How do you go on living...

after you break up with someone you've been madly in love with for years?

He's such a big part of my life, many milestones like my graduation were shared with him, and I have so many memories with him. I don't know where to start, everything reminds me of him, I'm not sure what to do with his stuff, we have mutual friends, it's going to be so hard to move on. Any advice would be a great help, thanks.

I know it is hard. That person has become an important part of your life. Most of us on this board have been through it and are still going through it. My suggestion is to read the book Its Called A Breakup Becacuse its Broken. It will really help you face the fact that your relationship is over. You'll still have pain, but the book is a huge help in dealing with it all!

Good luck to you!

Welcome to the board c_w_w_o_a,


I second the book - It's Called a Breakup because it's Broken.
