How to move on after a relationship gone bad!

Two posts in one day! How ambitious (I am following the inspiration of my first post, and it's rainy, and I just got a manicure which makes me want to type)!!! I decided to scour the internet looking for ways to get over a break-up and I found some really good ones!! 


Here are some great tips:


1. (This is of utmost importance) Cut off ALL communication with your x, whether you broke up with him and want him to make SURE he knows what he's missing or he broke up with you and you want to BITCH HIM OUT, both ways, you look desperate and pathetic (sorry but it's time for tough love ladies)!! Ask yourself, "what would the most confident, beautiful, get any man she wants, woman do in this situation?" because guess what, You are Her! Last time I checked, neither super models, princesses, or heiresses, are running after men, and neither should you!! Now I will be the first to admit that this is a very hard step, and sometimes you may cave, but this is the only way to move on! Change your number if you have to, delete his e-mails, when you see him out, leave immediately. . . . at this point it is all about self preservation, so avoid all contact!! 


2. Now, after you have been a good girl and haven't communicated with your x for awhile, reward yourself!!! Get a pedicure, a massage, a manicure, or all of the above! Do something for you, spoil yourself! You've been through hell and you deserve it!


3. Get rid of ALL memories, they only make you sad. . destroy them, burn them, sell them, give them away. Whatever you gotta do, do it! Get rid of the baggage and move on!!


4. Change your surroundings!! Go out and buy amazingly scented candles, get new sheets, paint your room, anything to give a breath of fresh air to your world! Now is YOUR time, so start fresh and new!!


5. With the dead weight now off your back (even if he was amazing, if he left you, there was a problem with him, so count your blessings, or, if he left because you made a mistake, love forgives, if he didn't, he's an asshole) it's time to celebrate!! Do the things you never got a chance to, if you always wanted red hair, but he hated red hair, screw him, DYE THAT HAIR!! If you always wanted to get a cat, go out and adopt the little furry beast. If you hate making your bed, but he insisted, vow to never make it again!!


6. Don't date someone new right away! Break-up's take time, no matter how well you handle it. It is important to take alone time and properly heal before attempting something new, so for the time being, be in love with yourself, do things that make you happy, be a little selfish for once. Volunteer, get a job, start working out, anything and everything, do it!! Getting out there really helps, and by doing things that help others, you will feel more complete and happy! Making a difference in other's lives really helps to cure the sadness you are feeling. 


Now. . with these tips in mind, here is the most important FACT of all. . You are worth it! Period.
