Question

how can i move on from a bad relationship?

Answer 1

This is figuring you are out of it already. This won't be easy. Here are a few steps.



If you have any of their stuff, throw it out or box it up and put it where you won't look at it. This includes valuable presents like jewelry, watches, clothes.



Get rid of their phone number, block their screen name, delete their email addresses.



The idea is if you see stuff that reminds you of them it will take longer to move on to a good and healthy relationship.



Get involved with something to keep your mind busy and where you could meet new people. If you are too busy you won't think of them as much and the next thing you will know you will be moved on. Get involved with a church, sporting team, hobby, going to the gym, etc.



You just need time to get over it and you need to put yourself in a position where you will find someone it will be a good relationship with.

Answer 2

Often people get into bad relationships because they really wanted to be in a relationship, period. If this applies to you, consider exploring your life, your dreams, and your interests more. Good people tend to be attracted to those who bring to a relationship a life of their own.



I do know that the more you find inside yourself, the less you will look for others to fill that void. In no time, you will discover things about you that you didn't realize you had. Life will seem new again, and your longing for the person who hurt you will fade. You will also gain a lot of confidence and avoid people who are unhealthy for you in the future.

Answer 3

closure. you must get rid of all lingering "what-if" thoughts, all the "well maybe" questions and just keep moving.



replace your negative thoughts into postive thoughts. when you start to think of that person, transform that thought into something better: the latest movie in the boxoffice, shopping, reading books, themepark with friends.



And yes friends are essential. They can quickly keep your mind occupied, help you get over the bad relationship, and often just their presense is therapeutic.



Bad relationships happen, and they are definately learning experiences. If you stil have thoughts you need to get out, get yourself a journal and jot down those thoughts. Draw pictures. Doodle. Scratch away your anger. Get out all the emotion and when you feel relieved, tell yourself--I deserve better...and move on.

Answer 4

mope around and be miserable for a couple months, and then you will be over it, of course this is only if you have nothing or no-one else to do, I got a job and moved away from her, and found a new and better girlfriend so it didnt take as long as that.

Answer 5

GO SHOPPING!! it always helps!!

try talkin to someone you really trust too...someone who knos the situation and the both of you and who will tell you the truth.

THE TRUTH MAY HURT BUT ITS THE TRUTH AND THAT IS BETTER THAN ANYTHING!!

becuz later you'll be mad that the person didn't tell you the truth...that hurts more.



¡buenos suerte!

Good Luck!! it will get better...just give it some time!!
