Loosing someone you love can be heartbreaking, But at the same time there is no point holding onto someone who was never meant to be yours in the first place. Letting go will only make you stronger. Make you see clearer. Make you look at life in a whole new angle.

Distance makes the heart grow fonder! This could not be truer in the case of breakups. Try to remove everything that reminds you of him/her and also constantly remind yourself that you'll broke up for a reason. Keep that reason in mind the next time you feel nostalgic.

Talk to a counselor. That is too long. There is probably a deeper seated reason for what is causing you to hold on to that person. A counselor can help you work it out.

Loves consumes us,so its hard to let go,but when its becoming a stain to the heart after a year,you need to focus your heart somewhere else,probably get involves with someone else to help divert your attention a little if not completely,then try and get in touch with your ex,physically or telephone coversation,it helps you to figure out why you're holding onto someone that's already gone.

You should start seeing someone new and distract yourself with many fun activities or talk to a good friend about it!

Being hurt is normal. The best thing you can do is learn to love yourself and know that you can get over it

Everything takes time. Even moving on. Continue to accept that you can't be together again. Try to delete your convos, pictures together. Delete those things that reminds you of him

What you are feeling is grief and there is no time limit on this. How deeply you feel is personal to you. Work on yourself and do things that make you feel.happy and in time someone special will come along.

Getting over someone does not have a time scale and it does not depend on how long you have been together, time does not define the love you have for someone. Time is a great healer and it will get better. Try and get rid of all of the negativity that you have around you that will remind you or your ex partner and get some new things to help start your new beginning. Go out and have some time with friends and family and distract your mind from the thoughts of your ex. It will get better and it will get easier.
