My ex is with someone else

I went on her Facebook(first time in weeks) and theres a photo of her and a guy and he's kissing her. I'm gutted. I'm trying so hard to get over her(split up for five months) and she's already replaced me.

It's been 5 months move on.
You've broken up with her, so you cant expect her to stay single forever. Try and get to know other girls and hopefully that'll take your mind off her.

I'm not trying to be mean or anything but from your reaction from seeing her move on so quickly it seems you liked her more than she liked you. You should try and move on too now. Its not going to be easy but if you sit around moping over this one girl, how are you going to meet anyone new

For me the best way to get over someone is too find someone else. Use the fact shes already moved on to help move yourself on to show you're past it.

she doesn't even have the decency to remain celibate for the rest of her life? what a bitch!

seriously though, it does hurt when that happens. I was a bit gutted when my ex got a new boyfriend (that was under a month after we broke up however) but in the end it had to happen eventually. just forget about it and move on.

I know she was bound to be with someone else, but it still hurts.
It will hurt. It will also heal with time buddy. Took me a long time to get o er a relationship that went catastrophically wrong but I did get back on my feet. Best thing to suggest really is that you get out and love your life instead of dwelling upon it. Just because she was someone important to you doesn't mean she was THE ONE. So get out there, enjoy meeting new people and wait for something good to come along when you least expect it.

All the best.

Not trying to be harsh but it wasn't the best move to be checking her facebook. I'd advise you don't check it again.
Im sorry dude, it hurts but given time it will get better.

Just take it a day at a time

As others have said, it heals with time, and stop checking her Facebook or finding out anything about her. Get out there and make improvements to your life. One day you will wonder why you cared
it's always weird to see, even if you have been broken up for a while. I felt the same, very strange, although I do echo what everybody else is saying... get yourself out there and meet a few new people, enjoy yourself with your friends, you'll soon find yourself forgetting about everything xoxox
Hide her from your Facebook news feed, or if you find it hard to stop yourself from checking her profile, perhaps remove her?

It sounds a little harsh, but you need to think what is best for you. Cutting contact makes it a lot easier to move on and if you both still want to be friends then you can always gain contact and friendship again in the future.

At the moment seeing updates of your ex's life with her new partner will only make you feel worse and can't help in any way. Make sure you go out and socialise, perhaps meet with some old friends or go out and meet some new people.

It can take a lot of time to 'get over someone', but you will eventually.

Dude, she's not worth it ... move on ...
Ugh I remember the horrible feeling seeing my ex change his status to 'in a relationship' just weeks after he had been constantly texting me wanting to meet up. Best to delete, block and move on OP.

Delete her from your life - like literally.

What you are feeling is natural.

It depends if you both want to be friends I suppose, but friendship can't be forced.
