M2155 Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 I have a post about the pros and cons of blocking on FB, I am undecided there. I don't know the answer because I go in circles of missing him, anger, acceptance, sadness (that one is the worst). I've challenged myself to do NC and keep a countdown on my mirror, as well as journaling my thoughts. Like they say, keep active. Easier said than done because when I'm out on the social scene is when I feel the most lonely. Being on this forum helps a little believe it or not. Also browising the online dating sites, just seeing someone who sparks my curiosity gives me a little hope that I will find a connection one day.

Thank you. Go out and enjoy the sunlight! surround yourself with your real life friends, get some exercise and enjoy the real world. Facebook is many things 1. The Red Carpet for beautiful people with ZERO talent 2. The place where we rise to our level of emotional and intellectual incompetence. 3. A 600 Million person popularity contest. One thing it is not, is REAL! Go for a walk.....clear your head...and no status updates necessary!

magnus mateo Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Start on a mission of self improvement. Increase your value to yourself and to others. Continually learn. Learn from real life and learn from textbooks. Now is the time to focus on yourself. Hope this helps. Good luck!
Graceful Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Mandy, I just posted on your other thread; now I see this one, so here are a few suggestions. You're still in school, so you already have a lot to do to keep up with your coursework and focus on your studies. That's numero uno. Physical exercise. Go out with your friends - to do just about anything. Feeling good about yourself goes two ways: inside out and outside in. Take care of your appearance, that goes a long way to making you feel confident. Know that you're going through one of life's toughest knocks. Breakups truly hurt. But the pain also does pass in time, and the pain is temporary, so there is light at the end of the tunnel. As for "moving on" -- try not to fixate on that too much. Just go one day at a time. As the days pass, and you see weeks go by, you're surviving, maybe even thriving over time, you'll know you're moving on. It's not something you can do consciously, all you can do is build on your sense of identity and healing. Just let it happen. It will. So i just now deactiveated my fb account.
