Cupid’s Advice:

Break-ups can be stressful and often come with a lot of heartaches. The best ways to cope with a recent split can be different for everyone, from hanging out with your friends to eating ice cream from the carton. Cupid has some advice on coping with a recent break-up:

1. Lean on your friends: Sometimes the worst thing you can do after a split is to sit at home alone and dwell on the past. Take this time to spend time with your friends. Go out, dance, and let them help you take your mind off of your break-up; let them be there for you the way you’d be for them if the roles were reversed.

2. Stick to a routine: A break-up can make you feel like the rug has been pulled from beneath your feet. It can be easy to get lost in your sadness and focus on the loss, but sticking to a schedule will help you avoid getting lost in a long crying abyss even if it is something as simple as setting your alarm, taking a shower at a specific time each night, or whatever helps you keep moving forward.

3. Express yourself: Feeling lonely or upset and sad is normal after splitting with your partner. Take some time for yourself and find a way to express your feelings; don’t keep them bottled up because you could wind up exploding when you least expect it. Draw, paint, or just keep a journal so that you can get your feelings out in a healthy way.
