Regardless of how the relationship ended, thinking about your ex with someone else will always hurt at first.

Why does it have to be with someone else?

But you will find someone who can.

What if they start dating again before you do?Everyone moves on at different paces.

Dont force yourself to date again because you feel like you have to.

Moving on can be a long process, but it should be done at a pace youre comfortable with.

The most painful part of all this is that you have to accept anything can happen.

Maybe they will date someone they were friends with while they were with you.

Think about all the possibilities that will open up to you as time goes on.

The thing is, the growth you gain from a relationship will always be specific to that particular relationship.

Maybe you and your ex never would have ended up dating.

Thinking about our once most beloved person dating someone else can be difficult to deal with.

They may be happier with someone else, but you will be too one day.
