What do to when he says goodbye?

Breaking up can be difficult for both people ending a relationship. You may feel many emotions including anger, disappointment, jealousy, envy, guilt, and sorrow. However, you can't let these emotions determine whether or not you are able to survive and move on with your life. Following these tips will allow you to continue to hold your head up high and move on with grace.

Acknowledge the fact that the relationship is over.

You may feel like arguing with him or begging him to come back. You may also be tempted to make promises you can't keep in order to keep him from leaving. But, you should accept the fact that the relationship is over. Your mate may know this even if you don't. The reasons why are unimportant at this particuliar time.

Think about the advantages of being apart

Maybe you really wanted to be single all long. Here's your opportunity to get out on the single's scene. If you wanted to pursue a new career, at this time you may be able to do so. Or perhaps you enjoyed lounging around the house. You no longer have to worry about him telling you what to do or when to do it.

Think of it as a learning experience

If it was a bad relationship, you should view the relationship as a chanceto find out who you are and as a opportunity to grow. Accept the lesson and use it to improve your future relationship.

Affirm the positive

Don't think that you will never meet someone else that will love and care about you. Instead affirm that you have been loved before; and therefore you will be loved by another mate. If you were hurt, know that you will get past the pain and begin feeling good again.

Take care of yourself

Continue to eat properly. Perform household chores to the best of your ability. Visit a spa and let someone else pamper you.

Look for new opportunities to find love

Don't immediately begin to search for someone who looks like or reminds you of your ex. Get to know different people. Spend more time with your children doing the things that they love. They will probably give you joy also. Buy a vase of flowers or get a pet.
