I was dumped yesterday from a long term partner and I’m looking for some advise as to how other people have dealt with it. Should I just get straight on tinder to find someone to hook up with, has that helped anyone? I’m hurting quite a lot at the moment 🤦🏼‍♂️

Stay off dating sites. It isn’t fair on the person you’ll potentially meet up with if you are still not over your previous relationship.

Go do things. Don’t stay at home and feel sorry for yourself. There is a whole world out there - go for a trip, go see friends, learn a language, take up a new hobby etc. This will help take your mind off your relationship.

Years ago I went through a failed relationship - I spent a few years on self improvement, got a better job and got my life together. Made a whole lot of new friends and travelled. It was well worth it and I’m both a better, stronger person now and have picked up a bunch of new skills. I own a house and have a lovely partner who loves me for who I am.

There is always a better future for yourself if you put some work into it.

Time.

Get some fresh air, go and buy those bits and pieces you planned to, get out and about. Meet mates for a coffee, beer garden, etc, and chill out but with company to distract you for at leats a wee while. Gets better each day, in 2 or 3 months, you will be fine
