Hi, my girlfriend and I had been dating for almost 2 months when she left me for another guy and I still love her and I want her back but it hurts so much to see her go.

Would anybody be able to give me some sdvice on how to get over the break-up and move on?

Thanks

Well, the question is would you want to get back with her, she dumped you for someone else. Think about that real hard, 2 months, perhaps your infactuated with her, and you are mistaking it for love. As I always say if someone wants to be with you nothing can keep them away... These next few days will be hard but you will begin to get better.. Think of it as her loss, and make sure not to keep yourself on standby, surround yourself around friends, go out, do something productive, don't contact her, delete her numbers, if it help, remove everything that reminds you of her. I would suggest you take this time and focus on yourself... when someone usually leaves for someone else it has nothing to do with you but everything to do with her needs, that was a selfish move, but it happens to the best of us then they realize they made a mistake and sometimes they come back and sometimes they don't but by her doing this the trust level has already been ruined.. If you were to get back with her you would be walking on eggshells... THink about it..

Yeah it certainly doesn't sound like love. 2 months into a relationship, the other cheats and you still want them. That sounds like complete infatuation. You will get over it. Even if it's on your own. I mean some people get divorced after 10 years and get through it alone. 2 months is a relative blink of an eye compared to that. After two months you knew very little of her and lo and behold you came to find she is a cheater. So now you got to know the real her, not the her that's in your head. What you need to do is go out and "grow your life". That means get strong enough where if by a girl after 2 months breaks up with you, you never say again "I can't get over her on my own". You do that by sticking with a game plan. Start working out, vigorously if you have to. Start some hobbies, make some friends, go and volunteer your time at a homeless shelter or for the environment. Read a bit about the psychology of relationships. Get yourself strong and smart and things like this will be more easily traversed.

Or the girl was in a rebound relation, and now her ex has come back. That doesn't make her a cheater. But that makes our guy a fool. He was into her so soon and without a minimum of information about his ex.

One step in getting over a break up, is remember all the BAD times, and you soon won't want to be back with her. Although... two months, probably not many bad times squeezed in there.

schwartzyms
Nov 18, 2007, 07:20 AM
There really weren't many bad times, we do have a bit of distance between us and we didn't get to see each other all the time... she said she left me for the other guy because she missed me and the new guy she met(which is her friends brother) reminded her of me... getting over this break-up has been very hard, I'm not a person that cries a lot and I have found myself crying every night and every morning, its not like soft crying its more along the line of quietly cryuing like a baby.

Well you are both still really young with your whole lives in front of you. You really just need to let her go at this point. If you start contacting her you are not only hanging on to false hope but you will also push her away. You see this is what happens , when you push they pull away.

They all say "I love you" And look I'm sure she cares for you a lot , BUT she has made her decision , respect that and let her go. If she really "loves you" she will come back. But don't put your life on hold waiting for her. If she knows you will always be there for her it just makes it easier for her to explore other avenues , which is what she is doing.

Listen , don't beat yourself up about it , what your feeling is perfectly normal when someone breaks up with you. Read all the other posts on this forum and you will see you are not alone.

Time is a great healer , and anytime your feeling down just get on here and vent. There are always people willing to listen and give you advice. Important thing for you is YOU , just remember that. So don't worry about what she is doing or what she is thinking , concentrate on yourself.

Go out and be with friends etc. and before you know it you will be on the road to recovery. But that won't happen until you LET GO.

How I envy you and the fact it was only 2 months with this girl. I have a similar story, but we were almost a year and she left me for someone else. She said all the 'im not sure what I want' and also said she thought she wanted to come back to me, but alas. We lived together as well so man did it suck (and still sucks 3+ months later).

Find comfort in the fact that you will be able to get over her, and more quick than most of the people posting here. There is no way you actually 'knew' this girl after only 2 months of dating, and she is showing her true side now.

Best way to help her make her decision, is disappearing. We usually want back what we have lost.

you were friends for 4 years, and it seems like the friendship worked better, don't you think so? I can imagine, you forgot the part "friends too" in the relation, and you went into it too seriously and a little bit more dependent on her. Now, what is a relation at all? Is a more deeper friendship, + the element intimacy. But the base is the friendship. And that's how should have reacted in the relation. Friendship, romance, intimacy, fun=relation.

The thing is that you are not used to lose and you are feeling lonely. Yes, you care, we all care about someone, even about our friends. And you can care of her, also as a friend, a really good friend. Why don't you accept it?

madaman
Nov 20, 2007, 01:28 PM
You might have to accept the fact that she doesn't want anything more than friendship with you. Do you want to risk losing that to push the dating? Because you will lose the friendship (if its not gone already). It could also make it 10x more awkward if you have mutual friends.

As nice as it would be, you can't make someone like you or want to be with you. Your initial question was for advice on how to move on and get over the breakup, but it really doesn't seem like that is your goal.

