So you've spent countless nights partying all night long and drowning yourself in alcohol. Maybe you've jumped from dating one person to another in the hopes of forgetting that person who broke your heart. Or how about crying your heart out when you come across anything that reminded you of that failed relationship? If you've tried all this and nothing seems to be helping you get over your heartache, then maybe it is time for you to pack your bags and see a new place.
Try forgetting about the loved one you lost by traveling. When you travel you will experience new things, things you don't normally see back home. That should be enough to keep your mind off your aching heart. If there are any places at all that you've wanted to visit but haven't had the chance to then now would be the best time to do it. Try out new things or maybe indulge yourself in the things that you love like taking awesome pictures of the place your visiting. So that' hitting two birds with one stone. You are ticking off a place from your list of places to visit and at the same time forgetting your heartache.
There are a few things to keep in mind though. First of all, do not bring your ex with you. You are taking this trip to forget him after all. So anything that reminds you of him, leave it back home. It might be better if you cut yourself off from the rest of the world. Well maybe have a person or two know where to contact you but only for emergencies.
Avoid any places that the two of you have visited together or are planning to visit together. You don't want to bring up any memories about that person.
You can go on a trip with a family member or close friends to keep you company. This will also help bring you and the people accompanying you closer. If you have not spent much time with someone close to you like your mom for example, then this would be the perfect chance to rekindle that relationship.
But you can also take the time to reflect on things, if that is more of your thing. Come to terms with the fact that you and that person aren't together anymore. You might have a lot of questions. You might be wondering where it went wrong or what you could have done about it. This doesn't mean though that you should spend your whole vacation moping in your hotel room. If you intend on doing just that then you might as well cancel the trip.
Last but not the least it is important for you to enjoy the trip. Check out tourist spots. Have fun with the locals and maybe make a friend or two. Open your mind to the different things the trip has to offer you. And who knows. You just might be able to find the person that will make you forget about your heartache. So what are you waiting for?
