Maybe think about how they affected your life negatively that made you want them out of it. This will help you get over them and your emotions for them. Or if you still have feelings for them, then maybe you should tell them how you feel and maybe they will feel the same way for you! If they don't feel the same way, then that's okay cause there are numerous other people out there and you will eventually find the one for you and maybe it will be someone that will treat you better than that person you have to see everyday!

Put in perspective their flaws and not just the snapshots of good times. It's easy for us to glorify things when they are over.Spend that extra time on yourself.Learn something about yourself and things that you enjoy. Gift yourself that extra time you were giving to someone else. Make new connections. Reach out to someone new. You never know what the next adventure holds. It's also hard to spend time and thoughts on someone when you are busy with something new. Don't allow yourself time to obsess about someone. Emotions, even hate, will keep you connected to that person. Sever the connection so it doesn't weigh you down. There's not time better to move forward than right now.

Remind yourself that you are your own independent person every time you see them. Seeing them can hurt, but use seeing them every day to your advantage. It helps to remind yourself why they did not work out, and Try to remember the not so good memories instead of the great ones. It will be hard to not find yourself always thinking of them when you constantly have to see them, but as long as you focus on yourself, you will get through it. And if not, you can always come and talk to a listener here at 7 cups!

It can be really hard to get over someone you are required to see everyday. Sometimes, in those types of situations, the best option can be to change the way you think about that person. Changing your thought patterns can help when changing the external (or environmental) circumstance is impossible. Instead of focusing on this person in the context that makes them hard to get over, try, if you can, to re-frame the lens with which you look at them. Look at them as you would a coworker who didn't particularly hold your interest, or a classmate you don't often think about. Changing how you think of them might help you move past the uncomfortable circumstance.

Everyone heals differently. Meditation works for me. It helps me to be calm, especially in times that I need it the most. Breathing techniques are a life saver, they helped me prevent anxiety attacks. When I saw the person I needed to get over, I tried my best to remind myself it’s healthier to keep my distance. I would remind myself it’s healthier to forgive and not hate. That forgiving this person didn’t excuse them of the hurt that was caused. I reminded myself that even though it hurts to let go, it hurts more to stay. Moving on was the best thing for me and for them. That it won’t always be this way, happiness will come again the sooner I try to be happy by looking forward and not behind.

Well I think it's not about getting over the person immediately, Because the relationship was important to you. So to acknowledge the feelings you have are valid. Allow yourself to feel, we got to feel in order to heal. The good and the bad. the happy and the sad. Love doesn't die easy, even if you're not together. So whenever you see the person smile and say I found me. There's something that you know now that you didn't know before. You are stronger that this didn't break you. Well this is my take on this question. We as people need to learn to heal naturally and you're allowed time.

It's very tough there is no right way or wrong way it's hard believe me it is. But soon everyday it will get a little easier if you can try and limit the time you are around this person it would help I know It is not always possible to do so but if it's someone you work with try changing shifts if it's an ex and you have children or still live together take time for yourself whatever your situation is make sure your taking some time out for you

Focus on caring for yourself, the same way you would getting over someone even if you didn't. It may take longer to "get over" them, but it is an essential skill.

I got over someone whom I have to see everyday by keeping myself busy with other stuff. I started hanging out with friends, tried to do things differently, and I just focus on my personal growth.

By anticipating possible scenarios. Like Ask yourself, “What do I do if I come face to face with him in the elevator?” A reasonable response would be to say to him, “Hi. Awkward elevator ride, right?” You can always wait for another elevator. No one is forcing you to do anything you don’t want to do.
