Heart broken after being dumped by a boyfriend or girlfriend that you really loved?  Are in pain and want to know how to relieve the heartbreak? 

If you are not sure how to get over it then here’s how to deal with the break up and your broken heart.

First of all, make sure that the relationship is truly over.  Sometimes people break up on the spur of the moment over something silly and regret it almost immediately.  Other times, couples just need a break from each other to get a sense of whether to move on.

By the way, if you are a guy who still wants your ex girlfriend back and are serious about making up with her then maybe reading this would be better for you. How To Get a Girlfriend Back

If you are really sure that the relationship is over and don’t want your ex back then follow the advice in the rest of this article.

Once you are ready to move on, there are some things you can do to assist in healing a broken heart.

First of all, get rid of all of your ex’s things.  Do a ‘property swap’ where you give them back their stuff and they give you back yours.  If there are little things like toothbrushes that you don’t really need, throw them away.

Your ex may have given you gifts that are of sentimental value  You might not want to get rid of something valuable, but then again you don’t want them to be a constant reminder of your ex.  For the time being, box them up and put them out of sight somewhere until you can face looking at them again.  If you want to get over a broken heart then you don’t want anything around that reminds you of your ex.

The next step in how to deal with a break up is to cut off all contact with your ex.  Possibly, at some time in the future you might be able to be friends again, but right now is not the time.  You have some healing to do on your broken heart and it’s best to do it without him or her in your life.

So, don’t see each other casually, don’t phone, don’t  email, text message or otherwise keep any ties that bind.  If you are in the same school or workplace, try to keep your distance without being rude.

After a break up, you are bound to feel a little bit miserable and you won’t want to go out and socialize right away.  But you should!  Moping around  and comfort eating is not how to deal with a break up!  Instead, get out there and reconnect with friends and family. Keeping busy like this will help you to forget about your ex.

Also, this is a great time to explore new interests.  It may be a good idea to take up exercise or something that interests you. Get back into your workout routine at the gym or start with a beginning yoga class.  Your ability to deal with the loss of your ex will be a reflection of whether you can adjust back into the real world without him or her.

Sooner or later, you will find that you are attracted to someone else.  Make some kind of effort to build a relationship even if you don’t think it will turn out to be the love of your life. A new relationship, even if it’s not too serious, will help you get over an ex and kick start the process of healing a broken heart after a break up.
