To move on from an ex you once loved, you must first cut off all contact and let go of the connection you desired. Our past relationships are preserved in our memories, emotions, and teachings.
It is difficult to move on from a broken relationship since it eventually boils down to loving yourself.
A lingering love may keep you from having a happy future. We’ve all experienced the agony of horrible love. It makes no difference what occurred or who was right or wrong. The bottom truth is that it hurts and holds you back from growing.
While time is the most powerful healer, there are five things you can do to help:
End All Contact
Do this for a short period of time. Do not be friends. Having an ex in your life is not a sign of maturity; but, learning to care for yourself is.
Stop fantasising
There is a reason why a relationship ends. It’s not completely surprising given that things haven’t been going well for a while. What each person did or did not do often results in a long series of conflicts and wounded feelings. The majority of people do not want their previous relationship to be revived. But instead, they miss the relationship they might have had if things had turned out differently.
Embrace the past
It is easier to forgive and make peace with the past when you focus on the people involved rather than the events themselves. Most people do not hurt others; they do things to make themselves feel better. For better or worse, human nature favours self-interest above the consequences it brings to others. It won’t make it right, but it may help you understand the issue and make it less personal.
Love them
Love is unbreakable. When someone enters your life and makes you feel appreciated, it is always a gift. Maturity is realising that love isn’t always enough to make a relationship work. Timing, competing values, and our choices all play a role in a relationship’s success. However, quitting a terrible relationship does not imply abandoning your emotions. When you really care about someone, you want the best for them even if it means you won’t be able to spend time with them.
Self-acceptance
Moving forward from a broken relationship boils down to self-love. This is tough for some people. To feel that you deserve a meaningful relationship with someone who shares your values and treats you well, you must have a sense of self-worth. If the thought of this overwhelms you due to negative self-doubt, criticism, or self-loathing, you may need to seek professional help. Nobody can take care of you better than you take care of yourself.
The Bottom Line
We need others to see us clearly. Every connection reflects what we put out into the world. Recognize that a failed relationship isn’t the end of the world. If you grew as a person and learned something new, it was a success. If it gets too lonely, take a little stroll in a vibrator store.
