The hardest pains in life seem to come when you have a bad break up with someone you loved. This how to will try to get you over your ex.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Things You’ll Need:

  • Change of mind-set
  • Concentration
Step1
First, put everything that reminds you of her or him, such as pictures, fragrance, notes etc.... in a box and put it away. Leave it in a spot that you literally have to dig for to look at it.
Step2
One of the hardest things to do is delete the number off the phone. Its not completely necessary but it will help in forgetting your ex.
Step3
Keep busy. Always try to keep busy. If you need more stuff to do, than write something. Write a story, novel, screen play, articles, anything! Write, write and write. Keep yourself focused on other things besides the ex.
Step4
Make yourself feel good by working hard, working out hard and coming home taking off your shoes and relax. Focus on yourself entirely and he/she will start missing you.
Step5
Hang out with your friends and try to relax. Of course your ex will be on the back of your mind but keep it back there. Don't show it in front of your friends.
Step6
If you want her/him back, let them try to come back to you. Don't try forcing your way back into their lives. It's important to let the ex know that you are able and capable of moving on. That's when they would want you back more.

Tips & Warnings

  • It's hard but just stay focused on you
  • Realize that you can do a lot for yourself
  • Work hard and relax hard
