You remember that you were okay without them once and that the moment someone noticed something special within you is when you in fact became special. You were always special. You were always amazing. Your inner strength was in you long before they were in your life and it will be within you after the next breakup. This is a chance to grow, to become the amazing person you've always wanted to be. How lucky you are to have received this amazing life experience to learn and understand a completely other side of you. Believe in yourself and remember, you're not a half, you're a whole. Now go out in the world and own it.

By reminding myself that I don't have to be "the one" for every person that comes along, and also by going out with people that care about me such as friends, and family. Because you don't have to try and please everyone because everyone is perfect the way they are, and if the ex can't accept you for you then the least you can do is accept yourself.

Everyone have their own special charm , breaking up means that he/she , didn't see your charm , so in the end , they r the losers not you , you don't deserve a person who can't see your true self and your charming self

His/Her loss. :) Know that things just didn't work out. It sucks, it really really does, but don't feel alone because other people are feeling the same way as you are. In the end, someone out there is going to be really really happy that you didn't get back with your ex, and that person is going to prove that you are so so beautiful and worth so much. He/she is going to finally make things right. :)

It's so difficult to detach from one we were once attached to, who helped us shape our identity with them as a collective unit. I find post-break ups, while difficult, allow the chance to re-establish who we are, who we thought we were, and who we want to be. Self-care is the best way to experiment with what works for us. Baby steps!

You remind yourself through the whole relationship that, the person you're with doesn't make your self worth or break it. You are strong, and you matter with or without them.

It's a difficult thing to put into words, as every relationship, breakup and person is different. However, planning what you want to do, moving forward, and becoming happy with yourself can be a great start. Finding things you enjoy, either new, or old habits, can be great as long as it's constructive. Being around other people can also open your eyes to you being a great person - If people want to hang out with you, they rarely do that out of pity!

Treat yourself worthy even if you don't feel like it, with time you will star to believe it. Do more of what you like, try something new maybe. Try to talk to somebody new maybe. Go out even if it's just for a walk by yourself. Enjoy your company. Realize that you are a unique living being (one in 7 billions) and that makes you worthy :)

deflection, deflection and more deflection. After a breakup we will have 4 phases (you can google it). Try to talk with your friends and think at the positive things and move forward!

I found that getting active can be of great help whenever your self worth is lowered after a breakup. I started trying out new sports after my last breakup and it greatly increased my sense of self worth. Doing things you like makes you realize that life can also be worthwile without a partner and that you can also have a great time in your own company. It also helps distracting you from nagging thoughts about the breakup.
