How to Not Get Over Your Ex-Girlfriend
Written by Anthony Parkes on Ex-Girlfriends - Follow him on Twitter.
Guys like to torture themselves.
Here are some bulletproof techniques to ensure that you don’t get over your ex. I’ve used them before and they work amazingly well.
When it’s over, it’s over. Many guys adopt the “no one can understand me” mindset and get stuck in an endless depression. Depression is pointless. You’re only depressed because you want to. It’s up to you to get back on your feet as quickly as possible.
5 Tactics to Not Get Over Your Ex
#1 – Drink
Drinking in my experience multiplies the power of your emotions by 10 – for the better and the worst. It’s extremely dangerous: one night, I was depressed over my ex and emptied nearly half a bottle of Vodka – I did that alone. First, I nearly committed suicide. Second, I was rushed to hospital and nearly died of alcohol intoxication.
A bad break-up is no excuse to do stupid or careless things. Drinking only makes things worse. Oh, and don’t drink alone, ever.
#2 – Isolate Yourself
Refuse to talk or see anyone, because no one can share your grief. It’s so unfair, nobody can understand you. Thousands of people get dumped every day, so get a grip on yourself. Start going out, have fun.
Please, don’t shut yourself out – it makes things so much harder, and that much worst.
#3 – Beg Her
Dude, you have to keep your dignity and man up. It ain’t the end of the world. Well maybe it is, but only for a short time, I promise. Don’t go back to her and cry the shit out of your eyes. You’re a man, so act like one.
You won’t get her back that way. I’ve tried that, and it doesn’t work. No one is responsible for your happiness, no one can make you happy apart from you. So make the decision to be happy. It’s a question of maturity.

#4 – Stalk Her
That’s gotta be even worse. The longer you spend seeing, talking, and thinking about her, the slower you’ll get over her. Besides, stalking is creepy, and you’re disrespecting her privacy.
After a break-up, there’s usually no going back. Implement the no-contact rule. Trust me, this is what’s best for your own health.
#5 – Be Depressive
Like I’ve said above, being happy is a personal choice. You can decide to get over her, or you can decide to be depressed. Yes, it’s hard, and it does take a huge amount of willpower, but hey, thousands of great guys like you get over their ex-girlfriends every day. You can do it too.
Don’t take the easy way out. Battle hard for dignity and self-respect. Choose to be happy. You can do it! I’ve helped many guys who were struggling to get over their exes, so if you need any support, help, or motivation, shoot me an email. I’d be honored to help you out.

Keep well, and keep your dignity. Peace.
