Teens usually find it really hard to face the pain of a terrible breakup.
It can be doubly hard and painful if you were the one who got dumped.
Some teens may even feel that a breakup is the end of the world for them.
But this is definitely far from the truth - life is far from over.
Here are some helpful tips on how to cope with the pain of a breakup.
Step 1 - Do not blame yourself or anyone else.
You are not alone, breakups happen to almost anyone in the world.
It is just a normal part of being a teenager.
So if you feel vulnerable and rejected, it may help to think that you are not alone with your ordeal.
If others were able to hurdle the sad effects of a breakup, you too can move on with your life.
Step 2 - Accept the fact that you are single again.
You can not move on if you still fantasize about getting back with your ex.
Try to be happy being single again.
In fact, being single gives you more freedom.
You have the freedom to do what you want and go wherever you want to.
A cleansing ritual is also helpful.
You can throw away your old photos with your ex or delete his or her old emails.
Step 3 - Recall all the negative qualities of your ex.
If you are overwhelmed with loneliness and you feel tempted to contact or call your ex again, why not try to remind yourself of the bad qualities of your ex.
Remembering his or her flaws will help you get back on track to recovery.
Do these steps and in time, you can move on with your life as a happy single person.
Who knows, you will meet your perfect match sooner than you expected.
