The feeling after you fall back in love with yourself!!!!!!

I know must of you read the title of this article and was like “Ugh! Not another cliché article about how to get over a break-up.” Yes! This is another article about how to get over a break-up. but cliché? Cliché is just one of the many things that this article is not. This article is like having a heart to heart with your closest friend…Me! Well, I consider you all to be my friends so…anyways! Let’s get straight to the point. If you broke up with your boyfriend, girlfriend, fiancé or whoever and y’all have this like break-up to make-up relationship. Then, Sweetheart…This article isn’t for you. Y’all going to be back together in like 3 more minutes. Sorry not sorry. Anyways! This article is just my quick five steps to get over a break-up. Thank me later. I had to learn all this the hard way but that’s a story for another day.

1. Confirmation of Break-up. Take how much time you need on this this step. Just know once you pass this step there is no going back. Ask yourself these questions: Is this really what I want to do? Am I really done?

2. Cut all ties from everyone, anything, or anywhere that reminds you of your ex. Yes! This means delete them from all social media. Hell! Change your number if you must. It is important and okay to want your space or your alone time. You need this time to properly heal mentally, spiritually, and physically. You do not need any reminders of your ex that would prevent you from moving on and fully healing. TRUST ME YOU DO NOT WANT TO RUN INTO YOUR EX WITH ANOTHER GIRL OR BOY. IT WILL END UP JUST HURTING YOU ALL OVER AGAIN. (It’s okay to say hi or bye if you run into your ex family or friends but you shouldn’t since we’re trying to prevent that.)

3. No Shortcuts! Don’t try to avoid the pain. Every break-ups take a lot of time to heal from. No one can be over a break up in a few months or weeks. And if you do know a person 9/10 chance that they didn’t fully heal or is trying to avoid the pain which never ends well. Don’t you dare use family, friends, or anyone to try to avoid feeling the pain or heartbreak. That’s being selfish. I once read a quote that said, “If you don’t heal from what hurt you, you’ll bleed on people that didn’t cut you.” Don’ t avoid the pain but confront it. You want to be fully healed when you meet your future husband or wife. You don’t want to mess up your future because you still stuck on your past.

4. Fall Back in Love with You. Self-Love is always the key. If you don’t love yourself how do you expect someone else to love you. Take a break for relationships. In relationships we often put our spouse needs before our owns. Think of this time as a time to reconnect and fall in love with yourself again. It’s like dating yourself. Buy yourself flowers, chocolate, or gifts. Take yourself on a date. Fuck what people think. Look in the mirror and say “You look beautiful today. I love you.” ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT YOU IS THAT BITCH.

5. NEVER BACK TRACK!!!!! Never go back to the person your heart trying to heal from. If you do then you basically said, ‘Fuck Step One.” Trust me it never ends well when you do and if you one of the lucky one that things magically go well then FUCK YOU….. LOL!!! I’m just kidding but seriously NEVER BACK TRACK.
