I had a b.f for 7 months off and on and we kept getting back together, he saved me from jumping off my roof in the summer, and helped me get better with my cutting and eating disorder..it was hard to let go of him but i knew i had to cause in the end he was only making me worse..its not easy being alone..so talk to her maybe you can hit it off one more time..but the only way to a good relationship is to be TOTALLY honest and i mean everything..you'll hit bumps sure but if you make it through then it makes it a stronger bond..and dont go looking for love..let it come to you, just try to enjoy your life i know its hard but if you lead a life of depression you can never do the things you love <3 [ BlackRose18's advice column | Ask BlackRose18 A Question ]

If she hurt you that much in the past, get rid of her. You can't stop thinking about what's happened, so it obviously hurt you so much. In some cases it's better to forgive and forget, but if she hurt you mentally THAT much, you shouldn't have to deal with that. I realize you feel bad about making her feel bad, but what you have to focus on now is-- what's best for YOU?
I know someone in same sort of situation, he thinks that they're completely in love, but they aren't. Luckily-- *knock on wood* he hasn't done anything stupid, because they've been back together, for awhile. I know she's cheating, I just have no proof, that's just the way she is.
Go to a party, hang out with some girls you know-- get over her, and find someone that won't hurt you. You'll eventually get over her-- before she hurts you more. [ xhillary's advice column | Ask xhillary A Question ]
