Here's How:
1.) It's okay to grieve for a time. Seek support from your friends and family as you come to terms with the changes in your life.
2.) Don't look at past relationships as failures, but rather as opportunities to learn and improve your relationship skills.
3.) Don't worry that you're not in a relationship. Your value comes from who you are, not who you're with.
4.) You don't have to be a recluse just because you aren't a couple. Treat yourself to an evening out doing something you enjoy. Take along a friend if it's not a solo activity.
5.) Treat yourself to a special gift now and then. You are a special person and you deserve it.
6.) There's more to life than romantic love. Take this opportunity to nurture your friends, family and self.
7.) Take some time to reevaluate what you need in a relationship. Have you been choosing partners who are not capable of a loving and mature relationship?
8.) Be willing to take another chance on love. Like they say, you can't win if you don't play.
9.) Be a friend to yourself. If you care about yourself, the odds are better you will attract those you care about you too.
10.) If you're finding it hard to let go of a relationship, you may need to seek counseling. An obsessive need to be with someone who no longer wants a relationship may be a sign of love addiction.
11.) Avoid jumping into a rebound relationship. Take some time to work through all the issues from your previous one.
12.) Don't try to get revenge. This will only slow your progress in healing from the hurt.
13.) Forgive yourself. You can't change the past, but you can learn from your mistakes and not repeat them.
14.) Forgive your partner. This doesn't mean that you are saying what happened is okay. What it means is cutting your losses and not investing any more time in something that hurts you
Tips:
1.) Church groups, volunteer activities, and university lectures are just a few ideas for meeting new people in a safe environment.
2.) Get a makeover, join a gym or start a diet. As you improve your health and appearance your self-esteem will rise.
3.) Repeating daily affirmations can help you to regain confidence in yourself.

u might of heard it b4 but only time can mend a broken heart, as far as how long it all depends how long your relationship was, the 1st 2 or 3 weeks will b very difficult and you'll feel your life is over, 1st u have 2 ask yourself if the reason 4 u breaking up was really worth it, if not than there's no sense in hurting if things can b fixed, but if they can't then hard as it may be u have 2 stay away from that person, no calling, no emailing, no texting, nothing, put away any pictures or anything that reminds u of that person, try 2 keep busy, join a gym, do stuff u never got 2 do b4, hang out with your friends, even though u might think of that person while your out it's better than being alone, talk about it with someone your close 2, goodluck.

Mix vodka, gin, vermouth and pitted olives and drink
Repeat for comfort or for the heck of it until passing out
May not heal a brokenheart but the hangover will sure divert your mind!

im sorry to say this but you will never heal a brokenheart. time will help but the scar will always be there. try to go out running, drawing,shopping, just keep yourself busy. dont rush into another relationship, it will only make things worse. good luck â¥

Burn all of his letters, pictures, photos. Even better, burn them on the grill and eat dinner. Give away everything he gave you. For some time, until you feel better, stop listening to music that might remind you of him and the good times with him. Don't go to the places you two used to go. Don't try to contact him. Join a gym, a club, start a new activity. Buy yourself a bottle of italian wine. Go out on your own. See people you haven't seen in a while. Run a lot. Buy things for yourself. Redecorate your place. Let the days go. Good news: this time will pass. Even better news: you can fall in love again.

i have been through healing a broken heart. it was so painful i could die, cried a lot, tried calling but he refused to answer. i dream of him every night, in my thoughts everyday, our breakup was abrupt, we couldnt be together for some reason. im so in love , he was in love, i could say we are both in love and that's the hardest part. but couldnt go on anymore, i have to find ways how to forget him, u know what i tried new stuffs, new food, new places, i even tried roller coaster for the first time( coz i really hate those rides), kept myself busy in the computer, and when i remember him, i pray...thank God....it's been 5mos now and im 80% recovered, i still think of him but its not as painful as before, i could say time really heals all wound....goodluck and pray.

Only time can do that trick. It's been about 4 years since mine was broken and I'm still feeling the pain from it. I've moved on but the hurt is still there.

i like the revenge one. it helps a little. knowing that someone broke your heart and you got to do a little something back to them. just don't go to extremes. he's obviously gonna know it's you, so keep it semi-legal :)
then after that, just hang out with friends and have a couple drinks. someone else will come a long when you least expect it.
