How can I stop talking to my ex after a breakup?

Whether you or the ex have initiated the breakup it's usually very uncomfortable to interact after a breakup. Do you attend the same school or work place? Is the population in which you encounter the ex small? Tell me more ...

After a breakup, not talking to your ex proves to be exceedingly hard. It's a drastic change in habit and the best way to break that habit is to distract yourself, reach out to friends more than usual, keep busy. I always found that not carrying my phone everywhere helped a lot.

Take it slow. Think of it as detoxing. Slowly breaking off contact until one day you won't feel you have to anymore. Try to stay away from social media for one whole day. Try to keep yourself from checking your phone every chance you get. If you feel like you really can't stop yourself and you really want to talk to your ex, try to send the message to a trusted friend instead (it may be helpful to let them know too beforehand). Or buy a notebook and write everything you want to say to your ex instead. It's going to be very difficult, but everything will start in that first step-- making the decision to try. One step at a time, one day you won't feel that you have to try anymore.

You can kindly (and without drama or triggering words) ask your ex not to contact you. If he/she doesn't respect your boundaries, block their number, email, Facebook, Instagram, and any and all means of contacting you. You may have to change your phone number as I have in the past. If they continue to physically insert themselves into your life after you've asked them not to, you'll have to contact the police and file a restraining order. If this seems too extreme, then I would say that from personal experience, you really don't want to sever the connection and you have to explore the reasons why you are not willing to sever contact with someone who clearly does not respect your well-being or wishes.

Ah, this can definitely be a difficult time and it does vary from person to person. I recently went through a breakup after being in the relationship for 3 years, and it wasn't easy for me. The first thing I decided to do was just cry it out. I needed to let all of my emotions out and that helped immensely. Over the course of a couple of months, I was able to return the items my ex-partner had given me and discard of any items that reminded me of them. I also removed the the pictures/messages/videos that we had together. I decided to take it another step further and start setting goals for myself (ex. I am going to participate in Tough Mudder this year). My focus shifted from "us" to "me". I began to realize that I needed to better myself in any way that I could and focus on my happiness, something that shouldn't be determined because of someone else. I hope this helps you as well. Sending love and hugs your way!

First of all, you have to acknowledge the end. This happened to me often, as I usually end up in denial after the breakup and refuse to let go of connections. I keep on pursuing friendships with my exes soon after, because I don't want to believe that we were never going to get back together again. I held on to the inkling of the possibility that such mutual feelings could be rekindled, and kept on hurting myself again and again in the process. With that acknowledgement, cut off all contact--whether it be social media or text messages, block him/her. In this time period, you can concentrate more on yourself, taking time to invest in yourself better.

Remove him from all your social media stop calling him dtop texting him If he contacts you ignore him , exercise is a great tool to get over a breakup.It releases endorphins which is a chemical your body releases to make you happy.join a gym, go for a swim, or play any sport you like. as long as your moving your booty, you are helping yourself get over the breakup and stop obsessing over your ex

That's easier said then done. You HAVE to want to, and you HAVE to follow through with it. What I've done in the past is delete them from my phone, social media, and anything else that will remind me of them. Like I always say, and ex is an ex for a REASON. There are so many people out there. Why waste it crying over one person.

It's going to take a lot of strength and self-control on your part, but you are capable of it. Depending on how far you would like to go, there are a number of steps you can take to relieve the temptation to talk. Hide, block or unfriend them on social media. Delete or block their phone number. Try to avoid situations where you know you will be around one-another such as parties. When you get an urge to talk to your ex, try talking to another friend or family member instead. Ceasing contact with an ex can be difficult, but sometimes it is a crucial part of moving on after a breakup.

Breakups can be devastating sometimes, but You know what besides dating we have Life, friends, work, Family, we have ourselves to care about. So failure in a relationship, shouldn't lead to failure in life. Simply say YOU DESERVE BETTER
