The Stages of a Break-up: My Method (Almost Ready to be Happy)

          Yes, there is a small stage between Sadness and Happiness. Often times, it is the most over looked stage. You think, I'm over them, no big deal, but it's important to note that you may not be fully healed. This is the point where you could give that one last message and open up a line of conversation, drawing you back in. How can you avoid this?

My Experience:

        At this point, I'm not feeling as entirely sad as I was, but I'm also not happy. I know this could go one of two ways. I'll contact her again and we could end up back where we were or I could put on that good ol' playlist and get going with my life. This is a moment of desperation, so with understanding that you may not be as happy as you think you are, you can avoid danger.

My Method:

    Make a playlist that is in-between sad and happy. Music that acknowledges a loss, but that you will move on from.
