Often, trying NOT to think about something just makes you think about it more. Find something to engage in, for example learning a new language, topic or skill, being out with friends, exercising, or working on a personal project.

Surround yourself with people that mean a lot to you, and give you a postitive feeling that stops you thinking about him/her. Do things that you love to do, and live your life to the fullest. Maybe make a list of pros and cons about that person, and put it in a box or something.

Recognise that it’s OK to have different feelings. Give yourself permission to feel and to function at a less than optimal level for a period of time. Take time to heal, regroup, and re-energise. Don’t go through this alone.
