So its been about 6-7 months since me and my boyfriend broke up.pathetic right. We were best friends for a while and then we started dating for a few years and he told me things I always wanted to hear. But I guess that was just it, they were just things I wanted to hear, not things he meant. He always told me he meant everything he said though. I miss hearing his laugh and just the sound of his voice when he said I love you. I've thought about him everyday and just wondered if he thought about me at all. He called me a few weeks ago and we talked for a little but I haven't heard from him since.I really just miss him being one of my best friends because I told him everything. There wasn't anything I hid from him and I need someone like that because lately I've lost myself and everyone I cared about. I don't know if I should just go on without him and eventually,maybe one day find someone else or if I should try to be friends with him again because I really do miss/care/love him still and I always will just like I promised :(

Have you called him just to talk? Maybe he is waiting to see if you call him. He might be in the same position. Or he might be feeling that he does not want to ruin a friendship with romance?

I'm sorry for your situation, it's really hard to get over a love, and don't think it's pathetic that you're still not over him, he was a big part of you life probably for a long time, it's completely normal.. You are just grieving the loss... that's why a lot of people don't want to date their bestfriends (opposite sex friendships) because they are always afraid of losing the friendship..

Why don't you call him and tell him you miss his friendship, and see how he feels about being friends.. maybe it would be too painfull for either of you to see each other so soon and (yes I think 7 months is still too soon to get over a love) just communicate with him and do what you're comfortable with

I was in a relationship that ended exactly 6 months ago tomorrow and it sucks. A lot. It will get better though. Before, I confided in one person only: the girl I loved. But since we broke up, the hole that was left wasn't replaced with one person, it was filled in by many different people in various ways. You'll find people to confide in, to trust and to have fun with.

I can't say I've moved on completely yet, but I'm happy where I am now. The point remains, that everything will work out. I still don't trust anyone as much as I did her, but I tell different things to different people and that seems to have worked for me. Everyone can get lost sometimes but they always find their way. Friends are there for a reason, to be there to help when you need it, just like you are for them. I know it sucks and I'm sorry but just hang tough. You'll be fine.
