How To Get Over An Ex Boyfriend ...If You Think He Was "The One"

How to get over an ex boyfriend has a lot to do with how you understand 2 key things:

Love itself
And the pain you’re experiencing right now

The reason breakups can hurt is because people feel they have lost “the one”. They think that they will never love someone as much again and so have lost out at love itself. This of course is a false idea that commonly exists in society nowadays. The reality is that there is of course no such thing as the one.

But my ex boyfriend was such a good match!

You might think that your ex was a good 90% match for you, but what would happen if you met someone new that was a 95% match. The reason you feel so bad right now is because you probably don’t have anyone as good or better as your ex available to you right now.

If you did you wouldn’t feel as much pain because your future would no longer be uncertain like it can seem right now. And because you would have someone new again, this would mend the bruised ego you suffered when you were dumped.

But how does this help me get over an ex boyfriend?

What I have just explained shows that the pain you are feeling right now is internally focused. It has to do with your own fears and worries (uncertain future, are you attractive enough, bruised ego etc) rather than your “love” for someone else.

You don’t miss your boyfriend as such, but you miss the feeling you had when you were with him. The reality is that any decent guy can make you feel like this again. In my book “How To Get Over Anyone In Less Than A Week Using Psychology” I show the complete way of removing the memory of an ex from your mind to the point that you’ll be actually glad the breakup happened.

Aside from the principals and techniques I go through in the book, other ways that can help get over an ex boyfriend include:

Put away everything that reminds you of your ex: Anything your ex has given you should be kept away or disguarded for good. The less you will be reminded of him and your past relationship when there is nothing around to trigger such memories.
Spend time with your family and friends: Your family and your friends know you best and they take you for what you are. Find comfort in their smiles and do some catching up if you have been away from them for a while.
Pamper yourself: Do something that will make you feel good and look good. Visit a spa salon; get a massage, facials, manicure and pedicure, anything you can afford. Give yourself that time to get ready to face the world again with confidence. Word will also spread around that you are looking well, even after the break up.
Do something new: Forget the routines you did with your ex by doing new ones all by yourself. Discover that there is more to explore and more exciting things to see. Stay away from places you frequent together like a bar or a restaurant and visit places you’ve never been to yet.
Stay positive: It will help a lot if your brain is conditioned to being positive in completely erasing your ex from your system. You have to think that it is possible to get over him and your will is strong enough to support that goal you have set for yourself. You will be surprised when that day comes when you remember the boy but you don’t remember the feelings anymore.
