In my experience, it just takes time.

Doesn't matter how many new people you date or sleep with as you try to forget about them.
I don't even think being busy works. All that stuff is just a distraction.
I try to do shyt to minimize the feelings. Almost slept with someone a day after the breakup but I wasn't into it. Looking back I shoulda done it. :snoop:

Break ups are tough and they suck the life out of you. You'll be in for a wave of emotions but try not to run from them...feel them completely.

Don't lie to yourself about your feelings.

Pray to break the soul ties.


This is solid advice. Trust in time and just allow yourself to feel, even the hurt. shyt will make you stronger and wiser. The other side of pain is worth it.

You can cope by bettering yourself AND being of service to others. People underestimate the joy that comes with helping without expectations. No better feeling.

I'm not saying that people shouldn't listen to music, or clean, or travel, or date 100 people after a break up.

I just think that all of those things are just a distraction from the pain. It's an anesthetic. It's not a cure.

If you don't have any kids/financial ties/etc. with your ex you could think about going no contact. It has to be for the right reasons though and not for game playing or validation.
Some men are very persistent and it's a bad feeling (prolonged pain) for him to fight to get you back only to do the same things again. So, don't get fooled by his persistence especially if he is unable to clearly identify the problems and outline a plan to work through them.

One more thing - This sounds crazy but if your ex left you or won't speak to you, use it to your advantage. Let pride help you out here. (I know all about this).

She put me off and it was ugly
I made a million dollars, she said she loved me
The way she did me... it destroyed me
I kept it real with lil' shorty
