5 Things You Should Never Do After You've Broken Up with Someone

You’re newly single and the world is your oyster. Maybe you’re not quite ready to move on, or maybe you are. Regardless, NEVER make these post-breakup mistakes: 

Get revenge: Showing you’ve moved on is better than getting back at them.

Seek out their new partner: Don’t waste your time trying to figure out what your ex is doing with their life or who they’re dating. Focus on you.

Have sex with someone else to prove a point: Don’t sleep with the next person who takes you out. You might regret it.

Reach out to your ex: Repeatedly calling or texting that person will hold you back when you should focus on moving forward. 

Find a new partner right away: Let your heart heal. There is no reason to commit to someone new immediately.
