Well, I just found out that the ex had a date! It's only been a month, WTF? I guess he is REALLY over me, I just had to go in the bathroom and vomit when I found out. I hate this...I swear it feels as if I will never get over it!

Generally speaking, men tend to "process" things differently than we do. Oftentimes, they'll suppress whatever they're feeling after a break-up by quickly moving on to someone else. In your situation, I don't think it necessarily means he sees himself being with the new girl forever or that she's "the one." Since he hooked up with her on the rebound, it is very likely that the whole thing will be rather short-lived.

Nevertheless, now is the time for you to focus on living and doing the things that bring you joy. Do whatever it takes to get your mind off of him. It will do wonders in helping to engage the healing process and enable you to see that he's just ONE guy among MANY men who are compatible for you.

Hang in there!
