How to Survive a Broken Heart
- 1). First and foremost, be honest with yourself. Think back to when you felt good about yourself. Remind yourself there is a tomorrow and then promise this experience has been a learning lesson, and mean it.
- 2). Is he good for you? If you're feeling blue then most likely the guy is not, or was not, good for you anyway. You are better off without him.
- 3). Chances are you are going to want to go back to her. Familiar territory, even if it's bad, is easier than tackling the unknown. Try to stay away from her and avoid the places she normally goes.
- 4). If you are unable to stay away, explain to him he isn't good for you. Tell your friends you wish to stay away from him and ask them to help you find new places to go.
- 5). Stay busy so you don't dwell on what has happened. If you have time on your hands treat yourself to something you enjoy such as a movie, a trip to the museum or a fishing expedition.
- 6). Remember to be good to yourself. This is important and you should do this everyday, but sometimes we punish ourselves because we feel we have failed. You haven't failed, just moved on.
- 7). Spend time with positive people. Surround yourself with those who appreciate you. Remember you are important and you must live with yourself first. If you aren't good to yourself, others will not treat you any better.
