First and foremost, you must do this: Have an evening at home just to cry, vent, scream, burn his clothes, and so on. Ask a good friend to come over for support, so that you can move forward.

2. Make a list of all of his bad points

Stop visiting places that you frequented as a couple, and avoid places where he or his friends are likely to be.

Delete his number and all social networking connections (including his friends). Having one too many drinks and reaching for the phone never results in a happy ending.

7. Laugh
