While relationships are amazing there are times when, for whatever reason, it is time to break up.
Maybe you have grown apart, or maybe there has been so much damage that there is no way to repair the relationship.
When this happens it's hard for some people to let go of the relationship and actually move on.
If you are confused about moving on and whether or not you can let go, learn what you can do that might help you move on.
The best thing you can do is not sit around hoping that he or she will be coming back.
If your partner wanted you, you wouldn't be broken up.
If there is a chance for a relationship in the future, he or she will let you know.
Sitting around and waiting is the worst thing that you can do.
Start doing the things that you used to do before the relationship.
Most likely you were fine before this last relationship.
Go back to those patterns so you can be happy again.
Start trying new things out now while you are free and single.
This might be big trips, goals that will take up your time, and other things like this that are harder to do when in a serious relationship.
Don't make the mistake of sitting at home and pining away.
This is only going to prolong the depression felt after the break up.
You need to instead keep busy so that you won't be thinking about it all as much.
