4 Tips For The Broken-Hearted
Here are a few tips to consider:
...........................................................................................................................
1. Write down a list of your five 'must-haves' and five 'can't-stands' for your future partner.
It can be as silly as wanting to date someone who loves to dance or as serious as wanting to be with somebody of the same faith. If it is important to you, include it in your list.
2. Make new relationship resolutions.
Try to identify how certain fears influenced your last relationship, and decide whether you're prepared to take steps to face those fears. For instance, if you feared losing your independence in your last relationship, how will you cope in your next one so that you don't feel you have lost yourself while in a partnership?
3. Ask yourself, "Why did you stay as long as you did?"
Were there moments when you knew it wasn't working? How did you deal with it? What would you do differently if you did it again?
4. Allow yourself to grieve in a way that's comfortable to you.
For some, playing sad love songs and spending many nights inside with Ben and Jerry feels best. For others, jumping into the dating game in a casual way and having fun is a good way to cope.
