Deep dives
Moving On from a Ghosting Situation
If you've been ghosted, it can be difficult to move on. One suggestion is to focus on yourself and your own well-being. Take the opportunity to do things that make you happy, spend time with loved ones, and invest in your own personal growth. It's important to remember that someone else's actions are not a reflection of your worth. Surround yourself with positivity and try to let go of any negativity or resentment. Ultimately, it's about finding closure within yourself and embracing the possibilities that lie ahead.
Dealing with Leftover Items from a Breakup
When it comes to leftover items from a past relationship, it's important to assess what's best for you. Consider whether keeping those items brings you any joy or if they serve as a constant reminder of the past. If the items hold no sentimental value, it may be time to let go. You could choose to donate or sell them, offer them back to your ex, or even dispose of them if you feel it's necessary for closure. Ultimately, the goal is to create a space that feels positive and allows you to move forward.
