Getting Over Someone....

Sidenote: Tips that I found are helpful in getting over someone. This is mainly for my friend but it's really helpful for people who need help getting over a crush, breakup, a thing they had with someone. If a guy screws you over don't let them win by making you sad #GIRLCODE [ Also you don't have to go in order]

1. Ask yourself why you’re still holding on. Answer it truthfully, too. Maybe it’s, "Oh, well, we had such great times together," or "I just find that person so great." Whatever it is, answer it. Yet also look at what you are ignoring about this person. "He doesn't seem like he cares." "He never text's me first." You may find that what you thought was ideal really wasn't.

2. Remove all memories/mementos of the person from your everyday life. They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder. What they don't tell you is that too much absence makes the heart grow distracted. In your case, this is good! Especially when it comes to social media. If this person is a constant updater and they remind you all the time about them block them. On Facebook, Instagram, twitter deleting their phone number is a huge step.

3. Ignore them. Try not to talk or even look at that person. It's hard to control your thoughts, of course, but when that someone does something to get noticed or be near you, try to notice something else or be somewhere else. You won't get over someone you obsess over by just going with the flow.

4. Avoid being in the same place as the person, if possible. Avoiding the person is a good way to tell your body and mind that there are plenty of other people in the world who could demand your attention. Because it's true: There are plenty of other people out there, and your whole life doesn't have to revolve around one person.

5. Avenge yourself, if necessary.[hahaha] This is not meant in the harsh physical way. It means you should do everything to show them you don't care anymore. Sometimes, this can simply be achieved by being your normal self. Stop trying to impress them if you did so in the past. Instead, start doing the things you want to do, such as wearing clothes you actually like, doing sports you love, listening to music you like, etc.

6. Lean on your friends. Your friends are there to help you. Through thick and thin. They give you advice, along with a shoulder to rest on. Go out with your friends, be happy with them. Don't just sit locked up in your room, isolated from the people who want to be around you.

7. Take your time. Don't forget: forgetting takes time. It can take as long as years to get over someone. But it does get easier. Life is never easy, but the more you understand, and the better you understand about yourself, the easier it will get. Pretty soon, you'll look back, laugh, and wonder: "What was I thinking?!"
