Block him/her off of all social media, do not speak of them or to them and avoid them. Out of sight, out of mind.

Think of the things she/he did wrong and remember why you broke up with he/she. Do not make the same mistake you or they did

Its tough, the heart hold on tight but you have to try and find distractions, distractions help. It will still be painful but you have got to be stong

To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love. But then, one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer; not to love is to suffer; to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be happy, one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness.

Find something to do. Do what you love doing, completely lose yourself in it. Think about your life, set a goal and work towards it. Set it high enough so when you get to it, you'll feel like you're on top of the world. When you do achieve it, reflect and set some more.

It really depends why it was over. But if you really do not want any contact, let them know and don't contact them. Removing their phone number is a good start, and simply avoiding them if you see them often in your life (school, work, etc.). Start doing something you enjoy, so you don't have to think about them all the time.

Removed them from all of your social media, delete them from your contacts. I write down what I would say to them in a letter and then destroy it also.

You have two options in most cases. Either completely cut them off or gradually decrease communication. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Cutting off all communication quickly: Pro- forces you two to stop talking. Con- your ex may think you are mad a them and will pester you. Gradual decrease of communication: Pro- it helps the two of you gradually adjust to life without each other. Con- you still talk to them right after the break up

Delete their number and social media and cut off all ties with them until you feel ready to look at them differently than a lover but just as a friend
