So I started college about a month ago... up until then I was single and wasnt missing my ex girlfriend. It's now been a month and more and more I miss my ex girlfriend.

I dated her last fall and it lasted only a short time, then in the summer we kinda dated, we definitely had a thing and were intimate. Out of nowhere she ended things, which I respect, but I could kind of tell it was coming. I have always been able to kind of tell when someone has lost interest or is acting weird when in a relationship with me. So I knew kind of.

But I didnt miss her for about a month... I still had time left in summer so I don't know why I never missed her but being here at college I miss her more and more every day. I always think back to things that we did or memories we had. Things like that.

I'm wondering why I would be missing her? What can I do to get over missing her?

I already struggle with making friends and I am struggling with other parts of life so the added thoughts of her in my life just dont help.

I feel like the only way you can get over your ex girlfriend is being busy. You say you have no friends, so why not focus on making friends, or focus on doing better in school. Your best friend right now is Time, time will help you get over her, maybe not completely but enough to let you get on with your life.
Remember to focus on bettering the parts of your life that you feel your struggling on, and I hope that everything turns out well!


If you knew your 27 year old brother was on cocaine and heroin and you felt that having him arrested was the only way to protect his life, would you do it?

If you, your parents, and your other siblings had tried everything, and I mean EVERYTHING short of getting him arrested and it all had failed to get him off of the drugs, what would you do? What if you had enough proof that he possesses drugs for the police to make the arrest? Would you actually call the police and have your own brother cuffed and thrown in jail?

He's already been arrested twice and sent to rehab twice and of he's arrested again he could be in big, BIG trouble. He might hate you if you do it and although your parents have talked about doing it themselves, everyone else might think you're a horrible brother. Still, you love home too much to let those consequences control your decision.

He actually overdosed once and almost died. His roommate had to call an ambulance and when they got there, your brother had stopped breathing and they had to shove a tube down his throat to force air into his lungs. You had to drive you parents to the hospital because upon hearing the news, they went into some kind of episode driven by the fear that their son was either dying or dead.

In addition to the fear you feel for your brother, your parents are living in agony because they're terrified for his life and you're worried that their stress and anxiety is damaging their health. You mom can't sleep well most nights and can't sleep at all some nights. She's constantly on the verge of having a coronary because of she can't live with the terror of her son dying from a drug overdose and your dad is always stressed out too. Your siblings live in agony as well and it'd just be better for everyone if your brother got off the drugs one way or another. What would you do? (link)
My cousin has been in the same situation, but he's 19 and I feel like he's addicted but won't admit it to himself. He has been in too many car accidents because he has been under the influence by all the drugs he uses. The last accident he had almost left him paralyzed, but he so stubborn, he won't stop doing drugs and continues to use drugs even when his family continues to lecture him on his bad choices, or even when he almost died.
At this point that both our families seem to be at, all we can do is hope and pray that nothing happens to them and let them know that we will be there for them when they want to better themselves.
Make sure to also let your brother know that you love him and that you want him to take care of himself, tell him that every day, maybe then his eyes will open up.
I hope everything turns out well!
