When it feels like you can't stop thinking about an ex, it may help to think about *why* you are thinking about them. 1) What is going on in your life that is causing you to think about the past? Are you unhappy with something in your life right now? Was that thing better in the past, and you are somehow transferring that aspect of your life to the relationship? 2) When you think about your ex, what about them are you thinking about? For someone is bad for you, what about them are you attracted to? How do you see yourself in the relationship?

Remember that if a guy dumped you, then he has not seen your worth, so really, it's actually his loss. hold your head up high.

Time makes it easy, you will gradually stop thinking about that guy over time, but you make sure to do few other things like no contacts with him, removing or destroying all the stuff related to him, stop listening to sad songs, dont do anything to try to make him jealous, stop going over his social networking profiles. just go and busy yourself. i hope it works

Just think, he dumped you because he cannot handle how awesome you are! And you deserve better than him!

Let yourself grieve. Know that it wasn't your fault or he isn't the last person who can love or give to you the love you deserve. Guys leave for the simple fact that they can't do anymore to change the situation or unwilling to make changes for you both as a couple. It is a normal thing, but it's not normal to stay in an unhealthy relationship when you're doing all the work and programming, understanding the individual and they give you littlw time to do or talk to each other. It isn't a real relationship if that's the case, if it were then he would be willing to compromise or sacrifice at least something to make it seem like you're worth it, just as much as you prove he is on a daily basis. Don't ever forget yourself and lose you when loving someone else because it's a hard thing to rediscover yourself and make new changes although it's always a fun and new experience to know yourself better ☺

Know that you are a strong person who deserves someone better. If a guy dumped you and gave you no logical reason as to why, it's probably not meant to be. And if the guy is bad for you, then you just saved yourself from a possible crisis experience.

First, be aware that this guy is not going to be a good companion for you in life. The reason you would want a companion is loneliness, boredom and insecurity. If that person cannot provide means to help you, please reconsider how you think about them. Next, you tell yourself, that no matter how good-looking that guy is, he might actually be an asshole. You tell yourself no matter how good and humble he seemed at first, he's not anymore. Moving on takes a lot of self-push and even more inspiration. So try your best!

Remind yourself that they do not/did not deserve you and that they did not appreciate you as much as they should have. Be glad that you are free of such a one-sided relationship and spend time with a pet if you have one. They are surprisingly comforting!
