Get Over ANY Heartbreak (Once You Know the Type)

The gist

1. Pain over someone you never dated is really about lost hope and loneliness, not the person themselves, so treat it as a normal stepping stone.
2. On-and-off relationships work like a wager that the person will change, and the cycle of leaving and returning stops you from ever fully grieving.
3. After a serious breakup, Hussey says there is no quick fix, but actively building new memories and traditions helps reclaim your identity over time.
4. When a breakup is sudden, slow down rather than rushing to move on or win them back, and note that how they left reveals their character.
