How To Forget An Ex
Dear Candice,
How do I take my ex off my thoughts? It’s been three years? How to forget an ex? She was my first and only. It sickens me to think of her but it still happens. And everywhere from real life to social networking, I’m always worried about how I appear to her… So yeah, how do I get this toxic clog out of my arteries? Thanks – Will
Dear Will,
Forgetting a past relationship can be difficult, it’s not really a matter of time.. but how you spend your time after your relationship went downhill. It seems that there’s nothing you can do, but to forget her. It’s definitely not as easy as it sounds, but surely there are ways to forget an ex and start over again in no time.
Have closure. It is important to definitively cut any desires of getting back together. And if you cannot get that into your head, your ex owes you the courtesy of it even clearer than the crystal. You need to realize you do not have feelings for each other anymore and will never reconcile.
Get bad emotions out on paper. Write a letter pouring out your bad feelings, then mentally remove them from yourself. Bin the letter or better, burn it. You must never send the letter to her. It may just cause you more harm than good.
Exercise your new-found freedom. Freedom is always invigorating. There is a lot of things that you can partake in that you weren’t able to enjoy since your girlfriend didn’t approve. So comfort yourself. Travel. Go camping. Play video games with your friends. Do things that you weren’t able to do because you are considering her presence. It could be ideal to find an activity that will let you put out your anger and relieves stress.
Hang out with your friends. Let your buddies provide you with a reality check on how your ex wasn’t everything to begin with, and that there are plenty of fish in the sea. Just a little male companionship can definitely go a long way in order to get your head straight.
Forgetting an ex is a mental and emotional challenge. However, the tried and true guidelines above should have your heart mended soon enough.
