Summary

I still remember every heartbreak I’ve ever had.

If I try I can still bring back the agony of those months after a relationship ended, wondering if I was ever going to feel better and get back to my normal self. When you’re feeling that pain of losing someone, food doesn’t taste good. TV shows depress you. Your favourite places feel cursed because they bring back bittersweet memories. Life feels like white noise, and your every waking moment goes back to that feeling of loss and pain.

We’ve all been there, right? But there is a secret to emotionally recovering from a breakup, one that is shockingly simple but so crucial that if you forget to do it, you will inadvertently DOUBLE the amount of time it takes to get over your ex. See, most of us make bad decisions in a breakup. We drink to numb the pain, we have one-night stands with people we don’t care about, or we eat ourselves into oblivion with junk food.

It sucks now, I know. But it will get better, trust me...

0:04.0	How many activities can I fill my day with?
0:06.0	How many friends can I invite over every single night so that I don't get lonely and I don't even have time to think about this person? Hey, everybody, Matthew Hussie here with the Love Life podcast.
0:35.5	Excited for you to hear the episode today. Let's get into it.
0:41.9	Hey guys, it's Matthew. I want to talk today about heartbreak. The really tough thing about
0:48.4	heartbreak is it's almost, I mean, obviously in order to feel heartbroken, in order to feel the pain of loss of
0:56.9	somebody, we have to keep going back there in our mind. There are certain times when we tend to go back
1:02.7	to that person in our mind more than others. So, for example, when we're not busy, our mind snaps
1:10.0	back into a memory of that person or the moment we feel we're not busy. Our mind snaps back into a memory of that person,
1:11.6	or the moment we feel we're not busy and therefore we're lonely,
1:15.6	we feel a sense of loss, and then we think of the person
1:17.6	who we wish we were with at that moment.
1:20.6	Or of course, when we're going to bed at night, when we're alone,
1:23.6	and we have time to think and process,
1:26.6	that again is a time when at the end of a night
1:30.6	we start thinking about that person it may also be a time when something good is happening
1:35.8	I mean that's the really scary part it can happen when you are experiencing a beautiful
1:41.1	scene when you're looking at nature when when you are on holiday, and you
1:46.1	think, God, I wish I was sharing this with that particular person. So sometimes we have the
1:52.5	association that when things are bad, that's when we'll get most, well, that's when we'll miss
1:57.5	someone the most. But actually, we often miss someone the most when things are good.
