Not necessarily. I'm still friends with a friend I had in kindergarten, and I moved 1000 miles away.  (I'm 37 now!)

You might never forget, i still think about someone from 15 years ago. Unless they were total a__holes why forget? Keep the good parts and look for someone that has those parts in them as you move forward. Relationships and friendships come and go, but you need to be able to talk it out with someone to at least start the healing. The mind and heart suck sometimes!

You are 17 years old\nThis is not going to be your last relationship\nHonestly do you know anyone 20 years older than you who is still with the person they dated when they were 17. ! in 10,000 I'd say\nYou won't even remember you went out with this kid in 5 years time so don't sweat it there are 100 other lusty fellas out there to make you happy. Go try a few

Some people who didnt finish school can have success (money, power) in life. Maybe he wants to return later, maybe he will learn many things outside the classroom.\n\n  I dont see it as a real problem if he has another activity, a job or something productive. If he is your ex-bf, you care about him, maybe this will be an opportunity for you to re-join with him or at least talk things as friends.

Depends on if you're there with him or not.  I think that if you're not at that same school, you shouldn't worry too much about it.  You should learn to trust him.  However, if he's still associating with her even when you're not there and without your consent, then i think he's probably hiding something behind your back.  I know past relationships are hard to get over.  Occasionally i see my ex around town.  I don't trip over it.  I just give a simple "hi" or "how are you" kind of talk.  I think as long as he's not talking to her (about personal issues) then you shouldn't have to worry too much.  You have to learn to trust him.  YOu shouldn't accuse him of anything unless you have a really good reason as to why you don't trust him.  Next best thing is... Communication and trust .... it's the best. good luck. =)

Do the things you did when you were first in love with this person.  Maybe something that you haven't done for years but have fond memories of doing when you were young and inl ove.  Whether it's dancing, enjoying a candlelit dinner, surprising him/her with flowers, or strolling along the beach, just try to show this person that the love and magic and chemistry you felt 25 years ago is still there, and even stronger.

a relationship is smthg to ponder on. and if u have been 5 years together, wow that's half a decade. but try to understand smthg good abt ur relatioinship. try to work out, build urself more up, be someone u wanted to be w/ her but she didn't want that or she was not allowing u to do that. learn smthg new, like drawing, programming and so on. go have sports,  read alot of books... in no time, u will fee urself different and ur perspective abt life will change... and maybe in any of those activities u'll find sm1 who can replace her, or at least the emptiness she has created?? good luck

I would go out. I had a serious boyfriend for 3 years from ages 16-19. I was really happy but I felt the same way. I took the leap to go out and I'm glad I did. Now, my ex and I are best friends. Even though we didn't get back together, dating other guys let me realize how much happier I am that my ex and I are just friends now. I didn't realize how much happier I could be until I had some more experience. Plus, I have overcome the fear of wondering how it is to date others. And you never know, you might date around and realize what a great guy you had. He seems like he would be willing to get back together after some time. This would let you know just how happy you are with him, and you will never wonder again.

Just relax, you are only in HS you have a lot of years ahead of you.  Get through school first and see where life takes both of you.

Small town thing - when you have known the guy since kindergarten, and dated since 7th grade, you have already had a longer relationship than most people who wait until they are older!  I have known my husband for close to 20 years, we dated for 7 and got married when I was 27.

in my opinion, around 8-10 months.. or hopefully when you dont see him/her everywhere you go :) more if you're still reminiscing your times together

how long have you been dating? over a year, probably.

If the two of you were broke up at the time, there is no need to question her activities.  If you are really starting over, focus on the future, not the past.

I met the guy I'm dating on the internet. He lived 12 hours away and wanted to come and meet me after about 5 months. I was in college and my professors and friends told me to have him come to the school to meet me. That way there were plenty of other people there and they could give me their opinions of what they thought of him. Never meet anyone alone where there are no other people or anyone you know. It's been over three years since that day and we are still together.
