500 Days of Summer is released on DVD this week and follows Tom as he struggles to get over his break up with Summer.

So if you are having a few relationship blues in the New Year Behavioural Psychologist and the co founder of the Relationship Coaching Academy Jo Hemmings but together some tips to get your love life back in track.

1. If you’re single, resolve to do something new. Instead of thinking about Internet, speed dating or buying a hot new outfit get out there and do it! 

2. Need some guidance on your love life? Booking a session with a Dating or Relationship Coach could be just the boost and direction that you need. 

3. Take the opportunity to clear out your underwear drawer and consign all greying, baggy bras and pants to the bin.  High street stores do fabulous underwear these days invest in something sexy!
 
4. Pep up things in the bedroom, by spicing things up a little. 

5. Remind yourself that dating is about having fun, if you’re stuck in a rut ask yourself ‘Is it worth it?’ and if you need to move on, remember that practice makes perfect. 

6. Being interested in activities outside of work/looking for a partner is what makes you interesting. Taking your foot off the gas in trying to find a partner and doing other stuff that you enjoy is often a fast track to finding someone special. 

7. Resolve to be firm but fair letting someone down with a polite but clear message that you’re not a match made in heaven, is better than being stuck on a second or third date because you don’t want to upset them.

8. Next time your partner says ‘What’s up?’ resolve not to say ‘Nothing’.  Learn to speak your mind firmly but tactfully and improve those important communication skills.

9.Resolve to improve your flirting skills.  Flirting gets a lot of bad press, but done well to someone you fancy it’s the most direct yet subtle message you can give and makes the other person feel great!

10. Be open minded about your potential partner. Don’t be too picky with a long shopping list nor too random in your choices. Both are fruitless restrict yourself to three ‘must haves’ and let the rest unfold naturally.

500 Days of Summer is available to buy on Blu-ray and DVD now.
