Here's a hard truth; are you ready? There are parts of you that guarantee you will never get what you want most. Ever said something like, "Part of me is ready to move on from my ex, but part of me can’t stop obsessing about him or her," or “Part of me is ready for a great relationship, but part of me thinks I don't deserve it yet?” If so, it's because you actually have a lot of "Parts" inside you. Some that are designed to get you what you want most, and others that are designed to stop you from getting those things. You’ve got a myriad of Parts within you. Parts are like worker bees to your queen bee. Each Part works diligently for you, yet each one carries out a differing intention or belief of yours and thus they can be at odds with each other.

Because of all of the variables (different personalities, history, goals, timing, etc...), one-size-fits-all advice just can't apply to EVERY situation. However, I CAN say with confidence that, during/after a breakup, there IS a healthy code of conduct that should apply to everyone, regardless of their exact circumstances. The fact is, most people either don't know -- or choose to blatantly disregard -- this healthy code of conduct and instead plunge themselves into all kinds of self-destructive behaviors that end up prolonging their pain and preventing them from properly moving on. I say, why suffer any more than you absolutely have to? That's why I'm devoting today's blog to the topic of "10 Post-Breakup Decisions You're Sure to Regret." Hopefully, a breakup is NOT in your future (or present!). But let's face it -- it's pretty much an inevitable part of the process of dating.
In the aftermath ring of a breakup... who wins your heart or your ego???
Sometimes a breakup is just the bitchslap of reality your relationship needs!

This post is about how I feel about an ex...we broke up in September of 2008. We were still "friends" the past few months, but I broke it off with him, because it was delaying the healing process.
