I still love my ex-girlfriend very much. She is the world to me. I have done some foolish things (never been unfaithful) like getting DUIs. I'm a couple of hundred miles away from her. She was supposed to move here with me, but I got in trouble and she left me. How do I get her back?

You do not get her back. She made that choice to leave you. Now you need to except that fact and straighten out your life. She is not the world to you. When you are with each other you share the world together. Now it is time to straighten up your world and maybe in the future you will be able to find someone new, with the new improved you. Work on yourself and continue aa if you are not already there.

hi yackfish my name is adam, my dad has answered this question for you he is 46 today.
we don't know how old you are or what experience you have in life. Your situation is reletavely simple, I've been there I know it hurts... the pain of an unrequited situation normally lasts about 6 months... but now for the turkey... if it was meant to be it will be... I know you heard this all before and this is different... there is plenty more fish in our sea... etc.. etc... this young ladty or what ever is playing you for a fool with your emotions... when you have a partner you stick by them thick and thin... you don't walk off in a huff... to every excuse.. cause it doesn't suit you... life is not a set of clothes from a thrift store.. or a gucci suit that's worn once and donated.. life is about sharing.. experiencs loving each other being together.. being a soul mate.. having children as an expression of procreation and contribution to society as a world itself.. this girl does not want you she wants to play silly litlle ego games... come and get you to beg me to come back to you on my terms.. it is stupid that sort of relationship will stay like that for the rest of your life if you go back to her.. take some good advice.. have a good job and a good career groom yourself really well... buy yourself a nice coupe sports car... get a nice apartment small is best.. kit it out feel good about yourself.. keep away from commitment until the right girl comes along.. remember if you don't love yourself.. no-one will love you properly.. it is the law of nature.. you will have plenty to choos from.. wake up everyday think james bond caviar dom perignon and a nice suit... the girls in england on dating web sites are in their 1000s preaning on the mistakes they make... one final point remember, they live longer than men... you look after yourself when you get older.. you get the pickings because there is too many of them on the shelf... they wrinkle and worry about there looks especially after too many children.. men grow old gracefully and turn into fine wines... sorry to say this but in england we have the old saying about the 5 F's find them is the first forget them is the last.. play the field my son.. the right one will come to you.. and make sure she is equal to you finanicially... car-house-money in the bank... ciao ciao... I am jon adams father.. +++++

Very simple Yackfish, Turn your life into something more positive, and forget getting the g/f back. You have enough on your plate and the last thing you need is a female. Stop the drinking and learn to stay out of trouble and get a job and keep it. Get yourself on solid ground or else you will never have anything to offer but misery.
