It's not yet "Breakup Season," which one of our ex-girlfriends claim takes place mid-summer, but this morning, we came across a great and epic story about getting over lost love. Read up now, and keep this handy in case D-Day arrives...
Here are the 7 tips for getting over that relationship that almost was. Surprisingly, "cranking up 'Tangled Up in Blue'" or "throwing a television out the window for catharsis" are not among the steps:
1. Letting Go
2. Release Tension and Bundled Up Energy [Hmm, we can think of a way to accomplish both of those at the same time...]
3. Love Yourself
4. Love Your Ex-Partner
5. Give it Time
6. Journal Your Experience
7. Read Something Inspirational
We have to disagree with at least one of those on a personal level-- not everyone enjoys journaling, particularly us blogger types that write all the damn day and want nothing to do with scribbling once the workday is wrapped. Does anyone have anything to add?
You can read the full explanations of these 7 steps, plus some personal musings by the post's author, at this site.
