Why breakups are so hard and the most recent celebs who have gone through the process.
Breakups are usually one of the toughest things you can face as a human being. Once you get used to having someone in your life, being a ‘we’, and an ‘us’, it is very difficult to get back to being an ‘I’ and a ‘me’. Sometimes though, it just can’t be helped because otherwise you continue to live your romantic life feeling unhappy and unfulfilled.
Recent celebrity breakups and why they happened.
We’ve recently seen celebrity couples go through the breakup challenge. Such as that of Jason Momoa and his wife of more than 4 years. They announced that they felt the changes that were happening and that they had grown apart. When we see that celebrity couples also deal with these challenges, it reminds us that nobody is exempt from the hurdles that can come from relationships. Humans aren’t always equipped to know how to deal with relationship challenges effectively.
Another couple who have recently split are Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott. Jenner and Scott have been known to have a very on/off relationship and with children involved this brings an added challenge. Could relationship coaching have helped these celebs? We believe so as humans don’t always have the skills necessary to know how to navigate a relationship in the most effective way. Also with on/off relationships, often people know they should have ended the relationship completely the first time round. Finding the strength and knowledge to do this though can be tough. Relationship coaching can also help with understanding when a relationship has reached it’s end and sometimes this can be the hardest part.
Sometimes when you are experiencing a breakup, it really can feel like the end of the world. It can feel like you’ll never be happy without that person. It is quite common to go through stages like, denial, bargaining and struggling with low moods and a lack of motivation.
Top tips for when you are going through a breakup.
Firstly, be kind to yourself and allow yourself some time to sit with the sadness. You are grieving the loss of someone who has been a part of your life. You are also grieving the loss of the plans you may have made for the future. It isn’t something you can expect yourself to just get up and carry on about as if nothing has happened.
Remind yourself of the bad times too, not just the good times. You will likely be looking at the nice photos and memories. Maybe you are thinking about all the things you did badly or wrong. It will feel incredibly challenging to balance those thoughts by being fair to yourself right now. Remind yourself that they weren’t perfect and they had a part to play in it all ending.
Talking to someone in a safe space can be very helpful in gaining some clarity over the end of the relationship. A professional can help you through each stage of the process and get you to that place of acceptance and hope. Book your FREE telephone consultation here.
