The best thing after a break up was, of course, to let go. That's the first thing to do, the most important thing. Because, if you are able to let go of someone, you do not need anything else to do because your heart has let it go. I don't think things in the self help books would tell you the same thing with the different ways packed on beautiful words, but only with the same meaning. Letting go.
It is up to you whether you want to do it with what way, you know your self so much better than the books. You know how to make you fall and you know how to make you let go.
I am so glad that you were still in a relationship, and I hope you don't have to experience the broken heart. Good luck eiram25

It's really hard to lose someone you love.
I also don't believe that time will heal.
It is yourself and only you that will heal all the hurts.
Help yourself to recover.
How?
Always think that she/he is not worth your love.
Go out and make friends.
Open your heart, don't think of closing your heart to anyone because it will not help you to move on.
Always keep yourself busy.

Umm...the best thing to do after a break up!
It really hurts when you are in a relationship that is serious!
If you really love the person you would never want it to end.But there come certain circumstances in life that make you ask yourself...that you cant Force anyone to be with you. Whenever there is a break up...the first thing you should realize is that you just cannot control the other person's life...what you can control is...your own life.
So, all you need to do is to make yourself understand that you dont get anything and everything in life...
The best way to get over it is -
To hang out with friends...
To make them stop talking about the person you've broken up with
To delete all messages and pictures from your cell,laptop,etc (If the break up has been a real bad one)
To indulge yourself into a lot of activities...it can be your daily work, your friends, your hobbies , whatever...just to take your mind off that person.
And by the way Eiram25, i really hope you never have a heart break man! cos it really hurts...and anybody whose experienced it..would never want anyone else to even think of getting close to one!
Wish u all the luck in love and life :)

Hi eiram25! Best thing to do after a break up? You can do anything by diverting your attention to other things. Call a good friend or two and unwind together and let the time pass away. If any of your friends are not available, eat some comfort foods or surf the net. Clean your room (if you have a room). Cook something weird. Draw something on a piece of paper. Dance like no one is watching. Sing your heart out, etc.
Never jump into a new relationship when a wounded heart is still fresh and is not totally healed. Move on completely to a new life, to a new you that has become stronger after a failed relationship. ;)

Hi there eiram25!
It's not easy moving on after a breakup. It may pain us to remember all the things and good times we shared. After a while though we realize that there is no other way to go but forward. It is important to do away with things that would remind us of the past. Going out with friends and spending more time with our family can help. It would also be of great help to learn a new hobby that you can spend your time on.

Well when trying to move on or moving one the best next thing not to do is to jump immediately to a new relationship. Let your heart rest and enjoy not being into one too soon. Let yourself rest from that and let the lessons learned from the past be your guiding light for your next relationship. It is not the end of the world so do hope finding a new and much better relationship. Just stay cool and be around with friends that can support you all the way.
