1. Respect the other party's choice: Understand and respect the lover's decision to return to the family. This indicates that he/she may have carefully considered and believed that this is the best choice for themselves, their families, and the future of your relationship. Avoid arguing or forcing the other party to change their decision, stay calm and rational.
2. Self reflection and adjustment: Use this time to reflect on yourself, think about what this experience has brought you, and the role you have played in it. Assess your emotional needs and consider how to meet them in a healthy manner. If possible, seek the help of a psychological counselor to better manage emotions and set new life goals and boundaries for yourself.
3. Gradually reducing contact and seeking new support networks: Although this may be painful, gradually reducing contact with your lover is necessary. At the same time, strive to expand social circles, establish new friendships and support networks. Participating in interest groups, social activities, or volunteering can help you make new friends, shift your focus, and find new joy in life. In this process, one should also learn to be alone and enjoy the process of self growth and self discovery.
