Any advice for getting over your ex?

[Anonymous]

My girlfriend broke up with me in Jan. of 2024. It's been 1.5 years, and I still haven't gotten over her. I still think about her when something related to her happens near me, like seeing someone in scrubs, etc. I want to get over her, but I am unable to. Any advice?

Have you tried taking up new hobbies or spending time out with your friends or family? Often, widening our social circles and getting out and about and experiencing things can help us move on, while also meeting new people at the same time. So sorry to hear you are going through this tough break up!

A breakup isn't just the loss of a person, but also a part of your identity. Use this time as an opportunity for self-discovery and start over. It is not as challenging as people make it out to be.
