This is my first first time posting a message here... but here it goes...
I broke up with my boyfriend of 2 years about 2 months ago. it's been 2 months and yet it still hurts... It's hard for me to talk to friends because my ex and i are friends with same group of people. My ex is a private person so I don't want to vent my feelings to those friends... I know i should keep myself busy but right now i'm studying for a BIG exam that my main job right now is to study. But it's so hard for me to focus and study right now... i have been trying to stay strong and positive and now it's hard for me to even try anymore... I feel like i'm all alone...

I just broke up with my boyfriend of 2.5 years on Thursday, the 11th. It's been pretty hard for me. I really hope I won't feel this bad in 2 months. He just sent his last email ever just a few moments ago, and it felt like my heart dropped through the floor, now that I know that it's over, completely, for good. I guess it takes a lot of time to get over such a huge part of your life. It's so fresh for me, I'm sorry I don't have any advice to give you. Just know, "This too shall pass".

If you don't feel you have very many people you can feely vent to, come to this board and vent all you want. I felt like my friends were tired of hearing it and so I came here and it has really helped me. There is very good support and advice here.

My breakup has been about 2 months also, and I could be doing a lot better. We also dated for 2 years. It just takes a while. My ex has continued to contact me, which has slowed my healing process down considerably. But I try to stay busy and focus on myself and what I need. Have been reading self-help books and exercizing more. Hang in there.
