Still not over him...

It's been over 2 years since we broke up...things were a drag, and also, it was a long distance relationship...somehow, I'm still not over him...I hate the fact that I facebook stalk him at times, only to see what's happening in his life..

We don't talk anymore because of his current girlfriend, who found out a few months ago that we were still in touch...she realized that I still love him and fought with me for contacting him...she was right on her part, I'll not blame her...although, talking to him always makes me feel better...I miss him...

I haven't been into any relationship ever since the break-up...two guys did ask me out last year, but I rejected it...one of them being my best friend, who I kinda liked, but never expressed my feelings to...

I think most people still do over ex's (even if they are in a relationship afterwards), so don't worry.

Maybe delete him as a friend or something, you need some sort of closure...
In my opinion there's no such thing as getting over someone you're close to, you just learn to forget or ignore the feelings. Like the above post said, try and avoid all contact with him, and try socialising with other people loads. You'll soon forget.
All from my experience, doesn't mean it's right.

It's common. Only decent cure is new love.

From past experience, I know how you're feeling. It took me a year and a half to get over my first boyfriend (which was long distance, too). Right, what you need to do is remove him from Facebook (I know this is very very hard to do, but I can't tell you enough how much it helps after the first week or two after you've removed him), go out with your friends to make new memories, and take up a new hobby or interest. Also, if you get offered to go out on a date, do it! It'll be fun, and you start to open up to the idea of seeing new people. You can't keep rejecting people for the rest of your life.

Also, ask yourself if you do actually have feelings for him, or if it's actually just feelings for the memories you created with him. Often it's the latter. Getting rid of emotional attachments to memories makes a HUGE difference.

Anyways, you'll get there eventually. And if you ever want to talk to somebody who's been in the same boat, feel free to drop me a message.

Dwell on it as much as you like, you're only hurting yourself.

Doesn't matter if you're over him or not, he's over you.

I feel like that sometimes relapsing into past feelings even though I broke off the relationship myself.

There are always thoughts of what could have been, but I tell myself this when I think about it, You broke up for a reason, It will never be the same and after 2 years you are both dramatically different.

My ex boyfriend lives only a street away, and although I am in a relationship now I still get these urges to run over there and fall into his arms. It is crazy but you are not the only one.
