Sad break up but dealing with it in an unusual way

A short relationship has finished but I'm thinking about him a lot, he's now dating again. He did finish it then two weeks late messaged to say he was really missing me, I didn't go back tho. By chance I bought a pink pig squeaky toy from Lidl recently for my granddaughter as it made us laugh. Every time I think of him and his new person I squeeze the pig and it makes me laugh 😁 What's helped you get over your ex

I'm full of a cough and cold so feeling a bit sorry for myself, it's just cheered me up squeezing the pig. I wasn't with him long but he made a big impression on me and I can't believe how fast he's moved on.

Thank you, that was my thread, there's certainly plenty of reasons to be cheerful, just wish the lurgy would do one x
