  • People are vastly different in the time it takes to recover from a breakup. There is no normal estimation of recovery since there are so many factors that are involved in it. It depends on your outlook, your personality, how good the relationship was, how the breakup was handled, the time spent in a relationship etc.

    1. I would suggest if you haven't already, block and unfriend them on all media platforms. Not because of them, but for yourself.

    2. Remove all references and things that remind you of them from your room, your digital devices, social media, pc, etc. No pictures, no love letters, nothing.

    3. Give yourself time to grieve, realize it's okay to feel these emotions. Don't try to fight it because it'll only make it worse.

    4. Make a sort of close knit support group comprised of your closest friends and family members. Be open and honest about your feelings with them and vent as much as you need.

    5. Realize that this isn't the end. Previous relationships and breakups are a learning experience for both parties. For example If I didn't have my first relationship I wouldn't have nearly done as well in my 2nd. Just know there will be someone else one day that will love you for you.

    6. Take this time to recover and focus on yourself. Don't get caught up in why it ended. Just know that this will be an important experience for the next relationship. You are forever growing as a person. Distance yourself from the image of your past self, the person you imagine in those old memories are no longer the person you are today. Just like you aren't the person you were a year ago, 2 years ago etc. Nor are you the person you'll be a year from now, 2 years from now and so forth.
