People come in and out of our lives for a billion different reasons that are not always easy to identify. When we disconnect from those who played a positive role in who we are, it can be painful to let go of that connection. That type of loss can sometimes cause grief and require mourning. That person came into your life for a very important reason--to be a part of your personal growth and process--and moved on when it was time. Identify what their purpose for you may have been and hold onto that purpose rather than the whole person. Some people also find it beneficial to write a goodbye letter to whomever it is they're losing, not to actually send, but to process through the grief.

Get rid of all their stuff and all the things they gave you. If you don't get rid of all that, then you'll constantly be reminded of the memories you shared with that person. Pick up a new hobby or do something fun to get your mind off them.

There's no way you will ever really get over them. All you can do is take time and realize why it was for the better that you two parted ways. It was for the better, not matter how great the pain might be. Never turn back.

Find something new to help maintain your well-being. Some THING, not ONE. Relying on someone for happiness is a very unhealthy move. Find a replacement activity.

For me it is knowing that I can provide that to someone as well, and that I know i can get better on my own.

Getting over someone who played such an immense role in your mental well being is very difficult. It is hard to learn how to get through life without them, but it definitely can be done. You need to realize your self-worth, and how great it is, and then you need to realize that you are better off without this person. You are free to find yourself, discover what you are passionate about, concentrate on yourself as a whole, and find ways to love yourself that make up for this person being gone. Filling a void is hard, but if you constantly keep yourself busy with GOOD activities and thoughts, then you will succeed.
