    99% of it is time. It's going to feel like the world is falling down around you, but I promise it gets better. Just like any other wound, it's going to take time to heal. Losing a short term relationship definitely hurts a lot more when you're younger too. I know this is going to sound a little cruel in this moment, but one day you're going to look back on your past relationships, even the bad ones, and be grateful that they didn't work the way you planned. Our relationships teach us so much about ourselves and what we truly want or need from a partner.

    My girlfriend and I often joke about how it would have been nice if we had gotten to meet sooner, so we could have even more time together, but we both also agree that if we did, it probably wouldn't have worked out. Both of us thought we knew what we wanted from a partner. Both of us thought we even knew ourselves. The reality is, people are pretty freaking complex. If we had met even a year sooner than we did, we would have never even dated. We both had recently gotten out of a relationship that were beyond toxic, I'll spare you the details. Wh

    What I'm trying to say here is, sometimes what you think you want isn't even close to what you need. Sometimes what you need is something you'd never thought you would want... and many times, along the way, you'll find you have to break a few eggs before you can make an omelet lmao (x

    Healthy distractions definitely help. Hobbies help some people, but for me, when I was a teenager after a breakup i needed to be with friends or family. If I was by myself, I was kind of just mentally spinning my wheels. Sort of just wallowing in a sulky mood. Getting out and having fun experiences will help you get over the hump of the mourning-period. When you're feeling more ready, dating definitely helps too. Not to rebound, but just to remind yourself that there really are plenty of fish in the sea

    Once you have memorialized your past relationship abd have embraced the reality that they are no longer in your life then you can move on.

    Mourning the dead be it a friend or relationship takes time and there is no set schedule

    Breakups are excruciatingly painful. There's no quick remedy for a broken heart.

    The way I can dealt with it was to embrace the pain by crying when I felt the need to. I brokedown when I had to. I'd sit in my car along the coast and reflect , cry and reminisce to let all the hurt, pain and anger out of my system.

    Then when I had no tears left to cry, I removed all traces of him from my life. I changed my number, and got rid of anything that had sentimental value, such as photos, gifts and messages. Anything that reminded me of him.

    I'd use the distraction technique everytime my thoughts drifted towards him or the relationship. I'd keep my mind busy. Time doesn't heal your pain, it's what you do with your time that heals it. So keep physically active and your mind busy. In time, memories fade and the pain eases

    It takes a really strong person to love again after a heartbreak. Because you never want to feel that pain again.
