Make sure you don’t contaminate your new relationships by dragging unwanted baggage into them. If you don’t reach emotional closure with your previous boyfirend or girlfriend, you’re going to let that person continue to control you in your furture relationships–control you in every relationship you will ever have. If that is not an incentive to motivate you to want to be free, I don’t know what is.

Don’t make new relationships pay for the sins and transgressions of those that came before them.

After you’ve been hurt and you make the decision to forgive, aim for the “I’m out of here” response–that is, do the very least that you have to do in order to get emotional closure.

Is it fair that you got put into an emotional prison by the person who hurt you? No. Is it easy to get out of it? No. Is it worth it? Yes–because you are worth it.

Will you continue to carry the burden of being wronged by someone else, or will you break out of your personal prison and reclaim your place in the world of happy people?

Anger is a fact of life. It is an emotion that should not be stifled. If you have been wronged, you should feel wronged and you should say so. It’s important that you correct someone who needs correcting. But then it’s important to do one other thing: to let the anger go.
