How did you get over your ex GF/BF?

yes. after 3 heartbreaking years i was able to get over my ex, who also happend to be my first love. i loved her so much. ive been courting her since we were 12 years old up until we were 18. she broke up with me (she had another guy) and it shattered my life. i couldnt stop loving her even after that so what i did was i kept on loving her until the feelings all ran out. whew! people usually tell us to get ourselves busy but it just doesnt work that way. so in answering your questions:

- i never let that kind of love go. i let it let go of me. :)

- i still care for her, but in a bestfriend kind of way.

- would i go back to her given the chance? if im single then i definitely will.

- i just loved her from the distance till i couldnt anymore.

I am literally in this process at this moment. I love him to death, but I know that I need to move on because I spent way more time arguing, and making up with him than just being happy and letting things go. I need to figure myself out before I can really be with anyone else. To answer the rest of you questions:

-I will always love him

-We are spending time apart to really just be single and decide on what is important to us. I know what I want for my future, and I have told him those things... and he has done the same. now we just need time to be by our self. If after school is done we feel we should give it another try, we will.. but we both know it won't be the same.

- This works for our situation. Maybe you guys need a good truthful talk, and a break. If you can't be 100% honest with each other about how you feel then you are setting yourself up for failure later. If you let it go every time he hurts you when he "does something wrong" what is going to happen in 10 years when you might have a kid... imagine how complicated things can and will get throughout life.

I have been in a similar situation, and it took me about three months to get over it. All the while, I was thinking that it was not normal that it was taking so long.

You're going to need time, it sounds like. Don't try to instantly be over your ex or jump to a new relationship right away. Focus on yourself and figuring out how to be happy while single. For me, I started my freshman year at a college six hours away from home, so meeting new people and challenging myself in classes really helped.

It probably feels like no one else has felt this way, but I think most people might have at one time or another, and look, they got through it just fine!

Age has lots to do with the respond. youthful human beings do tend to get dramatic, the present adventure of a injury up can look overwhelming yet as we age, genuinely all and sundry understand better effectual and that's in all probability the degree you're in precise now, in straight forward phrases like me.

i still think about her once in a while, she really screwed me over bad and hurt me and really stung big time, but time heals all wounds.
