Try to distract yourself, exercise, play sports, and those thoughts eventually will go away. They will no matter what with time when you start meeting other people.

You can try distracting yourself by meeting new people and going out with friends... Also remind yourself that you broke up with your ex based on a valid reason.

When my boyfriend left me alone without any advertising, I felt so bad I went through depression. But in time I realized I didn't need anyone who didn't deserve me or really love me. I started to appreciate myself and life, because we are both wonderful!

Stay busy and keep your mind on positive self motivating things! We too often let failed relationships take up a lot of our time. When something fails there is a lesson to be learned, if we can be aware of this lesson learn from it and move on, getting past a mistake is much easier.

It is truly a tough thing to do, but you can start by stop sulking about it and channelizing your anger towards a constructive thing. For instance, start writing, or sketching, or cooking. Be busy, and you won't have time to think about your ex.

There are many ways to stop thinking about your Ex. Remember, you loved your Ex boyfriend/girlfriend and you probably still do; there is nothing you can do to change that. A few good ways to stop thinking about him/her are to find a job with children, like babysitting, or tutoring. These jobs require you to be full-time; and don't give you time to think about your Ex. They are also enjoyable, fun, and even earn you money; which also makes you feel more confident. Another good way is too go back to the times before him/her with a movie or a book you used to love. If these do not work, it is best to examine your problem; and maybe even try and become friends with your Ex again, so you aren't as lonely.

From my experience-Get engaged;get busy. Don't sit idle! Interact and spend more time with friends and family. Music really does help. And try your best to avoid anything that connects you with your ex. Don't expect quick results. It will take time and that's completely normal. Tc! :)
