It's gonna be WAY too HARD!! i broke up with my boyfriend of 5 months and 15 days, and i still can't get over it! But i think you should try to take some time for yourself.. Try going to parties, hangouts, gatherings with more friends around or try to go to the gym.. What i'm trying to say is that you should keep busy! that's the only way that you might forget..\n\nGood Luck!!

In past experience, I've learned that the best way to get over someone is to give yourself an allotted grieving time...I say a week or less, and then start doing something to take your mind off of the situation, or at least alleviate the thought of that person. I have found one of the best things is exercise...or try something you've never done before...a new hobby or sport. It's a great way to distract you, plus you might meet some new interesting people as well.

Alright, my best advise would be to find someone else.  Not necessarily a bf but a guy friend that you can relate with and would care about if something happens just to get your mind off your ex.  You need to get over it if he has a kid cause he will never come back as much as you would like and im sorry for that but you need to put your mind other places besides on him.

You could start by reading the million other posts and responses on how to get over someone.  Most of them will tell you the same thing, the only thing that is going to make you feel better is time.  Forgiving is easy, just do it, forgetting however, is a different story.  You will never forget him or the good and bad times you shared, it's impossible without the assistance of a labotamy (sp*).  So forgive, take all the time necessary and do your best to keep your self respect and move on.

you can't i just lost my husband in oct. and it's been 5 months and you don't get over it. unless you throw yourself into something. and sometimes that doesn't even help. and of course friends mean well but they don't understand how you feel. it's up to you and you alone. you just live and take life day by day and that's all you can do....

Lean on friends and family.  Do not use drugs or alcohol (it makes it worse).  Keep yourself as busy as possible and don't be alone if you don't have to.  If you do this, you will eventually get over him.  It will take a long time, but it will work.

Just give it time. I had a situation like that happen to me. I dated a girl for 2 years and 3 days after we broke up, her best friend kinda threw herself at me. No one wants that right after a breakup. I would have dated her where she to give me some time, at least a few weeks before jumping into a relationship again. Just give him some space and be there for him, if there are feelings there it will happen. If his feelings are not the same you will have to settle for being friends. Hope this helps.

Put as much distance between the two of you as possible and try to move on.  I know it's probably the hardest thing you could possibly do right now, but the longer you let it drag on, the harder it will be.  In the end, a clean break is the best and easiest way.  Eventually you'll get over it.\n\nGood luck.

I know very well what you mean ! i think that the worst is to know that you found your second half , your soulmate but because of the circumstances you have to separate . it happened to me 6 years ago , and even thou its not that painfull as it was at the start i still spend a lot of thoughts on him and on the time we shared . will i get ever over it ? i dont know , i just know that yes , time heals a lot of pain , i dont feel pain anymore but i still think !!!! you will learn not to compare with time and besides its a bad thing to do . of course i know that its not easy at all not to but even this time will teach . ok , in the bottom of ur heart ................but i am sure that you will manage . think that there are a lot of people on this universe which felt the same!!! i wish u luck and all the best !!!!

No matter what anyone tries telling you.. its always going to be hard to get over someone after being with them for six years. But I think that your best bet is just to try and go out to do things that will get him off of your mind. Spend as much time with your friends as you can... keep busy! No matter what you do it will always hurt though. You just have to be strong and not give in to him if he does start to call.. because thats just letting him know that he can use you over and over. Dont let him know you're bothered by it. I wish you the best of luck and I hope that everything goes in your favor.

If you want to get over your ex-fiance, you need to take affirmative action that will gradually take him out of your mind and allow you to start your life again. I recommend the following:\n\n1. Spend more time hanging out with your friends and less time alone. Friends, as well as family can be a great support when you are in pain.\n2. Get more deeply involved in your hobbies and interests.\n3. If your ex-fiance gave you an engagement ring, you do not need that reminder.....give it or throw it away. And do the same with any gifts he gave to you.\n4. Destroy or throw out any pictures you have of the two of you together.\n5. When you feel ready, start to date again.\n\nIn a nutshell, you need to start to purge your ex-fiance from your mind. It will be hard at first but, little by little, you will think about him less and less. Eventually, he will be a distant memory and you can have your own life back again.

You need to move on. You can't get over your ex because you keep listening to the love songs that you listened to when you were with him. You need to realize that it is over and tell yourself that you will never be with him again. Listen to some different music. Music that sings about a women getting out of a bad relationship and moving on with their lives. It won't be easy. It will take some time but, eventually you will get over him and find someone else to love. Maybe when you are over him, you can become friends and that spark might rekindle and you will get him back. But, for now except that it is over. Allow yourself to get over him.

It takes time to get over a love relationship.  Some people say that it takes half the time you were involved to get over it.  The best thing is to just talk it out with friends, or maybe a professional counselor.  It's a process, getting over a broken heart, not an event.  It's not something that you just wake up the next day and say, "I'm over it".  I found getting involved with new friends, or interests took my mind away from my sadness.  \nI'm sorry to hear that you are hurting, I hope that you can find some support and distraction soon.  It won't always be like this.  Some day in the future you will look back at this and realize that it wasn't a good relationship for you.

It just takes time to move on. You need to let it go. I had the same problem once. I finaly got over him when I found someone else that I knew was better for me. But beware rebound relationsips don't work either. I'd say 5 months is long enough to linger over a relationship that was as short as yours. Find someone new and MOVE ON!!!
