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

The best approach would be to start loving someone new. But making sure that before you do move on you've thought about how he's been damaging you and others around you. And if there's something that can be done to improve the situation.

Best way to achieve this is in 2 steps. Step 1 is acceptance, so just accept that this is bothering you and dont let yourself be brought down by it so much. Step 2 is to slowly bit by bit try to replace thoughts with others. So find something else you enjoy that will occupy your mind.

Games!!! I play a lot when things like this happend. Make my mind fly to other things, is the better way to feel light.

Focus on hobbies or go out with some friends. Keep your mind busy and you eventually will forget him

I have a couple of cousins who are players. They just manipulate people, I no longer have contact with them, except if I need to put my foot down if they get out of line. Regarding the guy, move on there are a lot of great people out there. Life has its ups and downs, and all good things must come to an end.

Hey. Forget about him. If you have things that remind you of him get rid of them. Meet someone new too :)

Get out before its too late, trust me your future self will thank you for it. I'm speaking from experience.

Just stop being around things which remind you of the douchebag. Remember, some Boys will flirt with you for a while and then ignore you. Then, they will flirt with you some more. It will be confusing. You have every right to stop putting up with it. Some people are bad, and the earlier you accept this harsh truth, the better. Recovery comes with time, patience, reason and positivity. Stay strong, stay beautiful, be you

Well the most annoying part of thinking is the more you try to stop it the most you actually think. And more often than not you are going to end up thinking about the guy. Two things help stop the thinking cycle. One is meditation and the second is keeping yourself occupied and extremely busy that you dont find time to think about other things. This helps you focus on present and be positive. Cheers!

Live your life; although I understand how you feel, please don't keep yourself dwelling on the person who "broke your heart." Here's what you do: live your life, focus on things that don't remind you of that person who stole your heart...and broke it.
