moving on from a relationship is extremely difficult especially when you still love the person. while keeping yourself busy and time are very helpful in moving on they are not the only things you need to do. you must find things that you can invest yourself in-- find things that matter to you. without this the keeping busy will only provide very temporary relief. . in talking yourself through this imagine that the old you is a friend. think about what you were going through at the time and bring back how it all felt. then talk to that old you as you would talk to a friend. give her understanding. cry with her. let her know that she is more than her actions at that time that you can understand why she acted as she did and that she is still a good person and lovable. -- that is how you would feel toward and respond to a friend right? this will take time to work through. but with effort persistence and a caring feeling toward yourself you can slowly help yourself heal. if all of this feels too hard to do and you don't have a trusted friend who can help you through this then you might consider finding a therapist to help. .
