Does Love really come slow and ever go that fast? [I Dealing With Breakups]

If something special ended is it better to never forget that person and always stay in their lives, you know just keep their memories and photos and don’t change status or anything, let other people think that you still talk?
Or is better to completely let that person go and delete everything, change all status and updates and throw out old memories and not see or speak to them again?
I don’t agree with a rebound but is that the most logic option for a woman who doesn’t let go of love because it’s that hard to find easy?
And promiscuous? Is that healthy for a woman to become following a long term thing?

I guess it depends how it all ended? You can't erase or outrun the past, so there I don't think ignoring it or trying to bury all of it is a healthy idea. But, if it ended pretty badly then yes, keep the parts that were good and excise the parts that were bad.

As far as rebounds, you do you. I can say from my personal experience that when I broke up with a long term relationship I immediately tried to replace it with another one and that was a bad idea. It led to me not being able to really connect with someone new because I truly wasn't ready for it again. I found my way back by seeing people casually and for fun and that led to one becoming my next great relationship.

By casual I don't mean hook up city. :) It was more of a "do you want to go out and play some board games while getting a drink?" sort of deal. Seeing people to have fun and not screen them for a relationship (which is what I was doing before). :)
