Think about the reasons behind the breakup and how important they are to you at the first place. That person is your ex today because of these reasons.

Try to re read the old conversation which made you apart and instead of calling your ex call your best friend- save one of your best friends number as your ex no. So you end up calling your friend. Try to avoid him on social media and other platforms.

Understand that the temptation is just one of the steps in coping with a breakup. Every time you give into a temptation it resets the counter to 0 (zero) and you need to start all over again.

Focus on something different, try new activities, find a new hobby. Enjoy your life and with time you will keep going.

If you are wanting to contact your ex think about why they are your ex in the first place. If your relationship ended on bad terms or ended because of a very good reason think about that everytime you want to contact them.

A few questions to consider possibly depending on your situation. What is the purpose of you reaching out to them? Are you on good terms right now? Will it create a conflict?

Remember why you have chosen to seperate from this person. Or why they have chosen to be seperate from you. You need to respect yourself/that person enough to understand that contact will only hurt you/them.

You can always turn off your phone and do new things. Don’t repeat activities you used to do with your ex-partner.

Block them and delete their contact number in your phone, there is a reason for them being your ex so don't go back to someone like that.
