    At Some Point, Researching Your Ex Becomes Another Form of Contact.

    You haven’t texted them. You haven’t called them. You might even be months into no contact. But you still know where they went last weekend, who they followed, whether they’re seeing someone new and what their friends are posting. So… are you actually disconnected from them? In this episode, we’re talking about why we research our exes after a breakup, what we’re really hoping to find when we check, and why the hardest part of moving on might not be stopping yourself from looking, it might be learning to live with not knowing. Because eventually, healing means allowing their life to happen somewhere you can’t see it.  Want More Like This - https://stan.store/Loula  My Instagram - @move.with.lou Join Us on Patreon - ⁠patreon.com/ComingUpForAir⁠  YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@loula.comingupforair  No Contact Guide - https://v2.stan.store/Loula/p/30-day-no-contact-guide Support the show

    Why Can’t I Get Over My Ex? The Fear of Never Fully Moving On

    What if you never fully get over your ex? Maybe it's been months or years since the breakup. You're doing better, you've rebuilt parts of your life, but you still think about them, still miss them sometimes and wonder whether you'll ever completely move on. In this episode, I'm talking about why we can carry an ex with us long after a relationship ends, the fear of never loving someone the same way again and whether getting over someone really has to mean forgetting them. Because maybe moving on after heartbreak isn't making someone who once meant everything mean nothing. Maybe it's being able to remember them without needing to go backwards. 🤍   Want More Like This - https://stan.store/Loula  My Instagram - @move.with.lou Join Us on Patreon - ⁠patreon.com/ComingUpForAir⁠  Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@loula.comingupforair Support the show

    The Second Heartbreak: When You Realise They Might Never Come Back.

    Will my ex come back? It’s one of the hardest questions to stop asking after a breakup especially when you were the one who was left. But there’s another stage of heartbreak nobody really prepares you for: the moment you realise they might actually never come back. In this episode I talk about why losing hope can feel like a second breakup, why you can still want your ex to come back even when you know the relationship wasn’t right, and what happens when 'they haven’t come back yet' slowly becomes 'maybe this really is over.' We’ll get into waiting for an ex to change their mind, struggling to let go, dealing with rejection, wondering whether they regret leaving, and how to move forward without forcing yourself to believe you’ll never hear from them again. Because healing after a breakup isn’t about knowing for certain that your ex will never come back. It’s reaching the point where your life no longer depends on finding out whether they will.  Want More Like This - https://stan.store/Loula  My Instagram - @move.with.lou Join Us on Patreon - ⁠patreon.com/ComingUpForAir⁠  Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@loula.comingupforair Support the show

    Why Am I Still Mentally Talking to My Ex?

    You've stopped speaking to them, so why are you still having entire conversations with them in your head? In this episode, I talk about why we mentally talk to an ex after a breakup, replay conversations, imagine telling them things and wonder what they'd think of the life we're building without them. We get into wanting recognition rather than reconciliation, missing being witnessed by someone who knew your whole life, and what these imaginary conversations might actually be doing for you. If you're struggling to stop thinking about your ex and wondering whether you'll ever fully move on, this one's for you.  Want More Like This - https://stan.store/Loula  My Instagram - @move.with.lou Join Us on Patreon - ⁠patreon.com/ComingUpForAir⁠  Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@loula.comingupforair Support the show

    Your Relationship Is Secured. Now How Would You Live?

    If you’re single and scared you’ll never find love, I want you to imagine something: your future relationship is already secured. You don’t know who they are. You don’t know when you’ll meet. You just know you cannot miss them. How would you live differently if you weren’t constantly wondering when love was going to happen? In this episode, I am talking about being single in your 30s, dating anxiety, the fear of being alone, finding love later in life and the experiences we sometimes postpone until we have a partner. Then I’m changing the hypothetical completely: what if I told you that you wouldn’t meet them for another five years? Because this isn’t really an episode about how to find a relationship. It’s about what you might do with your life if you stopped requiring certainty about your romantic future before allowing yourself to fully live your present.

    Maybe Your Single Life Doesn’t Need to Look Impressive.

    If you’re single and quietly wondering whether you’re doing this stage of life 'right,' this episode is for you. There’s so much pressure to make single life look incredible the travelling, the career, the solo dates, the full social calendar, the constant proof that you’re thriving. But maybe your life doesn’t need to impress anyone. Maybe it just needs to feel like yours. In this episode, we talk about feeling behind while other people get married and have children, the fear of being single forever, loneliness, changing friendships, creating your own milestones and the ways we accidentally put life on hold while waiting to meet someone. This isn’t about convincing yourself that you don’t want love. You’re allowed to want a relationship and still build a life that feels meaningful now. Because your single years aren’t the waiting room for your real life.  Want More Like This - https://stan.store/Loula  My Instagram - @move.with.lou Join Us on Patreon - ⁠patreon.com/ComingUpForAir⁠  Youtube - https://youtu.be/uf90Uc_owUw  Support the show

    Single & Feeling Behind? What If I Never Meet Someone?

    Being single in your 30s can feel completely fine… until suddenly it doesn't. Your friends are married, having children and building lives with their partners. You're not on dating apps, you don't have many single friends and you find yourself wondering: where am I actually supposed to meet someone? And underneath that is the question that's much harder to admit: what if I never do? In this episode, I'm talking about the pressure of the timeline we thought our lives would follow, the fear of running out of time, comparison, being surrounded by couples and how easily 'I don't know when I'll meet someone' can become 'maybe I never will.' This isn't an episode telling you to get a hobby, download a dating app or learn to love being single so much that you stop wanting a relationship. You are allowed to want love. You are allowed to find this chapter difficult sometimes. This is about learning how to live fully in the uncertainty without treating your life right now as evidence of what your future will look like. If you feel like everyone else is moving forward while you're still waiting for your life to begin, this episode is for you. 🤍 Want More Like This - https://stan.store/Loula  My New Instagram - @move.with.lou Join Us on Patreon - ⁠patreon.com/ComingUpForAir⁠  Youtube - https://youtu.be/uf90Uc_owUw  Support the show

    You're Not Struggling Because You're Single. Here's What's Really Happening.

    Why does being single feel so much harder than it should? If you've ever found yourself wondering why everyone else seems to be moving on, why you're still waiting for your life to begin, or why being single feels like a personal failure, this episode is for you. In this conversation, I am not talking about learning to 'love being single' or pretending you don't want a relationship. I am talking about the hidden beliefs that make being single so painful in the first place. Together, we'll explore why being single can feel like rejection, why you might be grieving more than just your relationship, how comparison convinces you you're falling behind, and why your relationship status has quietly become tied to your self-worth. This episode is for anyone navigating heartbreak, healing after a breakup, rebuilding their confidence, or trying to stop seeing being single as something they need to escape. If you've ever asked yourself: 💛 Why am I still single? 💛 Why does everyone else seem to be moving on? 💛 How do I stop feeling left behind? 💛 Will I ever meet someone? I hope this episode reminds you that you're not broken, you're not behind, and your life doesn't have to wait for someone else to begin. If this episode resonates with you, I'd love it if you followed the podcast and shared it with someone who needs to hear this today.
