   No communication

   .

   This simply means that you will not text your ex, call or email him r her. Besides what's the point?

If you really want to move on, create a distance between you and your ex otherwise you will have a hard time to pick up yourself because you are too busy thinking of your past relationship. In a case where your ex love is your classmate or work mate, just be casual and don't get close if not necessary.

    No more Cyber Stalking

    .

    You definitely know what I mean. Don't check your ex on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter or any social media account. Why do you need to snoop into others lives to see how happy your ex now that you're gone or to see how miserable he/she is? It won't help you. Unfriend and/or unfollow your ex. If your account is flooded with your ex status or whereabouts it might just tempt you to check on him/her. That is pathetic.

   No more Physical and Emotional Intimacy

   .

   This is plane and simple. Do not sleep or make physical contact with your ex love just because you have a "past".Let's make it clear that it is even worse on the part of the woman. Why? Female hormones produce oxytocin that triggers the feeling of affection and connection. In the end, you will be trap in this feeling of attachment that once you build with your ex. That is a bad idea if you really want to go on with your life. So how about emotional intimacy/ You break up with your ex, cry, move on, stay as friend and treat each other nicely up to the point that you still acting like you are still together even if you are already separated. Sounds so complicated? It is definitely complicated if you still high light your emotional intimacy with your ex. How can you start a new life if you stay with your old feelings and routine?

   Prepare a big box

   no matter how you build the wall from your ex from cutting your communication up to deleting him/her in your friends list if you still have all the things that will remind him/her of you,chances are you will end like a never ending movie rewinder. You need to collect all the things that will remind you of your past. Keep it out from your eyes or you may give it back to your ex especially if it is a personal stuff. Don't imitate what you see on movie like throwing it in the trash can or setting a fire to burn it. Once it is burn out or already pick up by the waste management it means that it is gone forever. You wouldn't want to throw the expensive things that you bought with him especially you pay for it right?

   Make-over

   .

   I heard this a lot from my female friends and whenever I hear this I know that they are referring with going to the salon. Admit it or not, when our partner left us, especially for the women, they think that they become ugly and undesirable to their love ones which is an extra factor why their relationship ended. Get a new hair cut. buy a new dress. Reinvent yourself. This will definitely bring back the confidence that actually knocks down when you separated from your love one.

1. 1
   Give yourself time to grieve

   .

   For most people, denial becomes the immediate response. However, denying the reality will never make things better. The pain will not dissipate if you deny it. Cry if you want to cry. Scream if it will make you feel better. Feel the pain. Acknowledging the pain is the first step to recovery. Do not let anyone rush you into feeling better. Take your time and you may even be surprised and be in a better disposition sooner than you expected. Different people have different styles and mechanisms for releasing their emotions. For some people, it would be good to talk to a close and trusted friend. For some, physical release may be more of a relief, so if that is the case, you better get yourself a punching bag. Still others may feel better after crying alone or writing down what they feel. Whatever mode of release works for you, do it.
