Cupid’s Advice:
Exes are a sore subject for many. Â Staying focused on what’s happening in the present always helps to avoid reliving those heartbreaking moments, and it keeps gossip at a standstill. Â Here are some tips:
1. Don’t talk about it: Although this may be easier said than done, talking about the past brings up old feelings and memories that can bring you back to a bad time in your life.  Try to avoid conversations about your previous love life for the sanity of you and your partner.
2. Keep a positive attitude: Sometimes talking about your past mate is inevitable. Â During those times, try to stay positive and talk about some of the good that came out of it.
3. Focus on the present: If you focus on what’s happening in the now, there is no need to constantly relive the past.  Cast your attention toward a new job, new look or even a new love.
