What, according to you, are the best ways to move on and get over someone?

Discuss with someone sensible and fair-minded what went wrong. Get it clear in your mind the areas that you could do something about and improve in yourself rather than dwell on any misdeeds on the part of your ex.

Then get out and involve yourself in social activities. If you can find voluntary work that you really enjoy, the act of helping others will take you out of yourself. It's sitting and going over and over what someone has done to you, feeling resentful, hard done by and bitter is the worst possible thing.

You can't get over it that way. Change something about yourself to feel you're making a fresh start: your clothes, your regular restaurant, even your route to work, whatever. 'I'm starting anew and I'm going to enjoy life' needs to be your attitude. Hard at first, but involving yourself in activities will work.

First, it is important to come to terms with the reality and accept that it is time to move on. Take time to grieve your loss, losing a relationship hurts a lot because you lose a part of yourself. Take time to reflect on the relationship and your own behaviour rather than trying to suppress the feelings. This will also help you to learn new things about yourself and what you want from a new relationship.

Surround yourself with people who truly care so you don’t wallow into your grieving period. This will help add meaning back into your life.

Shift your mental focus from the person to yourself; get rid of things that remind of this person. You can also take a new hobby at this time; all of these will help you focus on yourself.

Don’t rush moving on, don’t rush into another relationship. Give it time because time does heal all wounds.
