How To Get Over An Ex by Nobody: 12:00am On Sep 30, 2014
I have really pondered on this issue for a very long time. Trying to get over someone i used to be (or still am) crazy about. I have read books, browsed d internet, asked questions and even done silly things and i have come to the conclusion that you dont really get over an ex, you just learn to live without them. Sometimes you think you are makin progress but just seeing that person again and having just one decent conversation with them will start to dig up old feelings and memories. I think what matters at the end of the day is your self control.
What do you think?

Its not so easy especially if its one u loved, even the ones that comes as rebound won't make no impact, only u can help ursef trust me
No matter how hard u try not to do things to mk u rem him, u will find ursef lost in his thoughts.
Get a diary/someone to talk abt him to
Its normal to feel that gush all over again
Cry if need be
If u get so busy, the time u less busy, u will almost choke with his thoughts.

Same thing everyone advices, get busy, delete in contacts, stay away frm emotionsl/movie/musics, hang out often with frnds and lastly open up, do not lock up

Getting over an Ex is not an easy task dear, it takes courage and determination.

Its really hard getting over an ex u really did love, the best way i feel u could actually get over one is to get really busy with sthelse, then u would feel they dont even exist, i have tried this before. But if ur the type that always lay idle on ur bed all day doing nthing, u might find it one heck of an herculean task getting over one.

Gettin over an ex dependz mainly on hw d relationship ended_ d truth iz wen u get emotionally attached 2 some1 nd 4 some reason(s) dat "some1" decides 2 ends d affair, wt breaks u down is solely dis feeling of total rejectn Nd nt d fact dt u'll hv 2 move on witawt dat fellow...

Bur in a situatn were d break up was ur idea, u'll practically hv ntin 2 get over_ instead u'll develop dis euphoria feeling of self worth...(Xcept u'r d sentimental type)

D tin is, nxt tym dnt let dem break up wif yu_ initiate d break up instead. Etz easier 2 move on dat way...

Nd I over read some1 mention "love"... undecided
Pls letz stop cloaking ourselvez unda d shadow of dat 4-lettered word_ d fact dt u'r fond of some1 or sensually attached 2 dat some1 doesn't define LOVE.

Get busy with something to distract you from thinking about your ex....... But if the feeling is deep, it might take time....... Especially if it was the ex that called off the relationship

Ironically, I built myself in a way that, my worst fear is my greatest weapon. A lot of people would advise that spending time less busy would most certainly worsen the situation and as such they advocate that one spends less time doing nothing that can take their full attention. And for someone like me that happens to be a thinker, it would kill to allow for such occurrence. But then, the irony here is that, that time I spend less busy is what gives me the edge for getting over anything. Yeah I know this seems weird and bizarre(as its the negation to what alot of people believe) but its the truth. Having time to summon my thoughts would help me in getting stronger and better and can see me through any situation rather than bring me down.

Well, I think this is just me.

The number one thing not to do.
Don't go into another relationship yet.using someone as a rebound is unfair and will end up hurtin u most.
What I did was pamper myself.
I love reading.I bought as many novels as possible.not romantic novel mind you cos it just made me sad so i developed interest in crime,fantasy,e.t.c
Deleting all pictures we took together.
I started going out on my own.if i feel like swimming bam to the pool.if its to dance its to d club somtimes to d garden just to hang out.me dat don't have time for friends before i also make sure I visit some frnds just to kill boredom.
I tried enjoying my company.
I looked at the brighter said,no more wasting of calling card.since I found my inner strength.
I forgave him.dis is a big step if u don't do dis
U might find it difficult moving forward.
Lastly,I made some friends online.online friends can really be cool and easy to share tins with but never let dem take advantage of u.

Nice idea but you got it wrong. Even the person who initiates the breakup can be seriously affected especially if there was emotional attachment. The best way remains getting busy with tasks at work, school, church and spending more times with friends of same sex.

Aesop's "Sour Grapes" fable works magic. My default setting is "No babe is irreplaceable", with that in mind, if you stay, fine. But if you don't, then you weren't good enough for me, and I'll be on the look out for someone better. It works 10 out of 10 times. Just try to remember and focus on all the bad things about her that love made you overlook and you'll be fine in no time.

You're welcome. wink
