5 Ways to Move On from a Past Situationship That Hurt You

Letting go of a situationship can be tough, especially when you invested your heart into something that didn’t turn into a full-fledged relationship. Here are five steps to help you move forward with grace and self-love.

1. Be Grateful for the Experience
Every relationship teaches us something valuable. Reflect on what you’ve learned from this situationship. Now you know the importance of investing your energy into someone who is as intentional as you are. Take this lesson forward into your future relationships.

2. Allow Yourself to Grieve
It’s okay to mourn the loss of what could have been. Give yourself permission to feel the sadness, frustration, and disappointment. The memories, hopes, and dreams you had are real, and it’s important to take time to heal from them.

3. Don’t Contact Them
Resist the urge to reach out. Make it a golden rule to not keep in touch with your exes. By doing so, you’re telling the universe that you’re ready to attract someone who truly deserves you. Creating this space allows the right partner to come into your life.

4. Pour Love into Yourself
Now is the time to focus on you. Engage in activities that make you feel good—whether it’s traveling, working out, diving into hobbies, or spending quality time with loved ones. Prioritize self-care and nurture your well-being.

5. Trust That the Right Person Is Out There
Believe that someone who is meant to find you is out there. Seek the support you need, whether through friends, family, or even dating apps—use them intentionally. And remember, never settle for anything less than C.R.A.Z.Y. love, where you can be Completely Real and Authentically Zenfully You!

Moving on isn’t easy, but these steps will help you heal and open your heart to the love you truly deserve. Listen to my podcast for more love and relationship insights.
