I am going to tell you how to get over your breakup. I have been in your shoes. The crying, the puffy eyes, thinking your world is over. I don't care if you went through a break up two days ago or two months ago, I'm here to help you get over it.

Step 1.

Cry. Bawl your little eyeballs out. If you have to watch a sad movie to make you sob, do it. If you want to crawl up in his sweatshirt and fall asleep crying in it, do it. If you want to go driving around for hours crying, then do it. Let it all out. It will not benefit you to pretend you are fine, because face it, you aren't. Give yourself three full days to grieve over your breakup.

Step 2.

Block your ex on all forms of social media. NO this is not immature. This is for you and your well being. Seeing him on your feed when you're having a good day is going to upset you. I don't care how curious you are about how they are doing, block your ex. "Bye boy bye," as Beyonce would say. This will help your healing process. Seeing a picture of him will just open up old wounds. Get rid of his stuff. Burn it for all I care, or sell it like I did. Not having his things laying around your room is such a freeing feeling. This is so important for you to do.

Step 3.

Take one whole day for yourself. Be alone. Take yourself on a date your ex never took you on. Go to your favorite restaurant, hold puppies, get your nails done. Maybe go buy new makeup and contour the s**t out of your face and tease your hair real big (thats what I do). You do you, because you know what really makes you happy. End your night with a hot shower and reading a new book. Read a new book because this is a new and better chapter in your life.

Step 4.

Spend time with your friends! You love these awesome humans so let them cheer you up. Let them love you and take care of you. Get hammered with them, go to an art museum, or rock climbing or something. What ever you and your bad selves do, go do it and enjoy it. Do not talk about your ex during this time with them though, this is your time to reconnect with your friends again. Have fun, be silly, and let your guard down.

Step 5.

BE CONFIDENT. Do not let your ex rule how you view yourself. You are an important, beautiful, and kind soul. You are an intelligent being with an amazing passion for life. You will find someone one day who loves you as much as an otter loves their favorite rock (look that up, you won't regret it). You will find the mac to your cheese, the Marshal to your Lily, the Jack to your Sally. For now though, don't forget how amazing you are.

Step 6.

Love yourself. This step will take time. It takes time to figure out what you love about yourself, what truly makes you happy. This journey though is one meant for you and you alone. When you love yourself first you might be surprised to see all the cool stuff that happens after that. Just be patient and take this time in your life for you. I know that I wouldn't trade this time in my life for anything. This is your time baby, so shine!
