How To Properly Handle A Break Up

By Rebecca Griffin

A breakup is one of the most difficult things to deal with in life. I know very well from experience what it can be like. After it is all done though, it is usually a growing and learning experience for both parties.

A lot of people at some point have wanted to reconcile with an ex. Before you can do that you need to understand completely why you broke up in the first place. If you get back together with the same unresolved issues it would be for nothing because inevitably the same problems would arise again. Every couple handles things in their own way. Also it is usually a very difficult situation.

Of course, your inborn feelings tell you to get in touch with your ex, and begin the procedure of reuniting with them. So, you pick up the phone with your heart on your sleeve, prepared to let them know what an error this is, and you desire for them to come back. I am certain that you realize it would be wrong to do this, don't you?

You are filled with anxiety and are very impatient. You need to make sure you are ready in every way to pursue this reconciliation. You have to be strong mentally when you have to deal with a breakup with someone, not for your benefit alone though, for tha benefit of the relationship as well.

You have to accept the fact that you are no longer together. You will not die even though it feels like you might. Sometimes a couple actually needs a break to re-evaluate their relationship, and sometimes in the end the relationship is better than it was before.

Are you feeling that strong urge to call your former significant other? Before you pick up that phone, stop and think about your plan to reconnect with this person. You are separated and are supposed to be taking time to let your emotions heal. It may seem counterintuitive, but being by yourself for a while will allow your emotions to heal and will improve your chances for a reconciliation. Perhaps this time on your own will even make you a better person.

You are in a very sensitive situation and need some time to recover from the trauma a breakup causes. You need to learn to love yourself again, before you try to reunite with your ex.

It also proves that you value your exs limits. You know that even they are having a hard time and they also require time to be by themselves. This shows you in a very adult and reverential light, making you very attractive to your ex. So while you are emotionally broken inside, consider all the things that you are achieving by remaining detached.
