Just remember to breathe because you loved them. Actually, you probably always will in some capacity and that is okay.
You may want to text them, check their facebook or instagram or twitter, scroll through the photos of you together. Allow yourself that moment to think about the past but please consider the option of making a clean break. Each of your circumstances is different. Each of you knows what happened better than anyone ever will.
Sometimes the worst part is that you had to break both of your hearts because you no longer saw yourself as good enough for your partner. You still love them with all that you are, you may even still be in love with them, but you just couldn’t see yourself as good enough to stay in their life. Maybe you became too busy, maybe you second guessed yourself too much, maybe you just weren’t ready. Whatever your reason, it hurts. You still see them as the stars in your sky and they are still home to you. So yes, it hurts, please know that I understand this all too well.
