How do you let go?

Answer 1

Unfortunately there isn't a quick fix. Nor is there an answer that works for everyone. Some may tell you to go out on a bunch of dates with lots of different people. Others may tell you to drown out your sorrows. I have found taking it one day at a time to be the best. It is so painful, I know, to lose someone, but letting go is the best thing you can do for both yourself and the person you love. At first it hurts and its very painful, some days worse than others, but eventually after enough time has passed it gets easier and easier. One day you'll wake up and realize you don't hurt anymore. During this time it is important to keep yourself occupied with stuff you love to do. If you had certain hobbies before you were dating and you let those go by the way-side pick them back up. Try to avoid activities and places that remind you of that person. Speaking from personal experience, the absolute worst thing you can do is call/text/email etc your ex. They don't want to hear you sobbing etc and all it does is hurt you when you don't hear what you want to hear. In fact, if you "bug" your ex enough you could get to a point where they won't even talk to you anymore. Basically, take it one day at a time. Remember what a wonderful person you are inside...work on bringing that person out. You'll eventually find yourself laughing at the breakup... it sounds bizarre, but it does happen :) Best Wishes

When one has invested in a relationship (of any sort), has certain expectations, it is not easy seeing it falling apart. But as someone has said, you can repair the broken vase but the crack will still show. Thus, one needs to let go. There are some experiences which just make us stronger and surer of ourselves. It is tough when we are going through it and saying goodbye to something one cares so much about, but, it is better to let go than hang on to the remains.

One fails but has to keep having the faith.. Everyday is a new beginning. Firstly, one should know that the failure of any relation is not a reflection of self. Even though I am not a believer of destiny, I do think there are some things not meant to happen. There is always a reason for whatever happens and even though it is not clear or important to us then, it will make sense someday. We are human and everyone of us is unique. Think of the relation as an equation.. its always solvable and with a result. It might take time to crack the equation but someday it will be solved.

letting go is an important process in understanding one selves. If we respect ourselves and the other person, we would not want to keep them unwillingly. Moving on is crucial simply cause that is life. It is constantly evolving. One can keep hanging in, keep hoping, keep pining for the one who left but this only makes one weaker.
