How to Get Over Your Ex

?Break-ups are hardly ever easy. Whether you initiated the separation or you were caught off guard, it still takes some time to get over your ex. Here are some tips that can make your transition from part of a couple to a single person a little easier.

Spend time with your friends. Do the things you did before you met your ex. Sitting at home alone will only make you think about things you could have done to prevent the break-up. Have fun.Don't feel guilty about having a good time. Remember that you are single and don't have to answer to your ex about where you go and what you do. As a matter of fact, don't even think about him while you are out.<li>Learn from the experience. Reflecting on the reasons you were attracted to your ex and why you broke up will help you in your next relationship. Just don't dwell on it. That relationship is over, so you have to move on with your life.<li>It's okay to remain friends on Facebook as long as you are doing it for the right reasons. Some couples were friends before the romantic relationship and can remain friends afterward. If it makes you sad to see what how your ex is moving on without you, unfriend them. The same is true with keeping their phone number. If you are no longer speaking and you find yourself instinctively dialing their phone number, deleting the number may help you control that habit.

Give yourself some time to mourn the loss of the relationship, but don't dwell on it. Sitting at home by yourself only gives you time to think about what could have been and that kind of thinking is not productive. Move on with your life. Soon you may find yourself in a new relationship and you will be armed with life experience to make the next one better.
