Overview
From your answers, your ex has moved into the past. A song or a photo might bring back a memory, but it doesn't knock you off course for the day. You're not checking their profile, not rehearsing old arguments and not waiting for a message.
Just as importantly, your own life has filled back up. You have plans you're looking forward to, routines that are yours, and people around you. Being over someone isn't only about feeling nothing for them. It's about having somewhere good to be.
That doesn't mean you'll never feel a twinge. Anniversaries and unexpected news can still sting for a moment. The difference is that it passes, and you get on with your day.
- Peaceful
- Forward-looking
- Steady
- Open
What's going well
Neutral, not numb
You can hear their name without your stomach dropping. That calm is real, not something you're forcing.
A life of your own
Your plans, friendships and routines don't revolve around the gap they left. You've built something new in its place.
Lessons learned
You can look back at what went wrong, and what went right, without blaming yourself or them for everything.
Open to what's next
Whether or not you're dating, you're not closed off. If someone good comes along, you'd be ready.
Worth watching
Old patterns
Being over a person isn't the same as being over a pattern. You might still drift toward the same type.
Try this: Write down two things you'd want to be different next time.
Surprise waves
A wedding invite or a mutual friend's news can bring a brief wave of feeling that catches you off guard.
Try this: Let it pass without judging yourself. A moment of feeling isn't a relapse.
Rushing to prove it
Some people show they're over someone by jumping into something new before they really want to.
Try this: Date because you want to, not to make a point.
Dating and friends
Are you ready to date?
Yes, if you want to. You're open without being desperate, and you're not looking for someone to fill a hole. Go into new dates curious rather than comparing, and you'll enjoy them a lot more.
Leaning on friends
Your friends have probably noticed you're back to yourself. It's a good time to thank the ones who saw you through the hard part, and to be that person for someone else who's going through a breakup.
Good days and hard days
