    Get Over Ex And Meeting Someone Else.
    First and foremost I would like to thank all of you who have helped in me through this tough time... These forums are a blessing in disguise...

    I dated my exgf for 2.5 years.. broken up for 4 months .first love, do anything to get her back... etc etc... I do occasionally run into her by accident so that kind of prolonged my healing.

    But one morning I woke up, I had a completely different view on everything regarding me and my ex... I simply accepted the fact that she's gone and I'm glad she's enjoying her life and being 'happy' as she puts it. I still care, but I just didn't really care anymore, its life... and yesterday morning, I ran into her on campus, and just smiled and said 'hi' and kept walking she starts to talk to me, but I told her that I'm late for class(which was true)... and she ended up txting me that night...

    So the same day Im at school(last year of college) just finishing my project in the library, and I get a smile from this incredibly cute girl... I smile back to be nice. But something pushed me to go talk to her... We ended up talking for about 45 minutes before I had to go back to class... I had no intention to get her number or anything(maybe because I felt it was too soon to date, meet people, have relationships etc)... but she ended up asking for my number and email. :)... such a confidence boost after being heartbroke.

    For some awful reason, after the break up I put my ex on such a high pedastal... but after talking to someone else and connecting right away, I just thought how stupid I was and how honestly, me and my ex weren't really as good as I remembered... But Im 98.9999% healed, and her power over me has vanish... im me again :)

    For all you people struggling to get through this tough time/no contact/etc(I never thought I would)... just know that one day, eventually. Things will be okay... you WILL be happy again... I never thought'd id get through, but eventually you will... praying also helps, believe me...

    So you, its always darkest before the sun comes up... and right now,to me, it's a beautiful morning... and take comfort knowing that the sun rises everyday.

    Its been a day and this girl hasn't contact me... but I'm hoping she does soon, because I really do regret not asking for her phone number now, hahaha... You people think she will contact me after SHE asked for my contact info? I've always been the one that asked for the numbers, not the other way around.


    Thank You AMHD very much...

    She'll contact you. Give it a few days or a week. She doesn't want to seem desperate. :)

    Congrats on moving on. Glad to hear you cleared the hump!

    Its good you have crossed back into the healthy world, and even can have feelings again.

    Don't sweat if the new girl calls, or not, as she is hardly the only cutie walking around.

    Get on with it! If she doesn't call, sorry to be the commoner - there's plenty more girls on planet. Ive started to be a firm believer in realism after a series of bad women experiences. So if doesn't happen don't sweat, just keep yourself busy and your been fine.

    Lol thanks everyone I talk to (whether it be my friends or hers are one sided) its refreshing to get someone's views who don't know us just know our situation... this site is the best site I have found... I have been on the net for the last 4 weeks looking for answer etc and nothing until I found this place. I really appreciated the talking back and forth that everyone does... it really does help

    This story inspired me a lot for some reason, as I've been trying to find an alternative to my ex girlfriend. I'm probably going to try to talk to this one girl that I see at work who comes in at the same time pretty much every week. Thanks for the positive story!

    And I wouldn't worry about her contacting you, I've never had a girl ask me for my number and NOT contact me put it that way. If she doesn't, like the others have said, you already found one other girl there are others too!
