The easiest way to tell I have moved on is when whatever situation/person no longer pulls at my emotional strings. I can think about the situation/person without it affecting my day.

you can tell that you have really moved on when they do not effect you anymore, when you can live positively, let go of all the hurt and focus on continuing to heal yourself

If someone mentions a party and your first thought isn't 'what if they're there' then you're well on your way.

When you can tell the story and it no longer makes you cry, that's the first sign that you've started to move past the hurt.

When you stop thinking about them or the things that associated to them, when you can find happiness beyond what already made you happy beforehand.

I think it depends on the person. When you're no longer concerned about what the other person is doing or when you're not constantly thinking about them are signs that you're moving on. When the thought of not being with the person isn't as painful is also showing that you're moving on. When you have truly moved on, you accepted or are okay with that happened and it no longer consumes your entire life.

I sit upright, and close my eyes. I lay my hands palms down on my thighs and take deeps breaths. Counting the seconds it takes to complete a full insulation and exhalation. I focus my mind completely on my breathing so that I can drown out all other noises and distractions.