I can guarantee you are going to be friends with her, because you still have some hopes, you can make it work. YOU can't make it work, whatever you do. Try to tell yourself this! You can do nothing, but take care of yourself. If she will be free someday, and in the same time have some crushes on you (here is your part of helping her to got the crushes), she may come to you. Otherwise, it will be like that, friends. Can you deal with it ? Being friends, but without false hopes ? I tell you a little story of mine. Yes, it may happen, but depends. Before 7 years I told a girl-friend of mine, my hidden feelings toward her, but in somehow I knew it won't work, as it was LDR and there were not so much ways of contact. Anyway, it didn't worked out, but we still remained friendly, and after I came back we spoke to each other. 1 year went by, and now was her turn. She began to like me, but in the same time was her turn to go out of town. Anyway, its another story that. Out of sudden, she even sent me a message one night (after 4 years my proposition), telling me she liked me and so on... booooo. Anyway, we came in relation, but in somehow it was not meant to be. Anyway. I was just saying that yes, it may work, but it depends on them, not you. They go, and they come, you just can't do nothgin but move on with your own life.

Well, it was a LDR, and it didn't worked out. Anyway, my point was that, being friendly, you leave them a door open, if they change their mind someday (and someday means even years). Buddy, when they want out, they want out. You can't do nothing. And you shouldn't. Just because its not worth. They are the one who goes out, sometimes even without a fight. And if they come back, that's your turn to accept them. Some of them come because they are free. Some of them come because they just lost someone else, and you are the one who may comfort their hurted feelings (they use you as a rebound). But they rarely come back because they love you! Common, someone who loves you, and respects you, and knows you are worth, etc, its not going to leave you like that!

I'm not saying its bad or good. Being friends or friendly, is what it is. You act like with a friend. But I say don't be there for her all the time. You have a life too, right ? So take some responsabilities, and make your life a priority now, not her! You have to go to work, you go. Don't stay without doing things, or talk to her every day, because she needs your company (mostly this is what you will think you have to do). She had your company, she didn't wanted that. Maybe because you were too attached to her and all the time for her there, and that's boring sometimes. So act normally, like with a friend. Also remember that, you don't need her company. You may want or like her company, but not need it. You have to act independent!

Buddy, you are not exclusive anymore! Remember it to you. You have to do something without her! I know, its comfort to talk to an ex, cause they know you better than the others, but you have broken with each other. If she needs your company, she may still want more of you, and the less you give, the more she asks for your company. So, I say, do things independently, without her in it. I don't know what, but go to gym, go dating, do what single people do!

Hi Schwartz
Well you say you are still trying to get over the pain of losing her , therefore I would suggest not contacting her at the moment. Not only does she know you will be there as a fallback but you will not move on. You see you will take everything she says to you out of context and think all of these great things whenever she says nice things.

So therefore while you are probably making her feel less guilty about dumping you because you are showing her you are still there for her you are stuck at square 1 and not moving on.

Go No contact to heal yourself , then when you have healed and are not emotionally tied to her you can decide whether you still want to talk to her.

Did you forgot yourself? You were sad, and cried, because she left you like that. Get some respect for you, and stop being a wuss! Stop acting like a big brother to her, you have your own dignity too! And you are a human being too. She should have known this, before she dumped you! Now, go to the NC, and let her think with her own mind on what's going on.

He sounds as a wuss to me buddy, and in somehow, I can put myself in the shoes of his ex. You know, being there every time, without a challenge, and everything. That's boring, I have to say. And sometimes, this helps the dumper to get out of the relation, from that too much attention and boring. But sometimes, the dumper, because is afraid of staying alone, finds someone else, and than dumps the old one. Its not fair, but its human.

GOOD!! So you see where we are coming from. Look after yourself FIRST. She dumped you and has made you feel like crap , so don't hold her on this pedestal and think she is some sort of goddess. Go NC and she might just realise that you aren't a wuss and you can look after yourself without her. Believe me women like men who are strong. That way too you won't lose your dignity and she will see you in a much better light in the future if you were ever to get back together.

There are lots of hard things about a break up , it's not easy and no one will tell you it is. But everyone goes through it at some stage in their lives , but we all get through it. Just make sure you learn the lessons from it for your next relationship/s. Like I said yesterday you are still young , you have your whole life in front of you. And when you meet your next GF and are happy you will look back on this and realise how silly it all was and what a waste of energy to feel like you do now. It's your choice , you decide how you feel , don't let someone who has mistreated you control your emotions. And yes I know its easier said than done but YOU have the power , no one else.

One more thing, is it normal to write stuff like this after a break-up?

These I Wrote:
1) I fell in love with somebody who made me feel special, made me happy, but only to see it crash down to ashes, and I fell down, down into a dark and lonely puddle, unaware of the people who care, there in that puddle I sat and cried, hurt, alone and scared for what may be in store for me.

