That is hard to say. If you were really mean to her, she may never see the relationship as being a positive one. That is the price you pay when you mistreat people. It's really best to just leave her alone and let her have a new happy life.

If you change your ways and prove to her that you have, she may see you in a positive way in the future. Keep in mind, this does not mean that she will get back together with you, it just means that in the future her hard feelings towards you may diminish.Quote:

Keep up with your therapy, and most of all focus on yourself!!! You, and making yourself better, are the most important right now.
Yea I completely understand that, since she goes to a separate college, she probably never hears about me or knows what's going on... is she going to say to her herself one day, "wow i havent to him in a while" and call me? Im just concerned that I'm going to be waiting a long time.Quote:

OK fine... thanks for your help.
I almost forgot, the main reason I can't get over her is because I would lean on her for everything, she kept me going and when she left I collapsed. Is it right to date a new girl for the soul purpose of getting over her or should I really take this time to learn how to stand on my own two feet and go through the low self esteem and depression?Quote:

That's what I figured, good idea, I think that is what my ex is doing... her new boyfriend is really helping her forget about meQuote:

Its as if you have completely forgotten how to do anything for yourself because you are used to that other person.Quote:

That's amazing, my dad told me the same thing... I felt good about myself because I was with her. Nobody could hurt, except where I left myself the most vunerable, which was the part of my heart reserved for her and it was a huge chunk. Sounds like a good plan and I think I need to let it go and have time for myself for at least a couple months.Quote:

If it's good memories, I don't see a problem with it.
If it's bad memories or something that should be left in the past, then I'd say it's not worth bringing up again.
