Well? You really gotta give yourself some time really, if you try hard to shut them out of your mind, it could backfire and make you more upset. Why dont you let the thoughts come and the feelings come and allow them to flow through and get processed, that gives you a chance to actually heal.

The best way, is to stop, and really take time for yourself. do things that he/she normally never wanted to do. Like go, and see that movie they didn't want to see, or go and take a girls night out, or guys night out with your buddies/girlfriends, and re-connect! The more you focus on either family, or yourself, the less important the ex will seem.

You need to stop thinking him, eat some ice-cream, have a girl's night, or if you're a guy, do something else with your friends. Just make sure you always have something/someone else on your mind.

If you have anything of theirs, get rid of it! Pictures, clothes, anything that has a memory of your ex.

It is a choice to think about them. Need to figure out what it is that you desire from the relationship and let it go and choose to let it go. It is the attachment to something that causes the suffering. Free your self

Involve yourself in other activities. Probably spend more time with your current love. The heart of a human being is like a container. it needs to be filled all the time. If you are with someone else , you will forget the x.

Just remember that everything happens for a reason and if it were meant to be, it would still be. The one will come!

Distracting negative thoughts is key. Perhaps make a list of things you like or would like to do and when youre feeling down you can choose an activity. Look forward to the future, maybe you can set yourself some personal goals to work towards. It is also true that having a support system such as friends, family or even a professional to chat to or just hang out with is immensely beneficial.
