Things to Avoid After a Break Up

I had a horrible break up just over two years ago and I have indeed had to avoid a few things. It may seem silly, but certain things just pull my heart strings like nothing else. Others may not understand because they did not share those things with someone who broke their heart. Make no mistake, a bad break up does mean that you have suffered a broken heart. Normal break ups do not hurt. Bad break ups leave you in a fog that can not be lifted. I think it is different for the other person in the break up. One of you will be left in a state of not being able to eat certain foods or listen to certain songs. These are just a couple of things I have had to avoid. I also can not go to certain places that we liked to go together.

In my situation I can not eat Kit-Kat candy bars, because that was one of our favorite snacks. His favorite meal was grilled chicken brown rice and green beans. I have not been able to cook that meal since we broke up. I can have grilled chicken, but not with brown rice and green beans. I can have green beans, but not with grilled chicken and brown rice. It does sound silly but I have found that I have to play little games like that with myself to avoid the sudden stab in my heart as a reminder that he is no longer in my life. If you have suffered a broken heart it may not sound as silly to you as it does to someone who made it out of a relationship free and clear of hurt.

Songs are another raw subject. Most people establish a song to call their own early in a new relationship. That will quickly become your favorite song. You will tun it up as loud as you can when it comes on. If you are like me you will go and buy the CD to have handy in the car or at home to listen to to make you happy. After a bad break up ma people have to avoid that song like the plague. Other songs will pop up here and their and pull memories from you heart that you would be better off not remembering. Songs hat you made love to, songs that the both of really liked allot together. In my case I have had to avoid the entire country genre.

The places you liked to go together will also bring back memories that are better left hidden deep in your mind. We really liked to go to the fast food joint Sonic. I have not been able to go there since we broke up. Even though I like the food there I have to stay away. We would kiss and tell each other how much we loved each other while we listened to the oldies that were being played over the intercom. It never failed that after we had bite to eat and we had kissed for over an hour that we would end up back at home making love to one another. Those kind of memories are dangerous for me.Things to avoid are very personal and very real to each individual. I cannot say for sure if these things will always be off limits, but for now they are and my advise fo any one suffering a broken heart is to listen to what hurts and avoid them at all costs.
