What NOT To Do After a Breakup or Divorce: 7 Helpful Tips![]() Human beings love routines. We prefer a safe and known environment, such as the city that we have been living in for years or the long term relationships that we have for years. These routines include not only daily life activities but also the people we chat, hang out, and spend most time with. Therefore you can imagine how challenging it is when we go through big life changes such as breaking up or having a divorce. Whether you want it or not, breaking up with a person you loved can turn your world upside down and cause so many different emotions in a short span of time.
