There are different suggestions I can give...
I had a question, sort of like this one, a while back. Thanks to CuxMiBeckNow7 there are 3 sites I would recommend to you. You can check them out if you are on the computer often, or alone with too much time to think.
One of the things I was able to do is keep my priorities straight and think about other things as much as I could. Sadly, being alone or letting yourself think too much about your past with that person won’t make you get over it soon at all.
Here are some things I did:
If you’re lying in bed before you go to sleep, put some head phones on, or watch TV for a little bit to distract yourself.
MAKE yourself think of something/someone else.
If you start to think of him right away think of, what you’re going to wear the next day, what you've got to get done, how good your day was, what you'd like to improve, or even think of ALL the really good things going on in your life. (Just NOT him.)
During the day time, keep yourself busy too.
Like I said before, in my opinion, the biggest thing is to never give yourself the time to think about him.
Even if you can't go anywhere draw a picture, listen to music, clean your room, check out the sites above, just do anything you’re allowed/able to. Keep your mind busy on other things and eventually it'll become natural and you hopefully won't think about him at all. I can't stress it enough I'm sorry. It's just always a killer.
I never suggest rebounds. I don't agree with them, and I don't think they are necessary, or fair to either person.
For me it takes time and patients in the beginning. I REALLY had to make sure that I didn't allow myself to continue to think about the guy.
I would also dance, work out, do things to improve myself, and think of nice things I could do for all my friends and family so my mind was constantly going and thinking about POSITIVE things, that I didn't have time to think about the guy whether my thoughts about him were good or bad.
Anyway, I just know how hard breaking up after being together for all that time can be and those were the things that worked best for me, like I said. Other than that, I think only time itself will help you completely get over him sweetie. I hope this helped at least a little. Good luck. =) [ Ava29's advice column | Ask Ava29 A Question ]
