goes better vs gets better

"go better" is used of procedures, activities, etc., or of machines, meaning that something operates or runs more smoothly or successfully. For example, "this year's conference went better than last year's" or "cars go better if you keep them well maintained".

"get better" is used of improvements in condition, situation, health, etc., e.g. "the political situation has got better", "I hope

If I change it to my life, which one is right?

1.My life gets better without you.
2.My life goes better without you.

I think "my life gets better without you" is better, because someone is out of the picture, my life improves
Is that right? or both will do.

Yes, with "life", "get better" is usual. The tense in your example is slightly unusual in practice. Most often this would be said in a slightly different way, such as "My life is better without you" or, if you want to emphasise a continuing but not yet complete improvement, "My life is getting better without you". Your sentence is not actually wrong though.

So you mean "my life is better without you" is more common in saying, and "get better" seems better in progressive tense?
Thanks a lot!

To describe the present situation, use "is better". To describe a process of improvement that is ongoing, use "is getting better". To describe a process that has occurred in the past and is dictating the present state, use "has got better".

Is the person who is the "you" in the sentence already out of your life, as in gone; or are you stating that your life will get better once that person is out of your life at some time to come in the future?

If the person is still in my life, I wish he or she to get out my life, then I suppose it will be..
My life will be better without you.
However, if I just want to state the idea of someone out of my life can make my life better, probably it will be
My life gets better without you, or my life is getting better without you then "you"most likely has already got away.

If the above

I got it~
thanks a lot

"My life will be better without you" implies that you know the other person will be leaving in the future. If you don't know this but are hoping or hypothesising, say "My life would be better wit

Thanks again..
To sum up, something is getting better is more common for native speakers to say something is improving.
while something is going better is less common to used to state the progress of improvement.

I have another question just came up. If I use "look up", is it more appropriate in progressive tense, or present tense
to state the condition where someone has alrea
