Tips on Getting Over a Break Up for Men
But if you still miss your ex girlfriend long after you should have already gotten over it, there may be something wrong with the way you handle the situation.
Here are some general tips in handling breakup: Stop fantasizing about her.
It's just wrong.
You are only tightening your emotional bonds with her and prolonging your agony.
Not good at all! Accept that it's over.
The longer you deny to yourself that she's not the one, the harder it is for you to let her go and move on with your life.
And the faster you dive back to the ocean, the faster you will realize that there are a lot of fish in the sea.
Acceptance is the first step towards recovery.
Start dating.
Men can almost instantly get back on their feet after the break up.
But dude, if you are still crying after several months or eating a pint of ice cream everyday for two straight months, you are allowing life to pass you by.
You are also allowing some girls to get hooked by other men.
Start meeting new people as soon as possible to take your thoughts off your ex.
You'll be amazed what kissing another girl can do.
Cut the cord.
One of the biggest mistakes you can commit after the breakup is staying friends.
Many think this will make the loss less painful but the truth is it only makes it worse especially if you are thinking that being friends will help you get her back.
Save your dignity by staying away and not even caring at all.
Take control of your life.
If she is calling you in the middle of the night and you know she'll just blame you for the breakup, do not pick up.
If she asks you to do her a favor, decline.
If she asks you out, say you're busy.
Tell straight to her that it is over and you have moved on even if you are still hurting.
It is better to save your dignity by cutting all the cords than hoping for something that will never happen.
Do not let her into you and start taking control of you only because you are emotionally fragile.
Start living again.
After a period of grieving, now is the time to start going out, having fun, and meeting new people.
Without her, you will have lots of time for yourself.
Hang out with your buddies.
Buy video game title you've been longing to have.
Date the woman that caused your argument.
Use your time to enjoy being single because sooner or later, you will find they next girl.
Don't take revenge.
Yes, she broke your heart, but taking revenge by spreading rumors about her and telling things against her person violates your manhood and prevents you from moving on.
If you want to take revenge, show to her that you are totally fine with what happened.
Have some fun and follow the tips mentioned above and you'll come out better off than you were.
