You know the relationship is over; you may even know that it’s for the best that it’s over, but moving on can still be a hard thing to accomplish. You feel as if your whole world has been turned upside down and that nothing is normal in your life anymore.
Your family and friends may present big hurdles as you prepare to move on. If your family was very fond of your ex and had planned on this being a permanent relationship, they may find it hard to accept that you are ready to move onYou may have to let them know you are tired of the questions and the constant reminders of the broken relationship. You may have to be firm in letting them know that the relationship is over and you are trying to move on with your life. Eventually they will come around; after all you are family and they love you.
If you and your ex had a lot of mutual friends that you hung out with as a couple, it may seem strange for you to be with them without your ex. There’s also the possibility that your ex will want to maintain those friendships also. You may even run into each other.
It may mean that you have to give up some of those friendships. Do try to keep in contact with those you’re closest to and allow your ex to do the same. Don’t force your friends to take sides. Cutting ties with some friends will be painful, but in the long run it will probably be easier on everyone.
When you’re moving on the breakup is over, this may be the time when you don’t need to be around mutual friends. The memories just may be too painful. If possible, take a vacation with a friend who isn’t involved in the situation. Being with someone who wasn’t also a friend of your ex will help you see things in a new way. Help in moving on
