This is one that really strikes home! From my personal experience, the only thing that really solves this is time. You have to find things that center you and build you up. For me, that was joining the gym. It did wonders for relieving my stress and it's something that has remained an integral part of my identity today. Not to mention it's a massive confidence booster.

Take some time for yourself. You know you the best and how you can heal. Find ways that you're comfortable when dealing with the hurt. But don't stop yourself from having fun!

Best thing to do is distract yourself, get your self out with your friends and family, get advice off them about how you feel, concentrate on your hobbies or interests or work. Eventually, you will feel free from their presence :)

A part of you can never move on an this is a sad truth but another part will move on to another relationship with the same if not more happiness. It's just a part and parcel of life.

By giving yourself time, and investing in yourself. Usually when a long term relationship ends, you have to rebuild your own self esteem and get back on your feet. Give you some time for grief, and then slowly start to rebuild yourself, through talking to friends, doing some sport, reading, ... whatever floats your boat. But especially give yourself time :)

I was with someone for two and a half years, and things ended badly so I had no other choice than to move on. What worked for me was focusing on myself and doing things that made me happy. (Writing, reading, painting, etc.) Doing those things really helped distract me, and they made me forget about the negative situation that was happening. There is a someone for everyone, and in the mean time you can do things that make you happy. Find yourself again. Sooner or later I promise you'll feel a lot better and care free. You'll forget it even happened :)

Long term relationship is a way towards success or happiness. But when it's over or not able to work it hurts a lot. Thinking about what you have instead what you have lost helps to recover. Sharing, talking and thinking about present will help to get away from current situation. Once you are set to a new lifestyle you can make a move to go to new relationship.

With determination, long term relationships are hard to recover from, no matter who was the one who decided to leave. You will get there in time. Just don't rush yourself

For a long time that question was in my head, I would always ask other people, search in internet and watch videos about it. The truth is that I couldn't move on, after "knowing how" I couldn't do it, I had so much theory but I it was not possible for me to heal. Until I realised that it was my choice to move on or not, most of us have this stage after a breakup where we don't want to move on, and we decide to stay there... when you decide you really want to move on the best thing is to start thinking by yourself, what do you like, if there is something you always wanted to do, do it! find new hobbies, start exercising (for me was one of the best things to feel better), learn something new, travel, go out with friends, whatever that make you feel better. And the most important thing, be patient with yourself, moving on is not from one day to another, it takes time and effort, everyday choices, so, take time for yourself and focus on make your own happiness. You can be good for some time and then will come difficult days but just keep going, one day you will realise how much you learned and you are going to be stronger.
