    In the old days, after a breakup, the well-to-do would send the teenager on a European Adventure to clear their head. They would come back with a new outlook on life and be ready for new beginnings!

    Instead of lamenting, do look forward to travelling abroad. And when you’re there, stay in the moment and appreciate every minute of it.

    It’s normal for your high school and college friends to be just that ~ left in high school and college. When you get home, you will make friends of all ages at your new job, in your new neighborhood, from the gym, at your place of worship. And remember Meet Up groups exist now! Make a list of all your interests and go on local Meet Ups. Then, when you are in a relationship, their friends become your friends.

    It will be OK.

    I have been in a similar situation recently. And yes, just like you i was focusing on myself. It was hard to keep a positive mind when the memories keep knocking on the back door of head. Still, i tried hard to be positive and it worked many a times. Things were worse and I didn’t know what to do with my future as my vision about future was really blurry.

    I decided to take a trip to Russia. I always wanted to explore that country and off course it was a first foreign trip so it was supposed to be exciting affair. Again just like you, I was not feeling that much excited about that trip. It was my decision to make that trip happen and everyone from my family was excited except me. I really didnt plan what would I do there, the places to visit and what can i get our of this trip. Anyway i went ahead and traveled to Russia.

    It took me just few hours to get out of the fame optimism and feel the real positive attitude. It was a fascinating experience. I met great people. Had some great funny incidents and met many other girls. And most important, every moment I was developing the vision of my future. I made many good friends there so didn’t hesitate to include them in my future vision. I drew a completely different life what i have every imagined to live.

    So, focus on this trip. You are going to meet a very different culture and a life. Enjoy what you have and let it go what happened in the past.

    All The Best!

    Thank you both for your replies. I just hate knowing that there’s barely anything/anyone to come back to. Your feedback has helped though – thank you for helping me believe it will be ok.
