so i dated this guy for about 2 years.. i was in love with him. about 7 months ago he broke up with me. i was obviuosly crushed ive never been through more pain in my life! after we broke up we would still talk and he told me he still had a lot of feelings for me but he didnt know if he wanted to be with me or not. just about 2 months ago he told me he still LOVED me, but he actually just went away to college and he said he didnt know if it would work being an hour away. well about a month ago he got a girlfriend. it shocked me so much because we had still been talking and he told me he still loved me about 3 weeks before he started dating this girl. and the even bigger shocker was that it wasnt even somebody from his college, it was a girl from my town! it confused me, i cried really hard abuot it because why would he date her but he couldnt date me?! obviously i'm extremly angry about the situation and i hate him. i do. but for some reason my feelings are still here. i think about him all the time, and i dont want him i really dont beacuse he makes me so mad that he kept me hanging on for 7months for nothing, but hes still on my mind all the damn time! am i ever going to get over this? not being cocky but im a really pretty girl, and i meet a lot of guys but i havent been interested in any of them. its like this whole situation has a chain on me and i cant get out of it! im soo overtaken by it. i go out all the damn time, but in the end its all on my mind. its been a month and its still here lingering.. i just want help with how to get this off my mind, besides "go out" or "date somebody else" because i do go out, and i wish i could date somebody but im not interested in anyone else its nuts!

TRF answered Friday February 6 2009, 3:34 pm: I am going through the exact same thing! I know exactly how you feel, What I had to do it stop all contact with him and just try to continue to what you are doing. The pain may not go away right away but sooner than you think it will be easier. The reason you don't like anyone is maybe because your not ready to start dating again. Just try having fun and before you know it, it will get easier, maybe not fully over it, but it will be easier. You just have to be patient and give it time...
