I asked my followers what their favorite break up quotes were and you guys delivered! Hundreds of break up quotes to put as your phone background or put on a post-it note around your house.
I wanted to create a post for those that are too scared to do No Contact and for those who believe it’s impossible. This post is full of over 30 success stories of how No Contact has helped people like you let go of their ex and find peace in their break up.
I compiled a list of TV shows and movies that you can watch with a lower likelihood of having your break up pain triggered. These are TV shows and movies with minimal love scenes, that are funny, or are just overall a good distraction. Add them to your watch list!
Music has always been a big part of my life and has always played a huge role in my relationships and break ups, especially my break ups. I think music can help us process our emotions, it can cheer us up, and it can transport us back to another time.
Just because you’re going through a break up doesn’t mean you should'n’t have things to look forward to. I asked my followers what’s on their single bucket list and I had to put together a post of all of the amazing things they’re doing in their single life.
We see the term affirmations bouncing around the Internet a lot. Affirmations are typically an “I am” statement that helps reinforce something positive in us or something that we’re striving for. They can be used to help us change our mindset towards our body, towards money, towards our career, and I also believe they can be super valuable in break ups.
It’s normal to feel shaken up, chaotic, and flustered. It’s also normal to have a very loud mind that continues to tell you super negative things. I remember after my break up I felt like I couldn’t sit still for more than 5 minutes without a wave of agonizing emotions coming over me, so I stayed reallllly busy, but obviously that isn’t sustainable for anyone.
Relationships can easily feel like our entire life, especially if you’re like me and have had a history of codependent relationships. But it’s important to remember that a relationship isn’t our entire life, and we do have a lot of beautiful things outside of the fact that our favorite person in the world was just ripped from us.
When we’re going through a break up our life feels like it’s turned upside down. Our insides are broken, screaming, lost, and every other negative emotion in between. Life feels dark and unsafe, and we feel like it will last that way forever. Because of all of these reasons, it makes it so much more important to create a safe place on the outside to resemble some sort of safety and peace on the inside. Below are some ways to create the most peace you can during this hectic time in life.
Breaking up can leave a lot of loose ends. If you’re living together, who moves out? Who gets the Netflix account, how will you split up going to friends’ gatherings, etc. What those loose ends can become, if not taken care of, are grey areas. Grey areas are situations where there’s not a clear boundary on how to deal with it.
Break ups can unfortunately bring out the worst in us. Every bad emotion we have is brewing and there are times when it feels like our emotions can take control of us and we act out in ways that we normally wouldn’t. While all of your emotions during this time are completely valid, no matter what they are- we do have some responsibility in terms of how we react and behave towards other people.
