Have you just recently broken up with the love of your life? Here are 30 simple ways to get over him:
1. Bury his pictures on the ground. Declare that your eyes shall never peep nor stare at them again!
2. Remove his contact details from you mobile phone, e-mail, wallet, refrigerator door, cork board, lecture notebook, etc.
3. Watch a TV series marathon with a cold lead character like House, M.D.
4. List all the things that you didn't like about him while you were still together, rip the pages of the list and throw them (burn if you can).
5. Open a blogger.com account and get busy blogging
6. If you can't do number 5, just read someone else's blog like Mind, Heart, and Mysteries.
7. Meditate. If you see him while doing so, open your eyes and then start again.
8. Have you tried cross stitching?
9. Learn T’ai Chi, Kung Fu or any other kind of martial art. During free sparring, express your emotions! Beat your opponent!
10. Watch Amazing Race. Observe how couples are when under stress. Be thankful you are single.
11. Learn how to bake. If you have a low budget or have not baking oven, try no bake recipes like tortillas!
12. Download games from GameHouse or PopCap -- I recommend Diner Dash or Granny in Paradise – if you are up for a more challenging game, download Sudoku.
13. Gather the CDs you always play when you were together. If you two had a soundtrack, take it out of the Shire and bring the CD in the land of Mordor -- it must be destroyed with the fires of Mt. Doom!
14. Go food tripping. Try to order food you have never ordered/tasted before. I recommend jelly beans (vomit or swamp flavors are the best!). Do this with a muggle friend.
15. Don’t drink or smoke when you are trying to get over someone. It will prolong the suffering. Instead see number 16.
16. Try to stay healthy and beautiful. Let not the broken relationship break you. You may feel like trash, but you are not trash.
17. Make a "break up" song (I did this!) and if you have an innate musical talent, you might even earn big bucks!
18. Go to the beach. If you need to bury your entire lower extremities, do it. Just don't bury yourself.. and remember to put on sun block.
19. That shirt he gave you, wrap and keep it in a box! If you want to donate it, don't give it to someone you always see.
20. Clean your bathroom using a toothbrush.
21. Wipe your floor using your non-dominant hand.
22. Invest in stock market.
23. Get a pet animal to love and cherish >> suggestions: horse or rhinoceros (if you have a spacious room) and iguana or boa constrictor (if you have a small room)
24. If you don't like animals, get a Venus fly trap.
25. Re-paint your flat/house with a Chinese brush
26. Watch Tomb Raider , Ultraviolet, or Elektra -- be empowered!
27. Get yourself busy with friendster (and add me as your friend!). Just in case your “ex” tries to view your account, let him see that you are unavailable -- indicate in your profile that you are "in a relationship"
28. Watch The Matrix and realize that your “ex” is not real. He is just an image. A stimulus which sends electrical signals throughout your nerves interpreted by your brain as a hot, lovable, cuddly, and irresistible man.
29. Make a list on how to get over you guy, print it out and stick the copy on your mirror. Make it your mission to do everything on the list. Cross out the ones you have accomplished.
30. You may do anything in this list just remember that you don't have to commit to another relationship. Allot a "mourning" period for yourself (you may even listen to Josh Groban songs during this time). It is okay to get hurt and to miss him for a while. But know that it will only be for a while. Be happy that you had the chance to love and be loved, but accept the fact that the only permanent thing in this world is change.
Give yourself a while and move on.
Good luck!
