One of the things that you have to keep in mind when you are trying to get over an ex girlfriend is that it can get better with time if you have the right mindset about things and you don't just sit at home and act depressed about the way that things turned out. Now, I know very well that it is easier to say that things get better than it is to believe it when you are heartbroken, but you do have to remember that there are lots of other women out there and even though you may have lost one, that does not mean that you can't find another.

Here are some things that you can do to make things better if you are trying to get over an ex girlfriend:

1) Remember the bad times with her so that you don't end up thinking it was perfect being in a relationship with her.

It's next to impossible to get over someone if you remember them as being perfect and you remember being with them as being perfect as well. As good as she might have been and as good as it may have been to have dated her, you know that there were some bad times or that there were some complaints that you had about her. Remember those because you don't want to revise things so that she comes off as being the perfect woman for you because you will not find it easy to get over your ex girlfriend if you see her in that light.

2) Play the field for a bit just so that you can distract yourself.

Some will say that this is the "wrong" thing to do, but I don't think so. It can be healthy to play the field a bit and get yourself back in the swing of meeting new women. You may still think about your ex girlfriend, but you'll definitely also see that there are lots of women that you could have some fun dating as well.

3) Keep yourself busy with activities that take your mind off of your ex girlfriend.

Anything that you have fun doing that takes your mind off of your ex girlfriend is a good thing and you should do those things right now if you are trying to get over her. There is no sense in just sitting around and feeling sorry for yourself, you might as well have some fun and do things that keep you from thinking about her right now.
