Everything takes time, especially heartbreak. Cry, express yourself and hold nothing in. Staying physically active is also a very important part of recovering.

Focus on yourself and your own life. Spend time and energy on improving yourself and focus on things that you like to do or experience. Work on being happy with yourself and where you are. Take steps to reach that point. Most importantly give it time, because letting go does take time. Allow yourself to let go even if it is painful. It will pass. With time it will be easier to handle. Also remember it doesn't mean you have to stop loving someone. As long as you can move forward and also be open for new people and experiences. Connect with others that you can relate with in a positive sense.

You can try to focus on yourself a bit , to start telling yourself over and over that your ex was just something from the past and not it's gone , That you don't even need anyone who doesn't want you around , Try to care for yourself more and the people you really love and those who care about you , you will get distracted by your own awesomeness and you will forget about him and you are going to find someone who really value your beauty.

if you cant get over your ex, you need to start making yourself busy at all time, try hide all the conversations you guys have so you are not attempted to reread. hide all the pictures and you cant know the code, so you wont keeping looking back at the pictures when you guys were together. try to make a list of things you hate about him and keep reading it everyday. you might get over him slowly but its a progress and it might help

If you want to heal from apast relationship, it might be wise to take some personal time to reflect on the relationship . Allow yourself to feel like joy and pain and anything else associated with that time. This may allow you to have a sense of closure. Hopefully that helps!

Focus on something productive, try new things. Use this time of being single to meet new people, bond with family and friends and improve yourself! You don’t need a man to make you happy!

Meeting new people can help, more than we think. because that make us see things clearer. why should we accept the fact that we can not be with them (our exes) anymore? because some other people worth to get over these feelings, they can show us everything is easier when there is someone to walk with during this ordeal. With addition to that it will keep us busy and away from our sad feelings. of course there could be more solutions to get over an ex. Everyone has their own way of overcoming difficulties. Also, We should always ask for help from people we trust and people who seem like they care enough to listen.

First good thing to do is distance yourself from him (do not communicate, do not check on his social media, do not look at photos of him, dispose of things that remind you of him). And most important: focus on yourself and your life. Look for things that make you happy and help you enjoy life, spend time with friends and new people, enjoy your hobbies (or find a new one), take care of yourself (your body and soul - both is important). Then is good to set yourself some goals and go for it. And the last thing: Be yourself and grow!
