5. Take up a new and exciting hobby
While it may be hard to see as of now, a silver lining after a breakup means having the time and opportunity to learn something new or take up a new and exciting hobby! You can channel your inner artist and take up cross-stitching or calligraphy art, or you can go rogue and try your hand out in adrenaline-rushing activities! Learn to shoot like a pro at the Stronghand shooting range, which could be a fitting choice if you’re feeling some rage… not that we’re saying that you’re raging… but just in case… in any case, it’s a great activity that can improve your hand-eye coordination, and it’s just really fun!

4. Drown yourself in wine
Then of course, there’s that alcohol option… because what is a breakup without alcohol? But class it up a bit and take your friends to Planet Grapes, with a great selection of wines even for the non-connoisseur. Sure it will make tongues wag a bit, and you might end up talking about your ex again… but your friends are there to provide moral support and to keep you in check.

3. Meet new people
Then again, there are those that swear on meeting new people– either to make the brokenhearted person realize that there are tons of fish in the sea, or just to get that breath of fresh air by talking to someone new. You can hit up a club, visit a bar, or heck– play board games at Dyce N Dyne, a board game cafe in Pasig City! There’s no wifi, and the places is decked with large tables, meaning you’re basically forced to mingle with other people you don’t know. Besides, there’s a whole lot more sincerity in interaction by playing over Cards Against Humanity versus trying to move against a crowd of sweaty bodies in a dark club.

2. Get a makeover
Remember Basha in One More Chance, where she got a new ‘do after breaking up with Popoy? Makeovers tend to be synonymous to breakups, and it’s most likely because it’s attached to starting over, signifying a brand new you. Plus, doesn’t it seem like a good time for a dramatic haircut? You can head over to Vivere Salon, and put your hands in the care of their experienced stylists. From striking dyes such as highlights or the ombre, to drastic haircuts such as cutting your hair about 10 inches long, they’ll make sure that this decision is not worth regretting. Moreover, here’s to that confidence boost by changing your hair! Go rock that new hairdo.

1. Go on a staycation
When you can’t go on a soul-searching journey while traveling, there’s the next best thing. A recent trend nowadays is the staycation, where you are pampered like royalty overnight at some of the best hotels in the metro. With its luxe interiors and cozy amenities, Seda BGC provides itself a worthy staycation getaway when traveling outside the metro is not an option. Seda also has an amazing roof deck, perfect for those nights when it’s just you and a glass of wine!
Breaking up is never easy. In fact, there’s no one way or quick way to move on from it, as time is still the best healer. Still, rather than mope around and sulk, it’s better to keep yourself productive and busy. After all, there’s no other way to move but forward!
