My girlfriend dumped me and I'm ruined
My girlfriend of 1.5 years dumped me. It's been a month but I still cry everyday. I miss her so much. She said she hadn't been happy for a long time, yet we had so many good times. We lived together, and probably moved int together too soon. That probably hurt our relationship. She says she needs space and wants to see other people and is conflicted. When I was moving out she promised to help me move and she flaked on me. Then, I, being the fool in love that I am, took a half day off work to help her move and stayed up until 12 am helping her assemble her IKEA bed. She promised me we could spend the next day together but then she lied to me, telling me that she had to work late, and instead went partying with her friends for Cinco de Mayo. Anyway, the point is I'm a wreck. I want her back so badly. She continues to contact me when it is convenient for her. She wants to see me when it is convenient for her. I know what she is doing. She is using me as a crutch to get her through until her next relationship. I have seen her do it before. I don't know how to get over her. I don't know how not to call her. I did well for a couple of days but then this morning felt overwhelmed with grief and I broke down and called her. She was annoyed because she was at a hotel in L.A. where she had been partying with her girlfriends (she went there to visit a girlfriend that moved).
How do I get over her? How do I get her out of my mind? How do I summon the strength to not call her? How do I convince myself that I will meet somebody as intelligent and attractive as her? How do I let her go? How do I stop grieving? How do I cope with this loneliness that I'm feeling inside? How do I deal with the emptiness? How do I say no when she wants to see me even though I want to see her so badly? Can I win her back?
