Lailah Gifty AkitaDo not dwell on your loss. Look forward with bright new hopes.
About This Quote
When you get dumped, rather than dwelling on your loss, look forward with bright new hopes. According to the research of Dr. John Gottman, couples who can sustain a period of positive contact (positive interactions such as eye contact, sharing of interests and activities) while maintaining a period of negative interaction (verbal and non-verbal conflict) will often stay together. But if they can't maintain the positive touch and also manage to avoid the negative interactions, they'll likely break up.
