I've been dating this guy for 2 years now, but lately we broke up due to us both not having time for the other. I'm willing to try and fix things, but when I told him this he just told me that he didn't feel that it would work out anymore. I'm completely devastated. He was my best friend, and ever since I moved for school purposes, he's been my only friend (my other buddies didn't have time for our friendship). He's been my only support system since I moved. I really want him back, even though he doesn't feel the same way about me. However, he's done it before (the leaving me, then coming back 2 months later). I just want him to see how much I love him and miss him in my life. Any advice on how to get him back, or if it's not possible, any advice on moving on?

We've all felt it, and it's horrible horrible horrible. Wanting them back is the first step of grievance. Next, is that you accept you can't and shouldn't have them. It's awful when someone can't see how great you are. But just remember, the special one WILL.

Keep yourself busy. If you feel you don't have friends, make some. Go to the gym, or some kind of class. Socialising is important, so that you're not just at home wanting to phone them.

I think you need a life that you enjoy with new friends, and activities. Then you won't have to depend on just one person to be happy.

I've been through the same thing, however mine ended with him telling me he didn't love me anymore and he wanted nothing to do with me. Anyway, moving on is the HARDEST thing to do, especially when this person becomes your everything. What you have to do to help is:

Stop contacting him. It only makes you want him more.

Go out and do stuff, keep yourself busy. It helps you stop thinking about him.

And I know this may sound bad, but go meet other guys. It helps.

Trust me, if he sees how happy you are without him, he will most likely want you back. But I would advise to just follow my steps and move on. It hurts more than anyone can imagine, but you'll get better. I promise.
