"This Affair is Over

10. Fake it till you make it.
Keep your head held high. When you're feeling depressed
put a smile on your face. Look and act the part of a
confident, self-assured woman. Show your family, friends,
and your ex-lover that life is great! The more you portray
this image, the more you will become it.
None of these steps are easy, but they are necessary. You
will have good days and bad days. You may even experience
"withdrawal" symptoms. Make sure you have your family and
friends there for you, and keep busy. Should you slip and
see him or talk with him, acknowledge it as a mistake and
go on -don't be hard on yourself. When you learned to walk
as a baby, you didn't do it on the first try! You took baby
steps until you were balanced and confident enough to do it
on your own. The same principle applies here. Rejoice in
your small successes. With every passing day you will get
stronger.
We wish you well...
