Question Posted Tuesday November 18 2008, 12:36 pm
i dated this guy for about 2 years and i was in love. its been about 7 months now since weve broken up, and im not over him due to the fact that for the first 5 months after we broke up we would still hangout and he would still tell me he had alot of feelings for me until i couldnt take all of that bullshit anymore. just last month hes been saying that he missed me and that he still loved me.. then i wouldnt hear from him for another couple weeks.. its just confusing and annoying like if he really loved me he would actually be trying, but he doesnt and i just want to be done with it all because ive been so hurt by all his bullshit! anyways!! i really just want to get over him, any advice on ways to forget somenoe you were in love with? i really wish i could find a new guy to replace him and make me forget him but ive been trying and im just not into anybody.. i thought finding a new boyfriend would be much easier but its not at all. i go out a lot with friends but, it doesnt exactly help me get over him?

GilbertMar answered Wednesday November 19 2008, 11:53 pm: You still love him and always will, just like he will. Love can't be taken back, once given. When it comes right down to it, there wasn't enough, to the two of you, to like each other well enough to stay together. There is nothing wrong with this, but you can not take like out of the equation. It doesn't matter how many years it's been, that will not change. You have tasted the love between man and women now, you just need to find the one that you will like enough and will like you enough to spend your lives together. These things don't happen just because you want them to, it takes time. Wait for it, watch for it, but never push it. Your soul mate will come when it's time.

SWEETXLOVE answered Wednesday November 19 2008, 11:43 pm: it is hard, it really is. love is one of the best things in the world, but can also be the worst. love teaches you everything. you will never forget someone you were in love with and two years is a very long time. you may never let go of the feelings you have for him, at least not for awhile and right now you don't have to let this one go so fast because certain people enter our lives at the most peculiar times, for the most beautiful reasons. they seem to make such perfect impressions while leaving behind an everlasting impact. some of the best things in life appear when you least expect them. things you can never forget. it may take years to forget about him, and move on like you want to but i promise it will get better in time. you need to stay strong. your girls will help you through this. i know that feeling that when you're with your friends and you just want to have fun without thinking about him, but it's all thats on your mind. i get that, i've been through that too many times to count. i've realized that it didn't work out for a reason, at first i didn't want to move on. i couldn't possibly see myself with another boy but then i realized that i didn't need a boy to make me happy, i needed to make myself happy first. there is nothing you can really do to completely get over him, it takes time. but keep yourself occupied, keep hanging out with your friends. don't find yourself sitting at home because it does make things worse. it is hard when he keeps talking to you, and saying that he misses you and that he still loves you but if you really want to get over this boy, you may just have to lose all contact with him. now maybe he just stopped talking to you because you were saying that you just wanted to be done with all of it, and maybe he just thought he was wasting his time on a girl that wasn't going to take him back so he didn't see a point in still trying. most guys seem to get over girls easier than girls getting over guys but don't ever think that he is not thinking about you when he is with his friends, don't ever think that he is not still wanting to be with you, and realized that what he had was one of the best things in the world. stay strong girl, keep your chin up. i know you will get through this, SMILE :) please!! i believe in you ♥ LU [ SWEETXLOVE's advice column | Ask SWEETXLOVE A Question ]
christina12677 answered Wednesday November 19 2008, 11:40 pm: wow, i can relate to how you are feeling. not fully, but a little. It sounds to me like you want him back or something. If that is the case, then i think you should do to him what he is doing to you. make him want you. make him feel like how you are feeling right now. like when he says stuff and doesn't talk to you for like 2 weeks. you should think about doing the same but with maybe telling him exactly how you feel, and then ignore him. it will probably make him crazy. i think the really good way is to say how you feel, and then when he texts you back, ignore him. it will bug the shit out of him. or, another thing you can do is like if you are talking, tell him how you feel, and then just interrupt when he wants to respond, and be like "oh my gosh, i gotta go, i just remebered something...bye." i think this could get to him a lot. but even with all this, you seem to have had too much and as you say "have been so hurt by all this bullshit, and want to get over him". To get over him is probably and likely gonna happen in a small period of time. Because it seems like you had a really strong connection. And try to realize that there are more guys. That there is always someone better out there. And that everything will be okay. Keep yourself really busy. Do things that will take your mind off of him like sports or like, things you love to do, stuff that can make you really busy. or join a club or something...this will be good. and crying can help too because it releases all the stress and tension in your body and mind. But anyway. I am very sorry that all this has happened to you, and i hope that everthing gets better soon. you will get through this! goodluck.
