How did you get over your breakup?

It feels like I am drowning. I came home and they had taken everything of theirs out while I was at work. I want so desperately to talk to them, and now I have my final confirmation that it is dead and done. I wish they would just knock on the door. I need to accept that this is it but I just can't let that thought sink in or it will anchor me down for good.

Time. Cheesy as it sounds, time is going to help you a lot. Focusing on your own growth also helps a lot, and it will help you realize why you and your ex broke up. For me, it was us growing differently. What it will be for you is something only you can know.
The 60 day no contact rule is also helpful. No blocking, no stalking, no liking posts and no sending birthday texts until you are healed. When you feel like you don't feel the need for their validation, meaning you don't care if they reach out or not, that's when you can start reaching out to them again.

Hang in there!
