A practical toolkit on how to get over anyone: Stop idealizing and accept reality. Write a list of all the reasons they were wrong for you on your phone and read it everytime you miss them. Loved this TedTalk!

I did the exact same thing when I broke up with my last ex. I thought I was going to have a huge list of pros and a tiny list of cons. Nope. Turns out, I got tired writing all the cons down, and had to come back to it the next day. Needless to say, it was a huge wake up call.

This was so beautifully worded and exactly what I needed to hear today.

I have been doing this for years and let me tell you, it works. When he attempts to contact you or when you miss him, read that list and you are back to reality. I will never take back my exes thanks to this concept.
