Don’t talk to the person.
As Drake urged, please refrain from doing it. There is nothing except problems with this. Avoid communicating with them through phone call, text message, snapchat, Instagram “heart,” Facebook message, Whatsapp, or pigeon mail. Really, don’t get in touch with them. If you continue to speak with someone, how can you possibly forget them? Exactly!
Don’t try to remove this person from your mind.
It won’t be possible for you to quit thinking about this individual. You’ll really give them more thought as a result. Therefore, avoid saying to yourself when you sit on the couch, “I need to get over him/her.” You’ll just find yourself reflecting on how you don’t want to get past them. I guess the mind is a weird thing.
Block and delete them.
Take them off of Facebook, Instagram, and SnapChat. I have no doubt that you would stalk them mercilessly online. Eliminating them entirely from your life is the only way to stop this from happening. You may not believe me now, but it will be difficult for you to stop visiting their facebook page in a month or two.
Write your feelings down.
You must express your emotions because there is no other way to make sense of what happened and to find inner peace. Four scripts that I authored. Yes. Four. I know. Excessive. But just like you, I had a lot of feelings to sort through.
So take out your diary, a pen, and begin writing. Write down your first sentence, even if it is just “I don’t know what to write.” Your writing will eventually pick up steam and those emotions will begin to flow onto the paper.
Set goals.
Set goals to help you get focused. Start with modest targets. For instance, I set a goal for myself to take a daily 30-minute walk. Your objective need not be big or really important. As long as it aids in navigating this stage, it can be straightforward. Keep in mind that this is just temporary. You’ll overcome this. Create some goals, then. You’ll spend 10 minutes each day journaling or listening to music before bed.
Travel.
Take a trip around the globe. Waiting for them to change while you mope about your house is useless. Purchase a train, airline, or bus ticket; it makes little difference how you get there as long as you make the effort to explore the area where you are. You’ll be wondering why you’re spending your time on that individual once you see what the world has to offer, I promise.
Give it time.
Yes, I am aware that it is overused, but time truly is the greatest healer. Life moves on, and eventually that individual will quietly and unintentionally fade from your consciousness. It could take a few days, weeks, or even years. I genuinely just look at the person who crushed my heart now and wish he would remove his obscene beard. You see, the easiest way to forget someone is to let time pass.
It’s never simple to let go of someone you previously cared for a lot, especially when they left you with so many memories. But if you put some work into it and follow these guidelines, you’ll look back in a few days and realize how simple everything was.
