How to cope with a break up?

Understand that you don't want to be with someone who isn't thrilled to be with you. Each relationship comes to us to teach us something or for us to teach that other person something about them. When the lesson is done, the relationship is complete and it's time to release the other person from your heart and from you life and create space in your heart for someone new.





So, think about what you learned from this relationship. It may be as simple as understanding what you don't want in a partner or mate. You may have learned to speak up for yourself. If you explore the relationship, you will know what you learned and what you taught. Now it's time to move to a new teacher/student and start the cycle again.





What's so hard about the breakup is letting go of all the expectations that come with a new relationship. Next time, have no expectations and just enjoy each person for what they bring you as long as it lasts.How to cope with a break up?
Take up a hobby or go do a hobby you already have to take your mind off of it.





Get ';right back on that horse'; and start meeting/talking with friends of the opposite sex. You will have time to grieve the loss of your partner while doing this.





Assuming you have already done all the talking you are going to do with your former significant other -- talk with your friends about it.





Have your friends take you out for an evening. Go to a happy movie or an action flick.





Make sure you get enough rest. Dealing with a break-up, or anything highly emotional, is easier when you are rested.How to cope with a break up?
Assuming your significant other is gone for good, you will just have to let time heal you. You need to know that better days are just down the road. Your best days truly are ahead of you.





When my wife left me I was devastated. Broken-hearted doesn't even begin to describe my feelings. But I was able to ask God to take my problem from me. When I was able to put my terrible burden in God's hands, I realized there was no way I could solve the problem by myself. So I didn't have to worry about it. There was nothing my worrying could accomplish. I had to let God fix the problem and do it in his own time. It still hurt some of the time but I was able to trust God and he did/is fixing it for me. And I had his assurance that, indeed, my best days were ahead of me.
