How to handle friends after the breakup
Submitted by Lisa Steadman on November 2, 2009 - 12:07 pm
Do you and your ex share friends?
Moving on can be trickier if you do. The key is to ask yourself, is staying connected to your shared social circle HELPING or HURTING? If it’s hurting, you MUST disconnect. It may not feel fair that your ex gets to keep your friends, but this may be the opportunity you need to reinvent your social life.
So how can you heal and move on without your social circle? Start recreating a new and improved social circle, complete with supportive friends who care about YOUR needs and don’t give your ex a second thought.
Stumped for how to meet new people? Join a club, group, or activity you already enjoy. Volunteer for a cause you care about. Enroll in a class that strikes your interest.
They goal is to get out there and have fun!
