What to do...


Question Posted Wednesday April 2 2008, 12:26 am

Me and my boyfriend have been broken up since january. we had a hard 10 months. the last two months have/had been weird between us too. recently though, we talked everything out about what's going on between us. it's all sorted out and we're happy as friends right now.

there are several lists of things from our relationship i can name and a big story like most relationships have...but just altogether, my life is quite smooth right now despite all that--except, i can't get my ex out of my head. it's not a bad thing because he knows that and everything, but he shouldn't be the center of my thoughts. you know? he is my friend now after all. and i have school to focus on and the other important things in life.

any ideas how i can set him aside in my head?

You just got out of a long and what sounds like difficult relationship. For the first few months it is only natural that you are going to just think of him and even somewhat miss him. After being together for that long you kind of get used to the other person being there so naturally when there not you think of them. The best advice I can give you is to keep your mind on school, hobbies, and other projects. I would honestly say I think its a little soon to be dating or starting anything new because then the next guy will inevitably end up the "Rebound Guy".
Hopefully that helps A little.

GOOD LUCK

there are no guarantees of getting someone out of your head, i've been in your exact spot before & i know what it's like to miss your ex.

the best you can do, is try to move on, and accept that everything is changing. even though that is one of the hardest things to do.
even flirting around with other guys & meeting new people may help take your mind off of him.
but when you were previously in love with someone, letting go is the hardest part of the goodbye.
