if you know there is no other chnace between u and ur ex only if your 100% sure that he left you for another gurl then hell yeah look for a new b/f or you could always have a guy on the side and if your ex ever comes back break up with the other guy

I think you should wait honey because you're hurt insde and you miss him which means you're not ready. Go out out with your family and friends,and distract yourself. Im sorry to hear that, hang in there. Take care

you are still in love with him, you need to get over him. since you still think about your ex, it is not a good idea to date someone yet. Your new boyfriend will get tired of being compaired to your ex. so i suggest that you wait a while to date. but i suggest to go out and meet guys though. wait till your completly over your ex to date, ok.

Hi there,

Breaking up with a loved one is a hard thing to get over. It takes time. For a while you'll wish you were still together and you'll still like him. But in time, you'll have moved on and gotten over him.

There's so many other guys out there, you'll find the right one. It takes time to find the right guy. There will most likely be other break ups in your life, but you'll overcome them and in the end it will be worth it because you'll find the right guy and you'll be happy.

I know what this is like, but I think you've just got to try once more to get him back and if that doesn't work start to get over him. It's hard enough as it is to get over people, so it'd best to start as soon as possible instead of dragging your emotions out for ages.

I'd say try to get him back one final time first because you never know and you'll just regret it if you don't. Don't try and buy him back with icecream etc. (even though i'd love it if someone did that for me!) instead have a talk with him. (on the phone or even instant messaging if that's easier). Tell him you still like him and that you think you could make it work. Ask him how he feels and whether he wants to make another go at the relationship again. If EITHER of his answers are negative then you have to try to forget him. If they're both positive then great, go for it! And really try and make it work :)

OK so if you're only left with the option of getting over him then lets try and go about this the best way. So, he was your first kiss - that's always special, but girl, you have so many more of those coming your way. Don't limit yourself to one guy! OK, he'll always be special to you; but nothing is going to change that - keep the memories but now move on. A good way to start getting over someone is to get out all your emotions about them to a friend/down on paper. Once they're out of your system... let them go.

Now try and forget him. Think of him as a mate and a mate only. If you find yourself thinking of him push those thoughts out your head. Sometimes jokingly insulting him in your head (you know all his little flaws - he can't be perfect) helps. Keep yourself busy, so you can't get down thinking of him. Go out: socialise, join new clubs, meet new people... even meet new boys!

The best way to cure a broken heart is to fall for someone else. Ofcourse you can't force yourself to do this, but it will come in time and hopefully the next guy you like will be just as lovely as this one. So have fun, flirt and get over this guy!

Good Luck!

I no we all hate brake-ups...but you have the right idea, it is not to early at all, you should look 4 guys as soon as you are ready too, but dont be sad about the past and move on, before you no it you will have a man that sweeps you off your feet! xoxo- Tara (feel free to im me at sunshineQT62!)

It really depends on what you think. But how I htink about it is that HE broke up with you so it's your choice not his. Try to get over your ex a little more. I've gone out with a few guys but noticed I still loved my ex a wicked lot. It was really hard to go out with those other boys because he was all i thought about. Just really think on what you should do. Good luck! drop one in my inbox if you need any more help! <3

That is really up to you. If you feel you are ready by all means go for it.

My personal advice would to be give yourself some time. People make jokes about rebound relationships so often because it happens so often. You are right out of an intense relationship and are trying to get that intensity back rather then building a new, solid relationship with a new person.

Don't rush yourself, single life isn't hell, focus on yourself for a bit.
