Relationships are hard. But you know what's harder than that? Dealing with a break-up. Starting from begging your ex to come back to binging on ice-cream  to getting into a rebound a relationship--everyone has their own coping mechanism. And it's completely fine. After all, the main goal is to get over the loss and move on with your life.

But, as petty as it may sound, the other goal is to win the break-up. Yes, you may say that there's no such thing as losing or winning the break-up. But who are you kidding? And let us tell you, it is definitely not about getting back at your ex or even revenge, but about small mercies. Mercies that may make you happy and give you peace of mind. So how you do that? You see ladies, it isn't that easy, but here are seven ways by you which you can easily win that break-up.

Unfollow Or Unfriend Your Ex Before He Does

Having your ex on your timeline can screw up with your happiness. Just seeing them going out of town with friends on a trip can make you feel more miserable than you already are. So, it's always advisable to not be "friends"  with your ex on Facebook and other sites. However, if they remove you first, it can completely bruise your ego. How dare your ex block you when it was him who left you heartbroken? Isn't it like another breakup? So do it before your ex does. Trust us, it will give you enough peace to get off your bed and stop crying. Consider it as a race and now go win it!

Your Ex Dumped You? Dump That Dress He Gave You

Keeping anything that reminds you of your ex is the last thing you want after a bad break-up. And who are we kidding, every break-up is bad, no matter how amicable it may have been. Why? Because it hurts like a b*tch. So what should you right after you are dumped? You need to throw every single item that your ex ever gave you. Starting from that dried up rose in your diary to that shirt you once borrowed to wear to work--dump 'em all.

Change Your Wardrobe And Your Look. Thank Us Later

Ladies, when you look good, you feel good. Yes, sitting in your pajamas with dried up tears and caked kajal maybe the only thing you're left with after you have gotten your heart broken. But, if you just put some effort, get a haircut or maybe just colour it something funky, you'll instantly feel awesome.

Same with clothes. Buy something nice, but for yourself. Because all the love that you need is self love and not from that loser who broke up with you.

Join A Dating App--Even For The Sake Of It

Sign up for ever online dating website available to the mankind. Regardless of the app's negative rating and shoddy reviews, just do it. Wonder why we are saying it? Well, you see even if you are not ready to see people, it can help you distract. Maybe it can introduce you to a nice rebound guy. Who knows? It still feels validating to know that you can handle the thought of having to date (and subsequently, risk getting hurt) again.

Hangout With The Mutual Friends Like A Boss

Breakup can cost you a lot of things apart from your sanity--especially your mutual friends. If there is anything that could be considered a raw numerical score on post-breakup trajectory, it's who keeps the most mutual friends. Is this a sociopathic way of viewing other human beings? Yes. Are you allowed to be a sociopath for a bit after a breakup? Yes.

Refrain From Posting A Single Sad Status Or Song Online

Even if you are dying inside and have formed a kinship with Adele after your break-up, don't post any sad lyrics online. Let your ex be the one listening to a break-up playlist and letting the world know about it. Trust us, you're better than that.

If They Send You A Text After The Break-up, Just Ignore

This is the most difficult thing to do, we know that. After all, despite all the red flags and problems, you actually did love the person. But remember one thing: nothing good comes out of messaging your ex. True story.

So, what do you do when you ex drunk calls or messages you at 1 in the night? You ignore. And if you really want him to experience severe burn, just reply with either "lol" or "Who's this?"

It doesn't matter how mutual the breakup is or who broke up with whom or who started drama or who ended it. It's all about who is doing better afterward. No hard feelings!
