This includes phone numbers, chat logs, and emails. It might hurt you to do this, but leaving yourself the option to call your ex in emotionally weak moments can be indicative of dependent behavior. It may also be wise for you to block your ex's number/email, to prevent any unwanted surprise contact. Discard all of the special items that remind you of this person. Get rid of the things that remind you of your love. Some articles that can make a breakup especially difficult: clothing, jewelry, photographs, and gifts. You don't have to throw everything away, but you may need time away from these items before you can fully move on. Why not box up any items that remind you of your ex and put them somewhere out of sight and mind? When your anniversary rolls around, or when there's a holiday that reminds you of your ex, make plans with other friends to take your mind off times you shared with your one-time lover. Did you and your ex watch movies every Monday? Call up a friend and make sure you have replacement plans for Monday night while you readjust to single life. Organize a party, outing, or dinner among friends to fill a lonely night with laughter and good times. Make special days based on your own parameters rather than those of someone else. Seeing your ex gallivant around with someone new might make your heart ache and complicate moving on. Even if you have hopes of maintaining a friendship with this person down the road, understand that you may need time and space before you allow your ex back into your life. Some people find writing a goodbye letter, where you can summarize all your feelings and the hopes you had for the relationship, to be a useful tool to aid the healing process. You don't have to show them the letter, but the simple act of writing your feelings down on paper can bring you the closure you need. Another technique you may find beneficial is confessing your feelings to this person in your head. The simple act of releasing bottled emotions can speed up the healing process.

Q: Contact your friend as soon as you decide to cancel. The more notice you can provide them, the better. This will allow them more time to readjust their schedule. This is especially true for last-minute cancellations. Getting in touch with them as soon as you can is the best course of action. In some cases, it's a good idea to give a friend a heads up even if there's only a chance you'll have to cancel. This will allow them to make a back-up plan if necessary. Reaching out directly indicates that you don't take cancelling lightly. Calling also makes it easier to gauge your friend's emotions, which will help you determine how to respond. If they don't answer, leave a message and follow up with a text or email. When cancelling plans well in advance, emailing or texting can be appropriate, especially in more professional contexts. Try to put yourself in the other person's shoes and use your best judgment when deciding how to contact them. Avoid texting simply because it's easiest for you. . Recognize that someone has made plans for you and you may be wasting their time. Take a moment to consider how upset they're likely to be based on the circumstances. Friends are likely to be more upset if they spent significant time or effort on these plans. It's also easier to forgive a close friend than an acquaintance. If you think they may be very upset with you, make sure to acknowledge the impact of your actions and express remorse clearly. Apologizing repeatedly may sometimes be necessary, but the initial contact is often your best opportunity to apologize effectively. If you're nervous, it can be helpful to plan an apology in advance. If it's a less important activity, you should still apologize but often something like a simple, "Sorry, can't make it this time!" will suffice. You'll want to mention why you have to cancel your plans. But avoid giving the impression that a new opportunity is more appealing than spending time with your friend. Don't try to come up with a long, contrived excuse. Friends can often tell when someone's not being honest, so tell the truth whenever possible. If you feel the need to lie, try to make it realistic. Avoid getting other people caught up in your lie. Discussing the other person's feelings can resolve potential rifts in your relationship. Be ready and willing to hear them out. Make a sincere attempt to understand how you've made them feel. When cancelling plans, many people tend to be overly self-deprecating, or go on about how busy they are. Try to avoid putting yourself at the center of the conversation. Remember that a good apology is about the other person. If your friend has already spent money on your plans, it's a nice gesture to pay for these expenses. They may be wasting a ticket to an event or have already bought supplies that they now don't need. Offering to cover these costs will help make up for inconveniencing them. If you're leaving your friend with extra tickets, you might offer to take on the burden of finding someone else to buy them.
A: Let them know immediately. Consider calling on the phone. Apologize sincerely Provide an excuse. Empathize with their emotions. Avoid making the conversation all about you. Reimburse your friend for any costs they are incurring.

Article: Glue based dent pullers use traditional glue guns to heat the glue before applying it to the vehicle. You will need to plug the gun in a few minutes before you start in order to heat the gun up enough to melt the glue. Be sure to use an extension cord that can reach the vehicle for the glue gun. You will need to re-wax the vehicle after using this method. Using a glue based dent remover kit purchased from an auto parts store, choose the tab that best fits the dent you are trying to pull. Usually, you want to use a tab that fits entirely within the dent so it pulls directly from the center point. Follow the directions in your dent pulling kit so help you determine which tab is right for your application. Apply a dab of hot glue to the tab of your choice, then quickly place the tab, glue side down, in the center of the dent. Hold the tab in place for a moment to allow the glue to set. It's okay if some of the glue squeezes out the sides of the tab when you apply it. Hold the tab in place until the glue dries enough to hold itself up. Slide the pulling mechanism bracket over the tab with the two posts on either side of the dent. If the kit came with multiple brackets, ensure you use one that is longer than the diameter of the dent so the posts are at least a half inch from the start of the dent on either side. The posts need to be outside the dent in order to pull the dent out. If the bracket is not wider than the dent, this method will not work for you. Place the knob on the end of the tab that's glued to the center of the dent. Turn the knob clockwise to tighten it, drawing the glued tab toward the bracket and pulling the metal with it. Continue to turn the knob until the dent pops out. The glue may give way as you turn the knob. If this occurs, remove the old glue and begin the process again. You may need to repeat this method on more than one spot to remove the entire dent. Peel any loose glue off with your fingers, then use rubbing alcohol to help remove any glue or residue remaining. This will likely remove the wax, and possibly even the clear coat from your paint, so be sure to apply a fresh coat of wax as soon as possible. The glue and the alcohol are both harsh on paint, so be sure to wash and wax the vehicle after using them.
