Lessons to learn from your last relationship

Breaking up is a seriously miserable business. It can be a private hell and you can find it difficult to find a way out of the torture chamber. But, as the cliche goes, every cloud has a silver lining. Each relationship in your life can teach you valuable lessons, so that you don't just fall in love, but rise from the ashes as well. Therefore, if you have just gone through a breakup, here's how you can treat it as a life lesson.

Nobody is perfect
Of course, how you react to the breakup depends on circumstances that have led to the split. It also depends on whether you have parted ways bitterly or amicably. Whatever the case may be, it must make you realize that if you are chasing perfection, you might not ever get it. So take this opportunity to re-evaluate what you expect from a relationship.

Be you
You have a life of your own. You have your own responsibilities to shoulder. Besides, you have your own career goals to achieve. So those cannot be put on hold just because you once had committed to someone.

Peace of mind
Uncoupling can deprive you of many things that made you feel happy and good about yourself. But getting out of a messy or a direction-less relationship can give you peace of mind. If you find yourself out of an unhealthy or a toxic relationship, regard it as a lucky escape from prison. Now is the time to enjoy freedom!
 

Ties that matter
No matter how deeply you love someone, excluding others from your life doesn't make any sense. So the lesson is, never neglect your relationships with other people who matter in your life. Your equations with them shouldn't change just because you're in love.

A better tomorrow
Sometimes dreams can crash and all the pleasures that a romantic life promises can be snatched from you. Yet you shouldn't give up hope – there may be someone out there who's a better fit in your life. Patience and hope can help you get a better deal sooner or later.
