Sometimes dealing with a break up is difficult. It's rarely easy unless you're so glad to get out of a situation that you can't wait to make changes and move on. A break up disrupts your whole life. Everything you do and see seems to remind you of your ex. If you had many mutual friends, even going out to keep from going stir crazy can be difficult.

One of the biggest hurdles you have to face when dealing with a break up is your family and friends. If your ex was popular with your family, you're going to get tired of questions about the situation. You must explain to them that you're dealing with a break up and moving on, the break up is over, and that you don't appreciate constantly being reminded of your ex and the past relationship.

Occasionally dealing with a break up can be difficult for your family, since they keep on talking about your ex in high hopes that you will get back together. Just tell them straight, "I'm moving on, the relationship is over, and that's that".

Over time they will learn to accept your decision because they love you and want to see you happy. It may be harder to convince your friends to let go.

It can be a bit easier if you don't have any friends in common. If you share the same circle of friends, your breakup can be strange for your friends. It will be even more difficult to deal with a break when your ex wants to be with them.

You can even collide when around the same friends. A breakup with your mate does not mean you should have to breakup with your friends also. Maintaining certain friendships may be difficult after you break up.

As hard as it may be, when you are dealing with a break up and are ready to move on, you may have to end some of those mutual friendships. You and your ex may have to come to an agreement to only hang out will some of those friends.

Simply keep close to your best friends and let your ex lover do likewise. Though doing this can be painful it will make things easier on everyone involved. If you're in the midst of a break up, that's important.
