& he was ALWAYS on my mind & all i wanted was to get him out of my head. but no matter what you do, he's going to be in your mind, there are just some ways to ease the thought down a bit.
just like my friend said below this:
- friends are a wonderful way of helping. talk to them about everything, get it out of your head.
- get out of your house. go out, walk around, run, hang out with friends, go to the movies, the library, spend the night at a family member's house, anything besides staying at home by yourself. when you're at home you're more than likely to think about him more.
-meet other guys. not necessarily date them right away, but be friend a lot of guys. have fun with them. keep your mind occupied.
-write about how you feel. writing is my getaway, it always helps me.
-stay friends with him & talk to him about why things happened the way they did or why you chose to break up.
- or you could try to work things back out with eachother. if he's on your mind like crazy, there has to be a reason, you know? maybe deep down you really love him & just need a short break.
the only thing that is definate of getting someone out of your head, is time.
time heals all wounds. it may seem like forever, and some days are going to be harder than others, but you can't just break up with someone & expect you to not think about them.
give it time.
good luck :) [ karisue's advice column | Ask karisue A Question ]
cloudy_conscience answered Thursday April 17 2008, 6:53 pm: I know exactly what you are going through, I broke up with my boyfriend of 3 years about 8 months ago and moving on was the most difficult thing I have ever done. Everyone told me that I broke up with him so it should be easy for me to get over him, but what they don't understand is that that person was a part of you and even if you aren't in love with them anymore, they will always be a part of you. Things will always remind you of them and getting those out of your head is not easy.
Friends were a lifesaver for me after our break-up. They kept my mind away, but when I wanted to talk about it they were there. Another thing that helped was he and I stayed friends, that let us talk to one another about what happened and it was easier to let go when he was still going to be around. I know it feels like he will never get out of your head, but I promise it will get easier, yes things will always remind you of him but it always gets easier. It may take sometime, but it comes.
