The sadness which your feeling is just the feeling which you get when you sub-conscious thinks about all the fact that you cannot see him anymore.
But don't let this get you down. Think about the happy times which you spent with him during those 5 months. Think about the fact that he was your first love and that shared your first kiss with him: that's got to count for something, doesn't it? Just because you're far away, doesn't mean that you can't keep in contact with him. Skype him (if he's got it as well as you) or call him, e-mail him or something. Don't be put down by the negative, think of the positive.

Some people seem to get over it right away, whereas others take some time to stop thinking about the ex, let alone get over it.
There is nothing wrong with feeling sad. You like the guy and wish things could be different. You didn't end the relationship on bad terms.
It just wasn't possible to maintain a healthy long distance relationship.
You will get past this sadness in due time.
The best thing you can do is talk to your friends, even if you are confused about how you should be feeling. That is what friends are for.
Don't worry and think that you shouldn't be feeling this way. The way you are feeling is perfectly normal.
It hurts a lot now, but I promise it will hurt less and less as time goes by. It may take a couple more weeks, it may take a couple of months. It's different with everyone.
xyourheart answered Tuesday January 8 2008, 9:42 pm: Im sorry for your loss. I just recently went through a break up as well - a year and 5 month relationship.. I know how your feeling. You said you got closure which is a BIG step.
You guys only broke up a week ago, thats practically yesterday, your allowed to be sad for at least a month, I dont think you will still be sad after that.
For me I just called up my best frined any time I thought of him, or wanted to call him or anything. We had a lot of girls nights out, and Taylor Swift's Cd became the sound track of my life (and i dont even like country music!) Go out and by her cd - its worth it. at the bottom of the cd it says something like "to all those boys who thought it was okay to go break my heart, heres 11 songs written about you. HA."
Music and my best girl friends seemed to be the remidy for me.
My ex goes to my school and i have to see him every day, and when I do or whenever I think about him, I tell my self just think of the future, whats next? whos next? because the future holds so many better things to be discovered! Since your ex dosnt go to your school, that should make things ALOT easyer!!
