The song says breaking up is hard to do.
Another song says that there are 20 ways to leave your lover, but there's only one best way to get over your ex.
Break ups rank as one of the most stressful and difficult times in people's life, and they can be very hard to get over.
The first thing you need to realize is that you can get over it.
If the break up is fresh, the devastation can make you feel like there is no light at the end of the tunnel.
But you have to remember that you can get over them and you will get over them.
There are some preliminary steps you need to take to begin to get ready to get over them.
They might be painful, but they are key to getting over your ex, so you need to do them, and you should do them as soon as you can.
The very first step is to get rid of reminders.
This can easily be one of the most difficult things you can do.
You have lots of memories wrapped up in those items, and you may not want to just throw them away.
But the truth is, having them staring you in the face while you are trying to recover from a breakup is going to be counter productive.
You need to get a fresh start, and that means you're going to need to start over.
Any and all reminders of them have to go.
You don't have to actually throw them away, but you do need to get them out of your life.
Then you need to start dating other people.
You don't have to fall madly in love, and you don't need to date just one person, but you do need to date.
Dating is one of the best ways to take your mind off your ex.
It's not just the obvious reason, which is that you have someone else to think about.
It's also that the very idea of dating, all the preparation you have to do, all the looking for someone to date, will give you something to think other than your ex.
This is a great way to focus your mind on something else.
The ultimate tip on how to get over your ex is also the simplest.
But you need to remember that simple isn't the same as easy, which is why you should do the steps I've mentioned first.
You need to understand why you broke up.
I don't mean the superficial reason, like a fight or them cheating on you.
You need to dig deeper and figure out what was wrong with the relationship to begin with that was the real reason that you broke up.
Understanding this is the key to getting over it.
What keeps you thinking about your ex, what keep you coming back is not having a real view of the relationship.
Once you do, you can move past the break up.
This is the best way to get over your ex, but it's not necessarily going to be easy.
But you need to remember that you can do it.
