Question Posted Wednesday September 3 2008, 1:26 pm
My bf just broke up with me like 3 weeks ago, and we had been going out for 9 months! At first i wasn't too bugged by it b/c he had been being a jerk and it was kinda nice being single. Now, he has a new gf (they both go to a different school) and i almost feel jealous. We e-mail eachother...but don't ever talk on the phone...even tho he said he wanted to be "friends" still. I just want to get over this guy since it seems like he got over me pretty quickly (he got a new gf like a week and a half after we broke up). When I e-mail him I think I always sound desperate and like i'm trying to get him back, but i don't mean to sound like that nad i really have no idea what to do.
HELP! i'm so confused :(

That way you don't regret and it seems as if you are over him and frankly don't care about him anymore. So stop emailing him and just see what happens, you'll be over him before you know it. Remember the easiest way to get over a guy is to cut ALL communication with him for a while, a while could be months or just days, depending on how fast you get over guys. You never know, he could be a jerk and force himself into a relationship when he isn't ready, just to make you jealous. So forget him, he isn't worth it. Plus, it is over.
