How to stop thinking about a guy who dumped you or is bad for you?

Maybe accepting the fact and letting yourself think those thoughts, but without really clinging to it, could help you achieve peace on the matter. The feelings won't melt away, but you can learn to get past hurtful moments over time.

Your focus should be on yourself. What I mean by this is that you have to love yourself by practicing being aware, accepting and sticking it out with your own personal goals and commitments. Doing this opens you to a world of beautiful possibilities.

Try to focus on the things bad he did for you and say to yourself that he's not the right person, but remember that you can't control love.

First, reflect on why the guy dumped you or is bad for you. Second, think about was that a correct decision. Third, if you are certain that was the right decision, then you will stop soon. After all, he will gradually become unimportant. You can also engage yourself with certain hobbies or try socialising with other people. Maybe, as a result, you may find another guy you fell in love with.

It's bad for you, they dumped you and yes that leaves an impact but you can't stay on that one guy forever when there's 7 billion other people on Earth. Stop listening to those breakup songs and make some time for just yourself.

You make a list of the pros and cons, and if the cons outweigh the pros then he's bad. Then you look at all the negativity he has released on your life

Think about your own credibility, how you deserve more. You are a better person and your life deserves more.

Try to stay bus. Usually if you are focussed on other things, your mind will not be set on the breakup or on your negative emotions about the situation

Give yourself the time you deserve. Spend time with family and friends. And in time the thoughts of your ex will go away.

Look for a more deserving candidate, to be honest. But not before being a bit self loving first. Involve in a self improvement activity, or even better make it a habit. I feel that its important to have self-worth before stepping in to the waters again.

Hang out with some friends, engage in activities, work-therapy, and generally things that will get your mind off of that guy.

Remember, it didn't work out. If you don't, you will only remember the past. However, the past is over. That can no longer be a reality. I know it can be hard, but take it step by step. Such as, step one is to completely stop mentioning him to your social circle.

There are so many other things in life, so you can concentrate on them. Besides, life isn't about this one guy who doesn't appreciate you. You'll find someone better and be happy.

Distraction works in the early stages.. And remember you have to keep yourself safe.. So that being the priority you can focus on yourself and move on..

Find support by keeping your friends close and talk about this problem with your close friends. And of course! DO NOT or at least TRY NOT to think that there was something wrong with you and that is the only reason he dumped you...everyone has their own preferences and maybe he had something different in mind so try to understand from his perspective and don't think it was your fault, don't worry! Maybe this happened for a reason so that you'll find someone better! Also, socialize and go out more...like go for a walk or animal shelter, or malls and stuff. Try to divert your mind and think of other things, there is so much to enjoy in this world :) Try to let go and have some fun.... Now if someone is bad for you, please try to think about yourself, YOU ARE IMPORTANT. I know it can be hard to let someone go, but respect yourself.

You can distract yourself with your friends, music or even activities. Not thinking about them is very hard but even just thinking about them or why you loved them can be a better alternative to why they left or how they're bad for you.

you may find it helpful to hang out with friends or do things you love. it will take your mind off of him and you’ll be able to focus on your hobbies

I know your feeling. I think that happend to everyone sometime in there life's. I know you probably heard it it and don't wanna hear it right now. Time. Time heals everything and it's so true. You can boost the progress if you distract yourself. Don't look at his social media Profils and try avoid seeing him in real life (if that is possible). And go outside. Meet new people! And you will see, you will forget him in no time! I know that it's hard to believe such things in these kind of situations. Just try to do new exciting stuff :) Take care

I am very sorry to hear that this happened to you. Hmm, well I can't give exact advice because I have not been in your exact position. However, I was in a similar position, I tried focusing on personal growth and self love. It helped to occupy my mind and promoted positive thoughts , gradually thoughts of the person lessens and when you do think of them it is not to think of them but rather of the experience and how far you have come and how much you have grown. I hope that this helps and that you know that it will get better because you are a strong and amazing person.
