alright this question may sound a bit cliche,
but does anyone have any suggestions on ways to
keep your mind off of a breakup? or anyways
to try to make me feel better.
i just got over a 6month relationship.
and it's hard, i know it wasn't that long,
and we'll most likely never date again.
but ive been feeling horrible. and i cant live
my life all depressed and what not.
any suggestions?
cause im sure 578685797834 people have
gone through the same thing, thanks.=]

Yes, we have gone through it. People are supposed to go through it (generally speaking) usually more than once or twice in their whole life. ...6 months IS a long time. Sure, there have been longer but that doesn't matter. Your relationship lasted 6 months. You know what made me feel better when my 1st (so far only) love and I broke up? (sure, it was temporary but it heled a lot and it wasn't unhealthy) Shopping. The next day I went shopping with my cousins. I feel sad but not so alone and I did have fun. I thought about ME, what I wanted, whether it was a new skirt or happiness. So eat ice cream, shop, watch movies, watch funny shows (they help like aspirin. they work fast. i'm not saying the pain won't come back later but the goal is to get through it until one day you won't have to tell yourself it'll be okay... you really will be okay). If there are any unressolved issues I suggest you get closure. That best way is to talk to your ex, but the most important thing is just to have closure, whether it is by analyzing it (just don't over do it to the point you make yourself sad and do it when you are thnking logically and reaslistically) or getting a friend to talk to your ex. Another thing, while you feel crappy its best to keep a distance from your ex. You can be friends AFTER you're OVER it. [ vilelove's advice column | Ask vilelove A Question ]
crazygoober2006 answered Friday April 7 2006, 9:05 pm: I honestly don't know if there is anything that can keep your mind off of a break up, just remember that he was the one that broke up w/ you. It was HIS loss, not yours. I was in a relationship for 3 months, and another one for 8 and I still love the one of 8, and the one of 3 doesn't talk to me much. It's not an easy thing to go through. I still have a hard time of it. I hope you have friends to talk to about it because that's what makes it easier for me. I thank God that my situation w/ the one of 8 months is still today my best guy friend in the entire world...otherwise, I'd probably be miserable. He's just a boy, he may be a special boy, but there are others. Especially if you don't think you'll be getting back together. That's how I feel about the boy of 3 mons. You'll be okay...appreciate the good times you had w/ him, and make new ones w/ new boys. Good luck! [ crazygoober2006's advice column | Ask crazygoober2006 A Question ]
SoInToYoUx0x answered Friday April 7 2006, 5:22 pm: yea everyone has to go through this. my advice to you i go out with your friends and have fun. dont worry about the guy or any guy for that matter. go out do something you havent done in a while. sit down at your place with all your best friends with you and watch a movie. your friends should always be there to help you up when you fall down. dont let this guy ruin your life. i mean he is the one missing out on a beauitful girl and how much fun he could be having with you right now. hope this helps.
