Alright, so something happened and now you find yourself alone again.
If you're finding yourself heartbroken and confused, you likely want to know how to survive a breakup.
It is typical for you to feel depressed and sad after a breakup.
It may be a cliche, but time will mend your broken heart.
However, there are a few things that can help you recover quicker and make you feel better in less time.
First, come to terms with the fact that the relationship has ended.
This important realization will help you start the healing process.
You don't have to see it as a permanent break, but for the time being make your peace with the fact that you are broken up.
This way you won't feel the urge to harass your ex with phone calls or emails begging and pleading them to take you back.
These kinds of stunts only make your ex run even further away from you.
You two both need to take some time away from the relationship to think about things.
So step back from your relationship for just a little bit and work on yourself.
This is a very important step in getting your emotions in check and getting over a breakup.
Second, allow yourself mourn the loss of your relationship.
We usually need time to work through the emotions that come with the loss of something or someone special to us.
So take the time you need to handle all those feelings you have.
Some people will tell you to jump directly into a new relationship.
This isn't going to help you in the long run.
Rebound relationships are very rarely successful.
It's not fair to start another relationship with someone new and expect them to deal with all your unresolved emotions from your last relationship.
Learn to feel complete as your own individual and move past your previous relationship.
Then after you feel ready to find love, you can start dating again.
It is very important that you get closure on all the issues from your last relationship and reestablish your unique personality as a way of getting past a breakup.
Third, try to keep yourself busy.
Try to make time for getting yourself out of the house.
Spend time with your friends, learn some new skills, or take a course or two at a junior college.
These kinds of activities will help keep you from getting depressed and moping around the house too much.
Also you should start moving away from doing "couple activities" and try out new activities that you find exciting and interesting.
Bettering yourself by acquiring new skills and knowledge and making new friends is always good for you.
These new passions make you much more fascinating and attractive to other people.
To help ease yourself through a breakup, keep yourself busy.
This will keep you from thinking too much about your relationship and you'll also be bettering yourself at the same time.
Breakups definitely are not a walk in the park.
The advice here will help you through this trying time in your life.
It will likely be challenging to get started with all this in the beginning, but keep with it and don't give up hope.
Eventually you'll find your stride and everything will come much more easily.
Trust me, I've gone through all of this.
You can do this and come out the other side a stronger person.
