miserable

I split up with a guy a couple of weeks ago and he means the world to me, even now when I know I'm better off without him. I started uni the other day and I've been trying to make sure I mix with other people to try and take my mind off him, but it's not working. I see my new uni friends with their boyfriends and girlfriends and I just end up feeling miserable and upset. I don't know what to do, I just want to be happy again.

Clubbing's not the same anymore, I don't enjoy it because I used to have such a good time with him.

I don't speak to him anymore because I wanted a new start, free of everything that had upset me in the past. But it's not really working out.

i'd say talk to him, but that'd just make you miss him more.
as for clubbing, you can't stop coz you both did it together.
im sure if you start going a few times you may forget how it was a you and him thing.
how long were you together for?

hmm a years quite a lot, but not as long as the relationship you're likely to get into next time.
i'm really crap at giving 'get over your ex' advice, i've never been in the situation.. but just try and go out with more single people, try dating again? i don't know, just try and keep your mind off of him.
if it helps to talk to him about it, do so.
it may help you get over him knowing he's moved on?
