What's the best way to cope with your ex-significant other moving on when you still cannot?

Tough question! The real key here is to grieve. You have to grieve what you once had and realize that it isn't going to happen again. That can be sad and take time to heal. However, once through that, you can begin to realize that many times in life, bad things or unexpected things happen to us and they, ultimately, end up being for the better. It doesn't seem so at the time. Human, however, are very resilient and we have a great tendency to bounce back. In short, give yourself time, grieve, and realize that you are on your own unique path.

Learning to cope with your ex- significant other moving on when you cannot is a very difficult thing. I think this is something that everyone handles in different ways. One of the first things to remember is that it wasn't your fault that they moved on. The feeling of love cannot be controlled. Just as they can not control that they moved on, you can not control that you still have feelings. In this time, love yourself. Know that you are valued and that you will one day move on. It may not be today or tomorrow, but it will be one day. Keep your head up.

The best way that worked for me was to actually accept the reality that my ex-significant is moving on with his life and I cannot control that. No matter how much I wanted him to stay with me or in the relationship, it will not happen anymore. The first step was to face the fact that he's moving on. After that..everything else followed.

I think the best way to cope with the situation is to remember that everyone deals with things differently its not a one size fits all scenerio. Them moving on doesn't mean they didn't love you as much as you loved hem. Everyone is just different, so where you may take a little longer to move on than they have, know that everyone copes and heals differently and that's okay.

Do not check up on him. Don't check who he's dating, what he is doing etc. Focus on yourself and your happiness. If he can move on, so do you. Focus on your needs, you want happiness, find happiness and enjoy it. You want love, find it. Distract yourself from the thought of him.

Accept the situation. It may not be as easily done , But Its the need of the hour. Finding a new hoppy, new activity and a new interest group helps immensely. One may feel sad and dejected once in a while, please accept the sadness as well, it allows the healing to work faster. Above everything be brave and remember that this too shall pass.

I feel as though the best thing to do is enjoy the company of your friends and family and do the things you enjoy. You don't need to feel as if there is a competition to move on. You'll be ready when it feels right.

I dont think there is a "best" way to cope... everyone is different,and not everything works for everyone the same way..

focus on friends, focus on activities, focus on stuff that didn't involve them, find things that make you happy.

The best way to cope is to focus on yourself, you deserve better than to ponder with your past. Moving on is a great feeling because you're able to learn to love yourself again, fix yourself right up and start new.
