It's hard to accept when the other person just stops loving you.. You
cannot move on until you stop obsessing, but that's easier said than
done, right? Here's what worked for me...Tell the person to bug off.
Just as you must cease contact with the object of your affection, he or
she must cease contact with you. Tell this person you're not ready to
be friends (see more)
and you don't know if you ever will be. Any patronizing emails they
send inquiring to your well-being will be left unread and marked as
SPAM.
Write down all the things that bothered you. After being
dumped, it's natural to idealize the dumper. We remember the happy
events and tender moments, but we forget about the time he was chatting
away with a blob of scrambled egg stuck to his lip, or how mascara used
to crumble in her eye sockets. We forget about the stack of Victoria's
Secret catalogs he kept on his night table, or her fondness for using
four-letter words in 4-Star restaurants. Nobody is perfect. Everybody
has faults, so write down a list of the object of your affection's
worst traits and pull it out every time that scene of the two of you
fooling around at sunrise pops into your head. Tape a copy to your
bathroom mirror while you're at it, so you see it first thing in the
morning.
Throw out all reminders. It doesn't even have to be a gift.
It could be a book you discussed, a bottle of wine you shared that's
still on your kitchen counter, or the sheets you slept on together.
Treat yourself by replacing everything. Start fresh.
Turn off the
radio. You're minding your own business, doing quite well, thank you,
when all of a sudden some song comes on the radio that reminds you of
the object of your obsession. Change the channel. Snap off the radio.
Act fast, or in an instant you will be back where you started, treading
the cycle of being in love, jilted, depressed, hopeful, and delusional.
