    Unfortunately the truth is that there is no easy way to get over someone. When you care about someone so much its hard to listen to others when they say you deserve better, its hard to listen to yourself sometimes too. My ex broke up with me after 2 years when I was 18 because he was in love with his ex-girlfriend. He was my first love and I was completely heart broken. I tried staying friends with him but it was really hard, emotionally. I think what helped the most is talking to my friends and my mom, although it was hard to hear (and I refused to believe them) they said I was strong, beautiful, deserve better, and he's an idiot. I made plans with my friends to hang out..I made sure I was doing something fun everyday just to get my mind off of things. I kept pushing myself to believe what they told me, and although I went through my phases of missing him, hating him and so on....I told myself that he will always be a part of my life and I wish him all the best. I never believed I would care about anyone else as much a I did him...however I am now 23 and in a happy relationship for the past 4 years with someone else. It's never easy but you have to stay strong and believe in yourself.

    Well first of all, you should probably tell your ' best friend ' to tell him to leave her alone. You really honestly don't want to get your friend into any of your boy problems. Second of all, you should ignore him. If he tries to talk to you, don't talk back. If you see him around, avoid going by him or even looking at him. Try and think of him as just another person in the crowd, not your ' ex. ' If he ever told you he ' loved ' you, then he obviously did not, because if he has enough guts to be in love with your best friend then he is a cold hearted person, and you shouldn't have to deal with that! So pretty much, just ignore him. Find someone who makes you happy, and someone that you don't think will leave you for your best friend. I really hope everything gets better <3

    I am truly sorry for the loss. But like bettyliem says Time. Another thing you can do is find something you really like to do, like hanging out with other friends or learning a new activity. Something to get your mind off of him. I know it is easier said than done but ultimately you will get through this. I know from past experiences. :) And God (the one who truely LOVES you) Can and will help you through this. Take care beautybud. :)

    I just broke up with my boyfriend of (almost) 3 years a week or so ago.  Things weren't working out anymore and I wasn't happy with our relationship anymore.  I'm pretty young and started dating him in middle school so I grew up with him by my side the whole time and couldn't remember what it was like without him.  I'm obviously not over him at all yet (its only been a week).  What I'm doing to get through this is telling myself tht everything is going to be okay and that its going to take time, but in the end I'll be more happy then when I was with him.  It seemed like things were getting worse every day and i just kept looking forward to the turning point were everything will get better.  I know how hard it is but if we both hang in there, everything will be okay eventually:)

    Sadly, trying to forget someone you loved is like trying to remember someone you never met. I'd suggest talking to him about how he madeyou feel. Also, it might help if you try to think about yourself. HAve some girl time; a sleepover with you bestie; a day at the beach; shopping trip, etc. My point is, instead of thinking about him so much, think about what you want. Maybe by the end of the summer you will have hooked a new hottie ;)
