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

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.
