I have been on this site for 4 months now. detaching is hard. I t means you need to cut off worrying about their life, their activities and their issues. I tdoes not mean cutting off your feelings. I am going through it now and the opnly way for me to get it really started is to cut out everything, including feelings, for a time. Everytime you think of them, think of something else to do. everytime a thought of them pops in your head, think of something you should be doing. I t works.

rule of thumb: today, act as if they will never come back, love and live like they will be back tomorrow.