2) I sit here alone in my bed wondering why this hurtful thing happened to me, then I realize, why should I be the one broken up over this when she first said those 3 hurtful words "I Love You", she was the one who said "I want to be with you forever", but it's over now, no more will I love her, no more, I must stop thinking these dreadful thoughts of love, amd forget her, forget this time of pain and see, yes see all those who care for me.

3) Here, here I am crying over you, just as you wanted, inflict the pain on me, go ahead do it, I'll just ignore you, as you did to me, until you realize what you lost in me.

My point being the things you are writing are perfectly normal , in fact what you should do is write down your feelings each day in a journal , you will be able to see how you are progressing. Believe me when you look back on it after a few weeks/months you really start to realise how much you are progressing.

Doesn't mean anything , in fact hopefully for your healing process that's what happens , because even if it might be hard at the start it will make the healing process shorter , just concentrate on YOU and don't worry about what she is thinking or what she is doing. It's out of your control.

Hi, my girlfriend and I had been dating for almost 2 months when she left me for another guy and i still love her and i want her back but it hurts so much to see her go.

Would anybody be able to give me some sdvice on how to get over the break-up and move on?

Thanks
You know what man, you shouldn't anticipate getting her back soon. But be sure in the long run-if you rearly care. It won't be easy! the fact that she left for someone else implies that she found something in that guy that fasinate her that is sadly larking in you. You need to know what it is learn it and master it better than that person. Evidence this chartacter to her indirectly. For know forget your pain and just be friends with her care for her and she will learn how to fall in love with you again. SURELY YOU CAN DO THAT,A HALF WIT CAN

I broke up with a long term boyfriend, I cried all the time, if a song came on the radio that reminded me of him id get so upset. But I do believe that everything happens for a reason and I met someone new, maybe it was fate or something that I had to go through the break up to find that special person. I would advise you to fill your day with things to do, if your mind is always occupied then you won't have time to think about this girl xxxx

I don't believe in fate. Im someone who believes in "we, humans, are made to make our fate the way we want. it all depends the way we act". As for you, maybe your boyfriend was the bad one, maybe you were the bad one, or maybe there was no bad side, but your lifes were just apart and they crossed just for a couple of minutes in this 1 hour long life.

Do you hate this ex of yours? Or you still like her to the point to consider her to be with you again?? Why are you going NC? You may think she calls you, because as someone here said "she cares about you, but as a friend". COMMON!

Read this, and look at my posts about this topic "NC, friends or Friendly". There are a lot of things to be debatet, but as I still don't see any debate, I still believe it's the best way to act with an ex. Stop being childish, disrespecting her, because she left you. She may had her own reasons for leaving you. And the way you talk to us, that reason was because you were a wuss to her.

Don't be offended if I called you wuss. You were, in some point during the relation. We all have been. And we all have been dumped. Is the moment when we don't take care anymore of our masculity, how to act around the woman, how to be the male, keep the attraction, the spark, etc. I was in your shoes. It just doesn't work that way. Lets make a question here. How is it possible, that every guy here, who acted just like me and you, has been dumped from their ex??

I'm not offended by "wuss" at all, I was just wanted to know...

Yea, probably like you said in your other post that you told me to read we lost the "spark", or we just became unaware of our needs and just focused on her which I've realized is a very dumb and pathetic thing to do, to stop caring about yourself is just like overdosing on painkillers or something, just without the deathly consequences

I can't say anything else. I just say read the whole posts of mine. There are answers of what to do. If they work or not, its another thing. But in the same time, NC won't bring you anything new, nor the friendship. Friendly, makes a difference.

No you didn't. You just can't lose the feelings for someone during the night, or as you say, during the last 3-4 days. Common, you were the one who came here like crying and asked us how to move on, and get over the breakup. Helloooo. Don't be so superficial. You know how you feel deep down. Anyway, do what you think its best to do, but I say, reconsider the whole thing. She is still there, waiting for a call.

No contact is to heal YOU , not make her want you back. I believe as do many others that if you still want to be with her in a relationship (and don't kid yourself) you can't be friends with her right now. When you have healed and no longer want her as a GF sure then you can be friends. But if you be friends while you still want her you will read all sorts of things into what she says and her actions , this only gives you false hope.

I no longer want her as my girlfriend, I'm done with that, I can't take it anymore so I just let it go and deep down I just don't feel that way anymore, ever since this break up I've taken a different aspect to life and I've noticed that I like different kinds of music, different things its just an amazing feeling and I'm happy because I'm accomplishing all of this without her and I'm no longer mentally attatched, I still don't know if I should end the NC today or end it tomorrow, because I feel healed and I'm not kidding myself

That's what I said to him. It looks more like angry than healing. I don't know, but doesn't sound good. I guess he found someone else, as an emotional flow. I don't know, but in 5 days you can't heal yourself.
