How do you stop getting sad when you think about your ex

Hello I was wondering how do you stop feeling upset about your ex who has talked behind your back all the time and made you look like the bad person

Logically, you always will, it was negative.

It often needs treated like loosing a baby tooth imo, you just have to poke around and loosen it up over time, get used to it and the diminishing amount of pain it causes you, then one day you'll pop it out and wonder what you were ever so squeamish about and took back the whole thing as a growth experience.

Get angry. It’s personal to you but think about all the bad **** they did like never helping with chores, texting other girls/boys constantly, hiding their phone, sneaking around behind your back, not coming home when they say they will, all the times they lied, all the times they used you and were ungrateful etc etc. Allow yourself time to be sad and angry. It’s grief.

Forgive. Eventually the sadness with fade away and you should replace the anger with forgiveness. Learn from the mistakes and focus on being the best version of you. When someone else comes along, and they will, you’ll be grateful for what you’ve learnt and ready to give again.
