    On your days off you hit the gym and you can go after work too. That's what I do.

    I don't really want to do things like that cause it makes me feel like I'm doing it because of someone else

    Ok... then take a college course... do something new to keep you entertained! Something that betters you at the same time! Gym, school and outdoor activities. These are all things I am doing. It's hard to push yourself but we can do it!

    A walk will just give me time to reflect on her and what I haven't got anymore won't it

    Physical exercise will increase your endorphine levels and make you feel better.

    You have to make the choice to work to get over her,and help yourself.
    Do you really want to be stuck in this situation another couple of months down the road?

    No I don't but months ago I decided I didn't want to get botherd and upset by her and tried to move on but haven't been able to do it and I have tried doing a lot of thing that people suggest

    Then keep trying.
    What we suggest here works.
    I know it does-been there-done that.
    You have to keep at it and not allow yourself to fall into the black holes

    It takes time to recover from a break up,are you been busy in your life?

    There is one startling truth about your break up that maybe you have not quite yet come to terms with... its over... you are 'the one',no one can make you happy,only you,there is no quick fix to a broken heart.

    The first thing on your list of why its over should be... 1. she did not want you.

    2. she did not want a future with you.

    Stop dwelling on the past,look towards your future,set goals for yourself,and remember that she was just not the right person for you.

    I can make myself happy but she is always on my mind so I can't help but dwell on the past

    Keep occupied doing things for yourself, hanging out with friends etc.

    I don't think you stop thinking about them that quick, just get used to dealing with it and eventually it will pass

    Its not a competition
    Its better to wait till your ready so you can have something meaninful rather than a rebound
