which do you think is more effective when moving on: distracting yourself with different activities, or sitting with your emotions and crying until you don’t feel like crying anymore?

you might answer both, should i do both at the same time or one after another?

I think finding new things to do and maybe new friends but not to just distract you.

When we cry it out and feel so bad it does not help as we only remember the good not the bad of the relationship.  maybe instead of the crying we can reflect and recognize where things went wrong. That spurs us to move on.
