Heart broken


Question Posted Friday January 20 2006, 5:09 pm

Me and my girlfriend of 3 years just broke up. Well she broke up with me, claiming she needed a time out to decide what to do with her life. I love this girl so much, and as you guys can imagine im debastated and heart broken. My question is, what should i do, ive been getting all emotional, and i dont wanna be anymore, the way i see it she got rid of me for no real reason. Should i start dating/fooling around with other women, or should i wait a litle bit? i always find that its easier to forget if you get somebody else.

You have to think about it, three years is alot and I don't think you should just forget about it.I know you might think that's crazy but if you really LOVE someone you can't just forget about them.Just sit down and talk to her and tell her your real feelings and be straight up with her be like do you think i'll ever get another chance? If she says no then go to other girls but if ya then give it time. You seem so sweet I don't know why she would just do that.Good Luck ♥

3 years.. that's a long time. I'd say give it awhile. If you really do love her then you wouldn't just try to forget her. If it was three years there's still a chance she might come back to you. Give it a month at least..

Hope I helped!

No, you should never give up, please don't, because if you do, then you won't be happy, but don't nesisairly persue it either. Just stay where you are...

i think you should definetly wait a little before showing interest in other people. maybe if she sees that you need her she might even come back to you. you never know. if it starts being awhile and shes moved on alot with other guys, you should to...i know its hard, but if she can do it then so can you. hope i helped.

I wouldn't get any other girl for a little while b/c people might think that you just date girls just for the image. I'm sorry she just broke up with you, but things will work out. You've got time to find the RIGHT person for you. If she dumped you, she really isn't the right one. You will indeed fine the right girl. The girl of your dreams might have seemed like it was her, but she's only one girl. This might sound corney, but there are other fish in the sea.

well..if the girl that broke up with you comes back to you...and if you get with other women,,she might think your not the guy she thought you were...since you didnt wait for her..i mean if she says she needs time..then give it to her..if you love her it shouldnt be a problem .. just wait alittle longer..she might come around...if she doesnt sooner or later ...then talk to her about it...ask her whats really bothering her...

This happens a lot in long term relationships. I've been in her position before. She didn't break up with you for no reason to be a bitch...just sometimes in longer relationships you start to lose sight of the bigger picture and you've built your life around this one person so much it feels like you need to build it around yourself for a little while instead.

I know it sucks to be really emotional, as I have also been in your position, but the more you literally try to force it away, the worse it's going to get. Just give yourself time and don't tear yourself up if you take longer to get over her. It's better to take the necessary time to get over someone and completely heal than to push it away and bury it. If you feel like dating will make you feel better, then by all means, go ahead and do it, but don't go and have mindless casual sex to fill the void. I know it would probably be tempting, but that honestly just makes that void more empty.

Anyway, just give her a little space for a couple/few weeks and then tell her how you feel. Telling her right now might push her away more because of how confused she is. If even then she seems distant and she doesn't want to talk about it, then still keep giving her space until she seems more open to talking and compromising. She'll appreciate that you're still there but that you've also given her time to sort through what's happening with her.

Well im sorry about the break up,they can be really rough.Since you guys just broke up,i would suggest that you maybe take some time for griving,since your relationship lasted for 3 years,its going to take you awhile to get over her.But if you want to get out and start to date to get your mind off of her,you could try it but you might not be just ready yet for that.It really all depends on if you think your ready to start dating again,whenever you think your ready go for it.Moving on is a slow,hard process but youll get through it,everyone does at some point.I hope everything works out for you!

Oh well you are her could possibly go out again,but you dont know how long that will take when shes ready to be with you again.You can still have that hope of being with her again,but i guess in the meantime you can date other people.
