Eliminating words about the past

Many people ask questions about a person's condition, but this will only bring back painful memories.

If a person does not talk about the past, it is better not to get into it with questions and consolations. It is better not to touch on painful topics, but to talk about the future, for example, about career and studies. You can offer your friend a new activity.

Increase self-esteem

When a person is dumped, his self-esteem drops sharply. That is why it is important to tell a friend more compliments and words of praise at such moments. The main thing is that the speech is sincere - then the person will feel important and significant again.

By following these tips, you can help your loved one get over a bad relationship.
