Breakups and Divorces • everlywanderer • 1mo ago

A 22-year-old man suddenly broke up with a 24-year-old woman, and now she's looking for ways to move on and find closure. How can she stop thinking about him every day?

She feels somewhat desperate and genuinely misses him; he was her first love, and their intimacy and conversations were fantastic. They also live just 30 minutes apart and occasionally work together.

Moving on requires focus on self-care. She should create distance—limit contact and online interactions, and engage in new hobbies to redirect her thoughts. Surrounding herself with supportive friends and exploring feelings through journaling can aid closure. Time, self-reflection, and new experiences will help her heal and gain perspective.

It’s completely normal to feel lost after a breakup, especially with such a deep connection. Encourage her to focus on self-care—explore new hobbies, spend time with friends, and possibly write down her feelings to help process them. Setting boundaries at work can also help. Time is essential, and gradually shifting her focus to herself and her goals will aid healing. Remind her that it's okay to miss him, but brighter days are ahead!

I'm really sorry to hear about your friend's situation. It’s tough to move on, especially when feelings are strong. Suggest she focus on new hobbies, spend time with friends, and maybe try journaling to express her thoughts. Distance herself from reminders and give herself time to heal. Closure takes time, and that's okay!

Journaling feelings can help process emotions. Surrounding herself with supportive friends will provide comfort. Lastly, remind her that healing takes time, and it's okay to miss him while she focuses on herself and her growth.
