Once the different phases of breaking up with a partner have been passed, especially if it was a unilateral decision, some people are left with that bitter taste of not being able to forget someone who no longer belongs to them. Which, at times, can make it difficult for them to focus fully on themselves or when starting new relationships. And although the reality is that it is not possible to force yourself to forget, you can carry out a series of practices that help during this process.
What makes it difficult for a person to forget is not the memories themselves, but the emotional response that is experienced due to them, explains psychologist Rocío Penas. That is why it is essential how you treat yourself, “the way you talk to yourself” and how compassionate you are. Once you have accepted the grief for that person who does not correspond, it is time to implement some recommendations to overcome it.
If you want to move forward and forget once and for all that person who does not reciprocate your romantic feelings, you will adopt a series of strategies recommended by psychologist Rocío Penas.
