Does it ever get any better?
| Wed, 03-14-2007 - 4:39pm |
It has been three weeks since I've seen my ex. He and I went off of our "break" and started a casual thing. Since we started that casual thing... he has called me twice in two weeks. He IMs me every once and awhile. I've asked him to hang out three times and he has canceled everytime. I'm trying not to contact him... Hetox. I've decided to collect myself and move on. I miss him soooo much though. I cry everyday about it. I feel like its never going to stop. It makes me sick thinking about being with someone else. I feel like emotionally... Im drowning. It consumes my thoughts. Does anyone have any good suggestions about what works for moving on? I would really appreciate it.

Hi lindseyloo,
Here's some ideas that have worked for others:
How To Get Over Your Breakup
here's what works for me:
(1) making plans to go out for a night on the town with a friend or two and then going shopping for something i'll look uber hot in.
(2) going for a long walk and talking to myself on this long walk, letting myself piece through exactly WHY i'm feeling what i feel.
(3) reminding myself what i have that's really good - my job, my health, a decent sense of humor
(4) reading these boards
(5) thinking of new activities to try or organizations to join
(6) watching any of the following - Under the Tuscan Sun, Singles, Lost in Translation, Amelie, or Anchorman (fav quote from the latter - "I'm trapped in a glass case of emotion!!!!!" he, he....exactly).
(7) giving myself permission to feel like crap if i have to, and realizing it will pass.
good luck and take care of yourself! :)
