Try not to think about him? Try to talk to other guys, maybe one of them if right for you!
Well firstly don't rush straight back into a relationship, also try keep yourself busy as possible then maybe after a while you will start to feel better, maybe also spend some quality time with your friends.

from experience, don't see him and don't talk to him....it's this wonderful i discovered called closure...it does wonders!

But at the same time, it isn't going to be easy, when someone's been in your life for a year or so you're going to have all your recent memories with them in it.

Don't bother getting out with other guys already, learn to live with yourself, go out with the girls or just some friends and just put effort into all the other parts of your life.

If you really wanna getm over him, you need to cut all contact - phone, text, email, the lot. Then you wait. It sucks but the only thing that can make you get over someone is time. I think you'll be surprised at how soon you start to notice other guys. We've all been there!
im in the exact same position as you i was with my gf for 1 year and a half but then she broke up with me....i coped by jjust keeping myself busy for the past 2 months although im finding it hard to move on

i soooo know what ur going thro... i dont know how il move on
i spoke to a few friends about it i mean it didnt really start to affect me until after my exams because i was fully concentrating on my exams and on revision through may/june. in a way its annoying because it means im thinking about her alot right now but its also good that it didnt affect my studies. Whatever you do though dont send him an email begging him to come back because i learnt the hard way that you will make a fool of yourself :frown:

the thought did cross my mind... but i cant have him back in my life cuz it was a horrible breakup and its kinda complicated too.. wish it wasnt tho
ahh only reason why i sent an email was because it wasnt like your usual break up it was just her decision to be friends and i just had to agree (but id didnt want to)
