"Today my professor told me every cell in our entire body is destroyed and replaced every seven years. How comforting it is to know one day I will have a body you will have never touched." ~ Unknown
Nothing. It's never been that serious where I need to get rid of anything physically to feel anew. When I'm mentally done with the person, then I'm done, and there's no need to clean out my closet or do anything drastic. When I'm not mentally done, I may avoid the things that remind me of the person for a while but eventually I find my way back to those prized possessions once I've mentally decided it's time to move on, and then once again at that point there is no need to do anything drastic. I've never assigned much meaning to tangible items that were shared in a relationship, to me the cleaning out process is always in the mind.

Well said and I feel as though this sums it up for me as well.
I don't throw much of anything away, unless they've left something at my house that isn't worth returning. Instead, I just take care of myself. I hit the gym, go out with friends more, and try new things. Basically, anything to get my mind off the situation and help me move on. That's what I'm doing right now. It's working. And I'm more productive at this point. Just planned a solo trip to a place the ex would never have gone! That's a sweet revenge!
I do absolutely nothing and carry on like they never happened.
