10 Ways to Get Over Your Ex

•  Delete Him as a friend on your social media pages.

 

Stalking his profile will not help you in any way. This only makes the situation worst for you.

 

•  Delete his number from your contact list.

 

You no longer need to call or text him about anything.

 

•  Get rid of pictures him and all the gifts you have from him.

 

These items will be a constant reminder of him. The sooner you get rid of them the better it will be for you.

 

•  Avoid spending a lot of time alone.

 

This could lead to you thinking more and more about the situation which will make you sad or depressed.

 

•  Are there certain places that is a constant reminder of him, for example, a restaurant you both would go, or a place you all went for a birthday celebration or an anniversary? Create a NEW memory!

 

Attend the same places with people you enjoying spending time with. Go all out. Have fun. Take lots of pictures.

Now every time you think of that specific location, it won’t be a sad reminder of your ex, but rather an enjoyable experience with the people who love you and celebrate you.

 

•  Don’t fall in the trap of eating your emotions or simply pigging out.

 

Instead, take up a fitness class you would enjoy, for example, Zumba, Cardio, Hip Hop, etc…

Dress in your cutest workout gear and create the body you desire. This will not only boost your confidence, but you will also have the opportunity to meet new people, which will take your mind off your ex.

***If you are not able to afford these classes,  invite a friend or 2 to come over and be your workout partners. You can either do your own workout, pop in a workout DVD, or follow along with a workout YouTube video. Either way, have a bottle of water handy, crank up the music and let the burn begin.  😉

 

•  There will be a few days out of the year that could cause you to think of your ex more than usual. For example, birthdays and anniversaries. Plan ahead to do something on these particular days.

 

Don’t stay home replaying what happened the year before over and over in your head. There are better things you could be doing with your time. Here are some ideas of what you could do:

• Girls night out
• Games night
• Date night
• Spend time with the family
• Karaoke night
• Movie night
• Chill with friends and/or family by the beach
• Girls night in
• Volunteer (This will keep your mind on others instead of yourself and your ex)

 

•  Talk to yourself. No really. Hear me out. I understand you might be heartbroken and this often causes your self-esteem to take a major dip.

Get in the habit of saying positive things about yourself  TO yourself.

 

Don’t wait to hear it from someone else. Remind yourself of these things:

• I am beautiful.
• God loves me, therefore I love me.
• I am one-of-a-kind.
• My decision to be happy is my choice.

 

•  Avoid the urge to bask in those popular heartbreak songs.

 

Music has a way of setting the mood. This is not what you need right now. Intentionally create an environment that’s as positive as possible.

 

• Take your worries and concerns to the Lord. Pray…and pray often. Pull up your favorite Bible translation on your phone or computer and read daily.

 

I would suggest looking up passages that will help you to develop your character and passages about the love God has for you.

 

**Don’t allow what happened in your past relationships to define you. No one is perfect. We all have our struggles.
