So yeah the title says it all really, how do you personally get over a break up? I suppose it depends because it's kind of different whether you were the one that wanted to break up or whether you're the one that's been dumped. Do you find it helpful if you completely cut the person out of your life? Does it make you feel more at ease if you can see what stuff they post on social media?
For me personally I have to completely cut that person out of my life. I can't do any of that "lets stay friends" **** and normally, I make myself hate that person and I honestly have no idea why. It might seem a bit immature but for me that's what works - I just end up getting myself really angry at that person that I end up feeling relieved in a sense, that we have split up. Like I will start remembering things they've done to **** me off etc. But I also tend to pretend that I don't care, inside I could literally be crumbling but I would never ever show that to anybody or tell anyone - I do the opposite, I make out like I am having the time of my life and pretend I'm so happy. I only do this however, because after a while I actually start to believe and feel happy without that person.
But yeah, how do you do it? I know various friends handle it differently, some lock themselves away and prefer to be alone, others feel like they have to be surrounded by friends. Some people just like to go out and find somebody to sleep with lol.
