“I want to forget, but I just can’t!” 5 Ways to Get Over Your Ex

What can you do about this? Today, we gathered a group of young, single females in their late teens and 20s and asked if they had a quick-fix remedy to help them move on with their lives after a breakup.

1. Fill up your schedule book and make yourself busy.


“I pack my schedule full with events and try to leave no time to think about my ex,” a young woman in her late teens says, taking a proactive approach.
