how can I cut it off?

I was in a seven month relationship with a guy - and we were just very different people that wanted and needed different things in a relationship. The problem is we've been trying to be "just friends" but we keep on hooking up. This has been happenning for about 3 months after we broke up. I promise myself that I won't, because I know it isn't good for me, but I almost feel powerless to control myself. As a result I am very angry with myself, but I can't make myself let this go. I am addicted to the attention, so part of me feels fulfilled by the attention, but I know it has to stop. How can I resolve this and get over him for good when I am so mixed up in my emotions? This is driving me crazy.

I've been remedying this by keeping myself busy over the past few days. I basically try not to let a minute go by without doing something that will prevent me from thinking of my ex. I do belly dancing as a hobby and now I definitely put all my heart into it and it really feels great. I suggest you join groups, participate in activities, start a new hobby, exercise more, or go out with your friends more often. I find that after a good half-hour run on the elliptical trainer, I feel a thousand times better! The less time you have on your hands, the less you'll be tempted to contact your ex because you won't have the time or energy to think of him anymore. Then in several weeks, you'll probably be like, ex, what ex? :)
Good luck!
