How to get closure from my ex? I feel I need it.

For me, closure from my ex was something I felt i craved, but it never came. My way of dealing with this was simply time. I gave myself time to feel sad and upset about the situation. By not avoiding the feelings or by seeking validation from elsewhere, I was able to really dig in to how I felt and concluded that whatever closure they wished to provide me, I didn't need anymore. By taking time to allow myself to feel, I came out of the situation feeling strong enough to not need the closure any more. Allow yourself some time.

The best way to get closure from your ex is to talk to them. Discuss what happened and why. Discuss how you were feeling at the time. If you cannot talk to them. Then it is important to talk to someone. Air the dirty laundry. Get those feelings off your chest. Remember that you cannot always control everything.

Move on,accept the past and learn to love life without them. It may mot be easy at first but the leap of faith will be worth it!!

Have you ever thought of sharing these things with close people? You must feel Awkward around him/her

Honestly, I feel to get closure from an ex or any person you must extend to them forgiveness. From experience I have realized the power of forgiveness and talking to a person instead of at them goes a long way. If you still talk to your ex, speak to them as a friend to find out what they was feeling when y'all was together and you express your side and see if y'all can move forward. Many ex's have demons that they faced that they felt they couldn't have shared while with you.

Write down all the lessons learned from the relationship and what it taught you. It's ok to grieve and be sad as long as it doesn't impact your life too much. If you are really suffering talking to a trained therapist may help.

Remember the good things and forget about the bad things. It is very hard, especially humans are likely to remember and focus on the bad things more often. But I really think this is the trick - be thankful! Thanks for the blissful memories in that relationship! There is always a good reason for a relationship.

Remind yourself why you aren't together. Say it was good while it lasted, remember the good memories. But always remember you can make more. :)

Take time to spend with yourself and tell yourself that you don’t need someone to make you feel happy.

I can totally relate to using closing as a means of moving on. Your feelings are telling you to go forward in your life.
