Help me get over my ex?

I have tried my best to get over my ex-girlfriend of 7years that has just left me and find it extremely difficult. I keep calling her and she even cries over the phone as to how difficult it is for her but that she loves someone else now.

We still both cry over this as it was only three days ago that she told me. I just cannot picture myself sleeping with someone else and actually getting into a long and meaningful relationship. She’s told me there’s no way to accept me even if her new found love does not work out. Please help me get over this nastiness. She’s not the best from the pick but I think I’m too comfortable with her and that’s a very big problem for me.

    I always found that remembering all the bad things about someone or the relationship helped me get over it faster. I know it sounds negative but if you just remember the good things, then you will keep pining to be with her.

    Also, keep yourself busy - work, friends, family, hobbies.

    Stop talking to her! She is just putting salt in the wound! If she has broken up with you, then cut off communication unless she wants to get back together (which she has said she doesn't).

    Take some time to get yourself together & when you feel ready to date again, you will know it & go from there.

    We've all been there & the pain goes away with time.

    i know it is hard, and seven years is alot but you said she is not the best from the pick and you need to love yourself more and take care of you and someone will come along. she left you for someone else but she cries on the phone to you, so if she loves you so much and she is crying why leave and put you through this. you need to do fun things even if it's getting a good book and sitting in a quite room with some soft music and lunch and enjoy yourself. think of things that make you happy and do it for you. she has someone else do you really think she is thinking of you unless she is on the phone with you. she is enjoying herself with the other guy, you will find someone new and that will consider and appreciate you, in the meantime appreciate yourself, you sound like a nice guy. GOOD LUCK

    That is very true because I just got out of a similar situation. My ex doesn't want to talk to me anymore because I broke his heart. He also said he can't be with anyone anymore and tried his best to avoid me. I was the bad one but I am also regretting because the new found love didn't workout. But he already went on a trip. I would suggest leaving the place for a while, the change of environment gives you a different outlook.

    Its only three days it takes time theres nothing you could really do except giving time

    But stop calling her. Talking to her and hearing her voice is probaly just gonna hurt more. Being away from her and not talking to her will help even though it may not seem like it at first it will help you start to move on

    damn...

    write down a list of all the things you hate about her... read it a lot...

    stop talking to her and crying to her. it's obvious that the broad does not care about your feelings. leave her alone for a while... at least until your strong enough to look at her and think about all the negatives. it's a new year so get ready for a new you. there will be another girl and it may take time for you to trust her, but when you do it'll be worth while. GOOD LUCK!

    lots of time, don't contact her-it'll only make things harder for you. You can't picture yourself with anyone else because you were dedicated to the relationship which will work great when you have someone who deserves that dedication. Don't jump into a rebound just give yourself time

    it will take a while to let her go but eventually you will. just dont always run to her and call her if she is happily with someone else. i konw it is hard at first but eventually it will get easier. you just have to rebuild your confidence and try casual dating not getting into another long relationship. and causal dating generally helps because if you find someone else that you have intrest in and you tend to stray away from the thought of getting back with ur ex.

    hope this helped!

  • only thing that heals the heart..is time...really thats something that you hate to hear (atleast I hated to hear that), but you must make your life as busy as you can..voulenteer..work more hours...hang out with other single friends...adopt a dog, find a hobby...do anything to keep your mind off of her..and if you can't the only thing you could do is move away...it hurst now..but it WILL get better I promise you that...good luck

    The only way to get over her is to cut off all communication, and it will get better as time goes on. If communication is still happening, you will never get over her.

    Why can't she "accept" you? You don't give enough details for anything really.

    Maybe you need to stop talking to her for a while, and heal and then move on.
