Q: Ok, well yesterday I was talkin' to my friend Jordan and I kept talking about this guy I like, ((Ryan, He's gotta girlfriend. Her mom died. I went out with him first.)) and she was like, "Paige, you need to get over him. I'm sorry but obviously he isn't the one for you. I don't want him to break your heart." And, I guess I keep thinking if I keep waiting he'll break up with Katie and go out with me. I really need to get over him and I can't wait like 5 months, ((I'm moving)) I need to get over him now but I don't know how...

Dear Paige,
Getting over people can be the hardest thing a person can do. Here's what you can do. If you're not friends with him, cut him out. Avoid seeing him, get rid of pictures of you two, and erase his number if you have a cell phone. Then try going on a date with someone else just for fun. If you are moving, it's almost pointless to wait for him to break up because long distance relationships are hard to keep, especially if you're still in school. It will be hard and might really hurt a lot but soon you'll see that a day went by. Then a week. Then a month. and before you know it, it's been five months and you're leaving and you say, "wow, i'm over him... it was hard, but I did it." It may also help to get some closure. Ask Ryan to go out to lunch or meet you somewhere and make some closure. Ask him if he's positive that nothing can happen, that you are trying to get over him and please don't come up to me, that you had fun during the time you were together and you're glad you can leave it on a good note before you move. It will make you feel so much better.
