Set boundaries with your ex to aid in the healing process from "summary" of The Breakup Bible by Rachel Sussman
When you're going through a breakup, it's essential to establish clear boundaries with your ex. This will not only help you to heal and move on but also prevent any unnecessary confusion or pain. Setting boundaries means defining what is and isn't acceptable in terms of communication, interactions, and overall contact. One way to do this is by limiting your communication with your ex. While it may be tempting to stay in touch, especially if you were close, it's crucial to give yourself the space you need to heal. This might mean agreeing to only communicate about practical matters, such as logistics or shared responsibilities, and avoiding more personal or emotional conversations.
It's also important to avoid spending time together, at least in the immediate aftermath of the breakup. This can be challenging, especially if you share mutual friends or have commitments that require you to see each other. In these cases, it's a good idea to set clear boundaries about how you will interact and to minimize any unnecessary contact.
Additionally, it's essential to establish boundaries around social media and other forms of digital communication. This might mean unfollowing or unfriending your ex on social media platforms, or setting strict privacy settings to limit their access to your personal information. It's also a good idea to avoid stalking their profiles or engaging in any form of cyberstalking, as this can prolong the healing process and prevent you from moving on.
By setting boundaries with your ex, you are not only protecting yourself but also giving yourself the opportunity to heal and grow from the breakup. It's a way of taking control of your own healing process and ensuring that you prioritize your own well-being above all else. Remember, it's okay to put yourself first and to do what you need to do to move on in a healthy and positive way.
