to your ex

This is the first thing you should do after a breakup. It is impossible to start life from scratch if you carry the burden of the past everywhere. Therefore, it is so important to get rid of the slightest presence of him in your life: stop looking for meetings, follow his social media accounts, talk about him with your mutual friends. Give up all this.

Give yourself permission for a week

Allow yourself just for 7 days to forget about prohibitions and restrictions. If you want something, then go ahead! Make a purchase that you have long dreamed of, eat what you have always denied yourself, watch movies with a bottle of wine, or go to a bookstore and stock up on a stack of your favorite literature.

Trust your friends

Breaking up a relationship, even for the strongest and most persistent, is a blow. Moreover, the blow, including on self-esteem, because no matter how self-confident we may be, after a break, the thought “Something is wrong with me” will slip somewhere. Ask your friends for help, they will definitely be able to find the right words to support and not allow you to develop the idea that the whole problem was only in you.

change something

It can be a wardrobe: buy a couple of feminine items. This could be your room: do it yourself. It could be your hairstyle: update it or change it beyond recognition. It could be where you are right now: take a little trip home or to another country.



Work

If you still constantly think about him, then the only thing that will help you is work. Load yourself with business, do not leave yourself a single free minute. Come home tired enough to go straight to bed. And so on until everything is gone. Until the thoughts subside and you return to normal.

Chat

Make new acquaintances. Let it be a nice young man with whom you are interested. You don't have to have romantic feelings for him. Just allow yourself to be attractive to other men as well.



Cafe

And not only cafes: cinema, festivals, dances. Don't drop out of life just because it hurts. Believe me, it will become much easier for you to cope with the gap when you find yourself inside the seething life.
