It's awful when you can't seem to shake the other person out of your system. Great job, good advice!!

@jbjane123 It wasn't meant to be then. No offense. true love linches on and just because you cant see love in the air doesn't mean you cant feel it. And there's always going to be someone out there for you. I grantee you that :D. just never lose hope and move on.

Honestly when my gf broke up with me. I felt like crying up a storm. Because i love her so much. But honestly I felt good when i was thinking it wasn't the end for me. I new what I did wrong and now I'm fixing my mistakes. I was afraid of being lonely now , that fear just left the building. I feel good and happy. It was my fault. I wont do the same mistake again :D.

My boyfriend broke up with me because of many reasons ( we live far apart and he wanted to be single), and it just feels like anything can set me off right now, someone mentioning something, a song, photos, etc. i just can't stop thinking about him. He looked after me and now i feel so empty and upset. I just want to be looked after.

@SuperHeyhey3 no one here can feel what you're feeling because we aren't you. but i know i've felt something like that before and it's numbing and deep and painful. you have let someone see a vulverable side of you and it didn't work out that way you expected. you feel like a failure because you trusted someone and they let you down. you know what i say to that? fuck that person. YOU still kick ass. plus, there is ALWAYS someone hotter. depression free for 5 years.

@SuperHeyhey3 i wish i could help you, just think positive, i promise you later in your life ur gonna find someone who truly loves you, and ur gonna look back and be like" why did i cry over that"?

@pierneus yea, well cross my fingers, i hope hes moving, because i'm sure he doesnt love me. he kinda made that clear when he said the only reason he went out with me was because i was nice eye candy, and i had a nice bod. to top it all off, i cant stop thinking about my OTHER ex, who i know for a fact i am not going to date again [we had a habit of making each other feel bad and getting back at each other for stupid things]. im sorry to hear about yu and yur girlfriend. best of luck (:

[pierneus]

@Aniekxii This way it's more difficult for him to realize wether or not he still loves you. You should avoid him for a while. It's bad that all of your friends are in common. You should try to stay away from him for a while. Well, at least that was my experience with my girlfriend, who by the way dumped me just yesterday after we had gotten back together. Sometimes it's just destiny...relationships end and we must deal with the pain.
