Explain your situation first

Can't go in much details, but the reason is she don't feel the same connect/vibe anymore. Don't feel like talking to me.

After 7 years? That's tough, friend. Take care!

Been there with a similar reason, my relationship was 3.5 years long. Somebody else on GV had asked the same question, and I'm gonna give you the same answer I gave them.

Start working out. I used to work out almost 2 hours every day when I had the breakup. I don't advice on going on for that long, but try to work out for 30-60 minutes 3-5 days a week. You get a better hold on your emotions, it helps improve sleep, provides immunity over your shit feelings for a good few hours every day. You eventually get into better shape as a added benefit.

Feel better, take care :)

How long it took you to get over it

A couple of months, if I remember correctly. Diligently stuck to my routine of workouts, plus a change of environment along with a total isolation from my ex helped.

Go lift, soldier

+1 to this. Lift like it's the last day of your life. Alternatively, you can run. But you have to run like you're a demon possessed.

Lift weights and find a new girl on Hinge.

One advice is to not jump to dating arena right away. Now that you have more time for yourself, try out new places, discover yourself, catchup with friends/family you haven't been in touch for some time.

Once you feel at ease, try to figure out what went wrong, what you learnt. People come in our lives as lessons. It's important to learn from those lessons. All the best!

Step 0 is always love thyself!

Bro if your heartbreak lasted 7 years, you don't need advice, you need therapy.

Another relationship won't fix your existing heart break. Give yourself some time and learn new things about you. Develop new hobbies by trying out things you never did. But most importantly, work on yourself. Wake up early and hit the gym, read a book.
And at the end of the day, retrospect your day, what you felt the whole day, why you felt something, how better you could have handled something emotionally. This way you'll improve both physically and mentally.
Heart breaks are not easy and there's no short cut to skip the overwhelming emotions. You just gotta give it some time.

Pack your bags, and go away to someplace. Preferably seaside over mountains. Spend a week or 2 there. Even 3-5 nights will do you good. Solo travel will help you move on faster than you would like to believe

Don't date until you have recovered from heart break first. Spend time with friends, get some hobbies, be productive in work and life, exercise and diet control.
