How do you get over your ex?

Answer 1

You never do get OVER the person; you just tell yourself over and over that this is how life needs to be. It's best that you move on. You will always wonder about the other person, you will ponder and wonder, dream and be sad. It's like a death; you have to tell yourself over and over (like its a sales pitch) that the other person was not meant for you; God has someone for you. If something was meant to be, it would have happened. One thing I say to myself is that my exboyfriend married someone just like me, so that in a way, a proxy me married him - so I support his marriage to this day. They are still married since 1979 w/2 grown kids. And it doesn't bother me anymore. But it took 10 yrs to let go, too.

I wish you the best. Try and place your heart toward the future, don't dwell in the past, and understand that things do happen for a reason, even if we never do find out why.

Answer 2

Well the best luck that I've had to this day is to first cut off all communications. Forget about CD's or little **** that you left or money owed. If its worth that much to you fight over it in court. Next get in contact with all ur old friends, and get something planned to go out!!! Have a goodnight and just feel the freedom. Then try to make more plans for other nights to go out, and meet people. The fastest way to get over an ex is to find someone else. I'm not saying find someone to jump in bed with, but find someone who your really interested in. And Dont settle for anything less than what you want! I've noticed that-that feeling you get when you met someone new, and u cant wait to talk to them and see them again-overpowers the feeling of missing someone. Once you find that ur ex will be a thing of the past. One tip tho! Dont use the internet or phone to find dates! Go out and the people will find u! Nothing beats having actual encounters with people up close and in person. U wont get that feeling from a plastic box! Good luck!

Answer 3

Getting over someone means to stop obsessing about them, and that usually requires you to change your focus. Some good examples:

Walk in the forest or by the ocean or anywhere in nature. Being in a natural setting helps us to see our problems and our lives as relatively small when compared to the vastness and longevity of nature.

Talk with friends and family in person, or if necessary on the phone. And after they've allowed you to vent about your sadness, loneliness, and/or anger, you should listen to what is going on with them. Again, it is a good reminder that life goes on and everyone has problems, so you have a time limit for feeling sorry for yourself before people start getting tired of your whining and moaning.

Travel or take up a hobby. Anything that involves your focus in a concentrated way or takes you away from reminders of your ex will help you stop fixating on the loss because your thoughts are occupied elsewhere.

In extreme cases, talk to a therapist or lawyer, who can help guide you if there are property rights being contested or if restraining orders are required, etc.
