It's probably the hardest part of a break-up when you think you're doing fine, keeping busy, meeting new people....and you just see one sentence or one image...and it brings it all back again.
Emotional relapse sucks.

That goes away eventually. It still happens to me from time to time, but not quite as often as it used to.

the most important thing is to let yourself feel it.
if you repress it you'll feel it later ten times worse than you would have if you let yourself feel it now.

hey, dnun...
so manhy people I know, have known, of your age are just enjoying life and not worrying about that.
SO! While it is definitely to be admired that you care so deeply-just think how it will be when the right one comes along

Amazingly, there is a good part to relapses. The further away you get from the end of a relationship, the less you have them and the faster you get through the painful feelings. I think it's how you know you're really healing.

"Emotional relapse" is a part of the grieving process. As has been suggested, ride the waves of your emotions. Let them be what they are, and do not try to suppress what most gently and honestly lies within you.
If you can ride these waves, they will eventually even out and the storm will pass. Your thinking and your feelings will be clearer and will guide you on the path that is meant for you, and you alone.
Peace

So so true! I agree wholeheartedly and, would like to add that if you are still have them, suitors may also see the signs and know that you are not ready to move on. Then again, I'm no doctor

Allow yourself a little relapse now and then as part of the healing process. Its part of being human and shows you cared which is good.
Activity helos ... be busy busy busy ... make plans , see friends and one day the hurt will seem less. One day you will be able to look back without the pain.
Good luck and stay positive

Amen, Stay busy as my friend just said, and allow for those times when you know you arte going to be most vulnerable, in the beginning keep friends on stand by, so you don't undo all your hard work. Pamper yourself, goes for guy as well.One last thing, keep a list handy at all times, to remind you why they are ex's.
Good Luck,
Hugs all around!

Here's a way i would handle a relapse. i would just sit down and cry. Yes for real!! But the relapses get easier as time goes on. I still sometimes, get a hurt feeling for my exwife, recently i found some wedding pictures, oh my gosh, yep, that hurt..But then, i realized, i had to get away from that terrible alcoholic and presciption pill abuser, she was hatefull to her family and mine and me and the neighnors, but i can really look in the mirror and say, i did my best....Earl

It doesnt have to be that way. just focus on the here and now that you are broke up and going on with your life. it will be easier if your mental outlook is in the present and not the past.
