I don't get it...I dated this guy last summer and he moved back home from work, about six hours away....I'd fallen for him, pretty much, but we agreed to keep in touch and see what happened since he might never have been back here. We kept in touch until February, he sent me flowers for Christmas, etc, etc. Then in the beginning of March, he told me he might have a girlfriend, which is now apparently official (ie today). PLUS he's about 15 hours away now, which I think factored into his decision to finally be with her. We still talk, but I'm just having a really hard time with it and I have NO idea why. I haven't seen him in almost nine months and I just can't seem to let it go. I know I'll meet other people and I know I should just get over it, but everytime I think I'm feeling better, I just sink back into my goofy, emotional state, which is the most frustrating part. It's been SO long and we only dated for a summer! Any advice on how to get over this?? I feel like the only thing that'll make me forget about him right now is dating someone else, which just seems like it'd be a vicious cycle though and I want to be ok without him and ok being single (which I usually am....I've been single for more than three years, mostly by choice). I'm tired of being sad when I really shouldn't be....and then I get upset with myself for BEING sad, so....it's just a full range of negative emotion, lol.

True, you haven't seen him in a while, however, as far as you were concerned, you were in a relationship with him steadily up until about March, which wasn't a long time ago. So. give yourself a little while longer to get over him, but in the meantime, DO as many of the different things suggested in the 'How to Get Over Your Breakup' post. You'll see the difference when you start doing those things-- and don't let up!

I probably wouldn't talk to him for a long time, though, you need tha in order to move him out of your feelings. I know how this one hurts.

Best,
