Merged: All About Letting Go/ Moving On

[iCharleston]

---

Keep a daily journal.
Letting loose on your emotions is a quick and self-healing way to recover from incidents of loss and pain. This is especially true of keeping a journal. Make a commitment to write for at least a few minutes every day.

Learn at least one new thing a day.
Keep your mind busy with new information. Whether you decide to learn a new word or how to do something new on your computer, it will help you keep moving forward instead of looking back.

Take a daily walk.
Get yourself out and about with a 20 to 30 minute walk. Just the constant, repetitive motion of moving your legs one after another is enough to help you put things in perspective.

Go out with yourself.
Just because you are not attached to someone doesn't mean you can't enjoy going out. Think of it as a chance to go to all the places you've always wanted to go.

Develop a hobby.
Maybe there is something you've always wanted to learn how to do. Now is the perfect opportunity to develop it! Try anything from bicycling, joining a walking club, sewing, bodyboarding or surfing, learning how to watercolor, or cooking.

..lisud jud byuh i-move on, pero i know time can help u heal the wounds, as time goes by, slowly maka-limot ra ka sa tanang pain, bit by bit mawala ra na.. easy for me to say pero hard to do byuh jud, i for one is still on the process of moving on, and lisud xa in terms na we still communicating with each other, kamo? are u still having communications?

Lisod jd if naa pa mo communication, sis..I thought gani I'm over him na, but when I started texting him again, sa dihang nibalik tanang pain and nibalik pod tanang desires nko to be with him..Maau gani ky nakahuna2 kog tarong before I acted on my feelings and went running back to him..Giputol nko balik amo communication ui ky it does not help jd..

After 27 year of my existense in this world, i fell in love for the first time with this girl who happens to be a collegue in work. I never realized how much i love her til we broke up. for the first time, i experienced so much pain. betrayal etc.

Our relationship lasted for 2 years. I love her so much that it caused me so much pain and even though i am the one who was betrayed, still i begged for her to go back to me, eating up all my pride as a man. She refuse to be back because she is afraid that she might not equal the love that i give her and she needs to be alone daw to find wat she really wants. Even though I finally accepted the fact that were done na,confronted na and told her that I let her go na, still my heart is hoping. Please help. I need to get over this feeling. I still look for her, still think of her. Wat will i do to forget her? Im so madly inlove with her. Sometimes, words are easier said than done. Do you have any tips?

ouch. . . i know how it feels bro...

of course you will always miss her. especially that you've been together for a while. try to divert your attention. try new things. red horse ginagmai... hehehe

always remember happiness is a choice. try to be happy even if you are on your own.

prove to yourself that your happiness isn't dependent on anyone.

it's really hard to let go of someone so dear to us. but sometimes even if we don't want to, we're left with no choice. moving on means letting go.

"letting go is like getting a tooth pulled out by a dentist.
pull it out, you are relieved. but how many times does your tongue run itself over the spot where the tooth once was? probably a hundred times a day. just because it wasn't hurting you doesn't mean you don't notice it. it leaves a gap and sometimes you see yourself missing it terribly. it's going to take a while, it takes time.

should you have kept the tooth? no. because it was causing you so much pain."

You have to come up with a decision to let go and move on..That's the first thing you should do before everything..Mind over matter bro..

As copied from my post in another thread:

The first thing to do is to decide..Decide that the relationship is over, decide that there is nothing you can do about it (that is if there is really no way you can mend things) and decide that you want to move on..This has always been my first step when I want to get over and done with a relationship..And I'd say, this is the most important and the first thing a person should do not just in love but also in life..Better expressed in tagalog, Isaksak mo sa kukuti mo that moving is what you want, what you need to do and what is the best to do..Once this line of thinking has gotten into your brain and whole system, things will fall in place accordingly..You will be able to find other things to do for the time you used to spend on nurturing the relationship, and eventually, the relationship will turn into nothing but mere memories..
