How to Get Over an Ex

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Jessica Claire and I'm a professional dating coach here in New York City for New York Dating Coach. In this clip, we're going to talk about how to get over an ex. There is no easy way to do this I know, they say that for as long as you're together, its going to take one third of that time to get over that person. So if you were together for three years, look forward to almost a year of maybe not hard struggle, but light struggle and just getting that person out of your mind. Now rule number one, you have to except that there are going to be things that are going to remind you of that person. So if that person rode a bike for example, every time you see someone on a bike you might think of them. The key is to as soon as you realize that you are thinking about that person, put it out of your mind and think about something else. The more that you're diligent about keeping that person out of your thoughts, the easier its going to become over time. If in week one you think about them everyday, maybe in week two you'll think about them six days of the week. In week three, five days of the week. Constantly keep yourself on track. I think that getting over an ex is the kind of thing where you can sort of fall off the wagon and feel like things might work out again someday.
