#4. HOP ON THE SELF-IMPROVEMENT BANDWAGON
After a breakup, it’s tempting to go all Old School and get hammered every night, eat bread sandwiches for dinner and not change your boxers for a few days. A few days is acceptable, but resist the urge to continue the trend.
Instead, make yourself get your ass in gear. Make a list of things you’ve either A) wanted to do but haven’t done, or B) think would somehow benefit you and make you a happier, smarter dude. We can’t tell what those things are — maybe it’s improv, CrossFit, painting, dancing, learning to play guitar, losing weight. While you do that, date other people and bring them along. Why the hell not? It will take your mind off whatever’s going on and remind you that you’ve got some awesome things going for you. Who knows? You might even meet a chick.
