10 Perfect Ways To Nurse A Heartbreak

Love is easy, said no one ever. But breakups are worse. To abuse someone, to tear those love letters, to throw away all the gifts is reliving but also temporary. Here are few ways that can help you get over a heartbreak, permanently.

1. The first step always is to cry it out.

Release your emotions, your heartache, and the betrayal through your tears. Trust me nothing good comes out of holding them back.

2. Talk it out.

Tell it all to your best friend or anyone you are comfortable around. Say it out loud. It puts things into perspective and is extremely reliving.

3. Replay. Analyse.

Once you calm down and are over the initial shock/trauma, try and go through everything that happened, try to understand why it happened, reason it out. It will help you grow as a person and help you see things in a different light.

4. Talk to your ex.

Ask questions, clear all your doubts. It’s easy to lose your temper or to get over emotional about things. But don’t lose it.

5. Disconnect.

Meeting your ex every day, stalking them on Facebook, checking their ‘last seen’ on Whatsapp every half an hour is only going to make you more miserable. It won’t be easy but it isn’t impossible. Whenever you’re tempted to do so, replace that thought with something productive.

6. Write about it.

You need not be a writer or a poet. Just write down whatever you feel. Be honest about your feelings. Don’t think about the flow, the grammatical errors or the handwriting. Just write. Write till you feel there’s nothing more to say.

7. Do things.

There’s a lot of time and energy on hand. Utilise it. Do things that you always wanted to do but never found the time for. Go to the beach, watch a sunset, read a book, go on a drive, meet long lost friends, try out new places, go for a concert, walk, run, jump. Just do it.

8. Feel good.

Do things that make you feel good about yourself. Exercise, swim, run or simply go shopping. Surround yourself with people who love you and are important to you.

9. Reconnect?

This completely depends on your equation with your ex and the reason why it ended. If you really cherish your friendship and if the person has helped you grow as an individual then definitely give your friendship another shot. But yes, take your time. Do this when YOU think you are ready for this. However, if you were in an abusive relationship or with a person who made you feel miserable then thank your stars and move on.

10. Become the most important person in your life.

This does not mean that you become selfish or never fall in love again. It only means that you start thinking about yourself before thinking about others. And do what your heart says.
