Endings are sad, but you can turn it into a lesson.

Why don’t you shift your focus to the good side? Instead of thinking about the relationship that ended, you can think about how you are going to improve and heal yourself.

Take care of yourself. You can try to do some meditating activities, eat well, seek counseling and spend your time with friends and family. In that way, you’ll be able to gain better mental health and well being.

Here are the two things you SHOULDN’T do:

First, jumping into a rebound relationship is never a good thing to do. It will just prevent you from fully processing your emotions from your previous relationship. You’re most likely to have emotional instability, confusion and lack of depth in the new connection.

Second, going back to your previous partner or forcing a connection with them again. If you do that, you’re taking down your self-respect. Do not run back to people who already agreed to separate, or worse left you.
