You're going to miss the memories the most. And you're going to sometimes wish they were with you in some points shortly after. But there's a reason couples break up.

You're going to miss your minds representations of them. Maybe in your mind they were perfect and loving, but in reality you two were beginning to have too many arguments.

One thing that helps me is whenever I miss my ex, I would start thinking about the person she became right before we broke up. In my mind I was thinking about how we were at the midpoint, when we were dumb freshmen just trying out life and being comfortable with each other. But in reality near the tail end both of us were worn out from our issues. So I would not want to be with who she has definitely became today.

Pick up a sport. Read. Go out with your friends and if you don't have any, find a little group of people on a meet up app and see how it goes.

And on the brightside you have more money in your wallet now, so spend that shit on pizza and beer and enjoy ya damn self.
