That’s an interesting question, sender. Let’s try not to use 'deal' at this point. We can say 'make peace' instead. Because from my perspective, it was a very long process. First, I did everything I could to keep myself busy so I wouldn’t have time to think about it. It might not work for everyone but that’s the fundamental part. I blocked any access that could make it easier for me to approach them again. The next step was to reflect on what went wrong, what I lacked or what didn’t work in my previous relationship, so the same mistakes wouldn’t happen again. Lastly, time is the best healer. It’s fine to feel gloomy or suddenly remember them but trust me, life always goes on.
