Go through the pain, grieve, and dont run. Surround yourself with people you love, friends family, confide in someone close to you. make friends and get out into the world. The best advice was given to me by my uncle, he said now you have to do "you" you have to focus on yourself and better your life. That stuck with me, i had forgotten how to be by myself, how to be just geno, and now i am starting to figure it out. Im not going to tell you it gets easier... but you get better. You are strong, you are beautiful and you are everything you need to be. It didnt work out because it wasnt supposed to. Your future is waiting for you, now go find it
I believe in a breakup you have to take it 1 step at a time. Firstly try not being to close with your ex cause that will only cause more confusions, Secondly try filling your time doing other things like sports or going out with friends things like that, Thirdly always give yourself room to heal if you have to cry then do it. Lastly never hold on it only makes you feel worst.

Talking about it helps, but mainly it's up to you to understand why the relationship ended, and find healthy closure.

Be excited about the new and better person you will be with next! life is too short to be sad, life is exciting.
Try and ask him to see if he'll go out with you again or ask someone else too (if it doesn't work)
Accept that it happened. Look for the positives from you gained. Identify where you failed. Move on. Don't try to stop thinking about. Choose to stop thinking about it. It's much easier.

In my experience what helps is getting into new relationships, they don't have to be relationships with romance involved, but for haps the best way of getting over break ups is moving on.
Think of your breakup as a learning experience in life that you can refer back to when in future relationships. Appreciate the time you have spent with that individual and realize that like time people lapse as well. Hope for the best for both yourself and them in order to move on despite what you or that person has contributed to the relationship. It is important to remember that a relationship involves two parties with two very different ideals and if those ideals complement each other then the relationship will grow and progress. If they fail to complement each other this will eventually lead to a separation of ideals which will lead to a breakup. You can only move forward with forgiveness.

I'd say the best way to get over a break up is to move on. Find new men/women. There are plenty of fish in the sea! :D

Best way to get over a breakup depends on the type of breakup and what you like to do. Personally I think ice cream movies pizza and being surrounded by people who are there for you is a great way to get over a breakup

The best way to get over a break up is to talk about it with someone you really trust. Don't be afraid to talk about how you feel and always be honest with yourself.
Accept that the relationship was no longer good for either of you involved and that is okay. Since it wasn't good for either of you it was necessary at this point for both of you to move on and heal and I think the healing process begins there.

Occupy yourself and start a project, painting or diy, anything, and don't let yourself dwell on what had been or what you wanted from it. Time will heal, always.

The best way to get over a break up is to talk to a friend or family member and to go out and have fun, so you can distract yourself and be happy instead of thinking about the break up.

The best way to get over a break up is to take the time that's needed, not to rush, accept the feelings going through the mind and body. Do something you enjoy, but take time to listen to yourself and work with your emotions. A good way to do that, is to talk with someone you trust. That's my experience of getting over a break up.
Feel your pain, understand it, understand yourself, and when you are ready, forgive and let go of your past
Try not to dwell on what your ex is doing or if they are with someone new. Hide all stuff that reminds you of them. You don't need to throw them away yet.
Moving on such as doing activities and connecting with friends and family to keep your mind off of the break up. Keeping busy and staying strong will help in the long run.

to let out all the pain in your heart by crying and talking as much as you need to. to remember all the good and the bad and to take it day by day and slowly let go with time. to spend time with friends and family who love you and to appreciate those people who are around you. to focus on yourself and what you want to achieve in your life.
Honestly, the best way to get over a break-up is to just give it time. Make new friends, explore things with other people. You could also get therapy for a break-up because some people are seriously affected by stuff like that.
The best way to get over a break up is to give yourself time. Put your focus on yourself, and do the things you like to do. Sometimes in relationships, you lose yourself a little bit. So get to know who you are again. The feelings you feel during a breakup are okay and normal. and Those feelings are also temporary. So when you feel ready, spend time with friends, exercise, and try new things. Remember that you'll get through this.

best way to get over a break up is to do you. worry bout yourself and where you need to be in life. also try to stay away from the person as well
is to let the time heal you heart and let your feelings and tak about them. Just wait and the right time will come
It's a bit of a combination in my opinion: recovering fully plus stepping into the next bit of our life.
On the one hand, we need to grieve over the relationship - even if we ended it. We need to allow the right amount of time for our situation, however long or short that is. So we need to cry, rant, talk, and so on. We need to take it easy, look after ourselves, get extra sleep, - and let others look after us too. Perhaps we decide to talk about the relationship with a professional.
And then there comes a time it would help us to start easing back into life. Start simple: go for a coffee with friends, walk the dog, spend some time on a craft project. Do one thing a week that you love doing, or used to love doing. (Sometimes in a relationship, we forget who we are, and always do what our partner wants)
If people are pressuring you to "move on", "meet someone new", and so on, they might mean well, but only you know what's right for you. Ensure you are balancing grieving, healing, and moving on.

Look at your family. Make them smile. Go out with your friends and know your worth. Do whatever pleases you
The best way to get over a break is to reconnect with yourself. Spend time with friends or family, treat yourself to a nice meal at home or at one of your favourite restaurants.
Surround yourself with family and friends who arent friends with the person you were just with and try your best to have fun
As counter intuitive as it may sound: feel the pain, and once in pain take 2 steps. One, recall things you resent and -in imagination- reveal them to him/her, get them off your chest. Two, once that is done, proceed to express gratitude for all the good times. Close this chapter by saying goodbye. Watch your relationship sail away... and that's that. Mourn as necessary when needed. I cried a lot.
