Breakups are hard enough to deal with, but a holiday breakup has got to be the worst. As if you don't feel bad enough, now you're going to have to explain to Aunt Winifred and Uncle Charlie why you're by yourself.
Worse is that you all you really want is to be back with your ex. If this is you, here are some tips to help you navigate the next few weeks. They'll help you get back on your feet again, and they might even help you win your ex back, if that's what you really want.
Before you go any further, you need to understand something. No matter how sad or lonely you're feeling right now, you're never going to feel better if all you do is sit around feeling sorry for yourself. You're going to have to start focusing on something besides the relationship. That might be hard at first, but you'll be surprised at how much better you feel once you change your attitude.
Think of this as a time to focus on yourself for a change. You've probably had less time to spend with friends than you use to. Now is your chance to reconnect. This doesn't mean going on and on about the breakup. It means going out and having fun. You need to relax, be with people who care about you, and just forget about the past for now.
What about your appearance? Are you happy with it? It could be time to try a new hairstyle. Why not spend the day trying on new outfits. Update your wardrobe a little. Don't do it to try to win your ex back... this is the time to do it for YOU.
But don't stop there. Think of something you've always wanted to do. It could be traveling to Germany, or taking tae kwon do classes. Maybe you've wanted to learn how to rock climb. Now's your chance to do something about it.
It's just a matter of believing you can do it and taking that first small step. Call and get more information about the trip you want to take. Find out how you can learn that new sport, instrument or whatever it is you want to do. Sign yourself up and get started - this week!
You'll feel so much better, because you'll be spending your energy on something positive. Once you start moving towards that goal, you'll find yourself waking up a little more excited each morning. You'll feel better about the future - and about yourself. And you'll have something fun to talk about with everyone over Christmas dinner!
So stop feeling sorry for yourself. Focus on something positive - something that's important to you that gets you excited. You'll be happier, which will make you more attractive... to your ex and everyone else. - 15784

These are just some of the things that helped me survive my breakup last year. I got my ex-boyfriend back, but I didn't figure it out on my own. I had help from T.W. Jackson at www.BringMyExBack.com. There's even a free video on how you can get your ex back too!
