How to get over someone?

[Obsidian]

I feel dumb asking this. But I was dating this guy for a couple of months or so and even though that's not a very long time I feel like I really fell in love with him. I'm a shy person and he was the first guy that I felt totally comfortable being myself around. It was my first real relationship and it was the most amazing feeling in the world.

But then he ended up breaking up with me because 'he needed to focus on other things in his life.' And we were still talking as friends for awhile but eventually I just started ignoring him because it hurt too much.

We broke up almost three months ago now and I still feel awful about it. I think it's because I tried to ignore the feelings I had about it and pretend like I didn't care. But the thought that I'm never going to see him again or maybe never even talk to him again makes me cry every time I think about it. I've told him I still have feelings for him but he's just made up his mind that he doesn't want to be in a relationship right now and it doesn't make a difference to him.

I just want to stop thinking about him and not feel heartbroken about it anymore, but I have no idea how :(

Bad news. There is no easy way to forget. And you prob shouldnt. But try and remember the GOOD times. The comfortableness. The closeness. Look back, but dont ruminate on it. Look forward having gained new perspective and knowing you have experienced and learned things (good things) about yourself. If it was that good, u will always have memories.
Allowing yourself to "mourn" is necessary to.heal. ik its all sounds lkke bs, but try it. Hope it helps.

I know how you feel. It's tough getting over someone. It took me a year to completely get over my ex. You should try to do things to keep your mind off him. Hang out with your friends and have a good time. With my ex I deleted all the pictures we had together so I wouldn't see them again and get upset so maybe you could try that. You will get over him, I promise. Good luck. <3

Break things. Cry a lot. Tell people how awful he was on an internet forum/blogging site.

i know how you feel the main reason i got over my ex very quickly is i realized she was no good for me and she didn't really like me for who i was but instead for something she thought i was. my best advice is keep your self distracted and remove all traces of him from your life.
