Ending relationships- How do you deal?

Tweet

I recently ended a long-term relationship due to unreconcilable differences and at first had a VERY hard time with it. But now that time has gone by and although my love for that other person hasn't faded at all- it's easier now facing the love I still have for them but being okay with being apart- and understanding that our differences may never be understood by one another. I was wondering how my mylot fam deals with ending relationships, romantic or monogomous alike? Do you try to keep youself busy with extra hobbies and extra curricular activities? Or do you stow away to yourself until your ready to face the world? If it was a romantic relationship- are you able to be friends with your ex after all is said and done?
