5 Breakup Coping Strategies That Actually Works!

Breaking up in a relationship is one difficult situation no one will want to find himself in, and if that happens, it is normal that you go around looking for solutions on how to get over a breakup.

I know getting over a breakup is very difficult, especially if you've fallen deeply in love with your partner and planned your future with her.

I had my share of breakup situations, and I have learned a lot of lessons on the best way to go about coping with this heart-wrenching situation which I will be sharing in this article to help you also come out sound of your breakup and get back at your life in line again.

     1. Get rid of visible reminders;

You don't want to haunt yourself with the memories you had with your partner; therefore, getting rid of all the stuff you have of him as a reminder is the first step in getting yourself together.

This means the love notes, pictures, gifts, or anything that might serve as a reminder must go immediately after the breakup.

Later after you have fully recovered, there is no harm in picking these items up to look at.

     2. Mute his social media updates;

Since the goal is to get anything that will remind you of him out of sight, you should do the same to his social media accounts.

Go to settings and hide or mute any content that he might upload in the future.

By doing this, any update of him on social media platforms like Facebook, Whatsapp, Snapchat, or Instagram wouldn't appear in your feed and constantly remind you of him.

     3. Accept the reality;

This should be the foremost action after the breakup has happened. 

Accept the fact that it has happened and maybe you can cry about it a little when you are on your own and then get yourself back together to move on.

Never go back to beg or ask why he has left you for another.

Begging or going back to find out what you have done wrong will make your recovery more challenging and complex.

     4. Be social;

Avoid being alone at most times because this will only take your mind back to him and the memories you've shared.

This period should be the perfect time to fall on your family or friends to keep you company.

Keep yourself active whiles having fun with your loved ones. This will not only make you take off your mind on the situation, but it is also a great way to keep you from going into depression.

     5. Get back into dating;

Another quick way to recover from a breakup is to try to get someone new into your life.

This might sound like it's too early to do that, but it actually works in helping you get over your ex.

Getting yourself out there again will ease things once you can get a new guy or girl.

Most people fall on mobile apps to help them get back into dating fast, which can also work out for you.

If you are not a social media person or you are someone who likes to meet people one on one instead of doing that online, then going out to social events where people converge can be an excellent way to start all over.

I hope this helps you, and remember, it is not the end of the world if you lose someone.

If it is meant to be, it will be.

Such is life, but most assuredly, you will be OK with time.

Thanks for reading.

Consequences of lying to kids and teenagers

‘’ Katie, go and work on your homework!’’ Katie; – Mom, I’ve already done that. Okay. I headed straight to his bedroom and then came across his school books opened.
