This is not an easy task. You may never get over it fully. Eventually you'll start dating again and things will get better but until then concentrate on your child. That is the most important thing in your life right now. Its not easy to do but your goal is to raise that child first. If love comes during that then great but the child needs your love and reassurance that everything is going to be fine.

Give ure friends a call!!! spend some time with all of them remember they always get ure problems off ure mind dont think about the past u have a life to continue life is too short to think about what has been lost but yet u dont know what u might gain. Ask ure daughter to travel out with u and enjoy life together like never before. Meet new guy friends but take it slow and show no interest in the ex-husband.

I would have to ask you how YOU feel about the situation?? Are you willing to go on with life, or are you going to wallow in self pity??
People move on, you need to do the same!!!
Eight years is a LONG time, but it's not a lifetime!!! Be glad you had the time together, and that you have a child that will always be a part of him.
Good Luck!!!

That happened to me (kinda) 2 years ago. It was soooooo hard to get over but I did. I focussed on bettering my life and it sometimes worked. I always thought about him though. A year later we got back together and still are. If it was meant to be it will be, if not, it won't and you need to do what is best for you until you figure that out.

First stop thinking about him. Keep urself busy all the time go out with your friends and get a new b/f. Just forget about him. He'll be out there with his new g/f having fun and you'll be at home feeling bad for yourself?
Go out somewhere.
good luck

The best thing to do is move on and try to for get over it the best you can. Don't think about it so much. Make new friends. I have been where you are at.

nothing will help but time.....you can go out and have fun with your friends but hooking up with the first guy you meet at a club isn't good....flirting with guys is ok nad trying to forget about him but it will be even harder now that you have a daughter with him

Take some classes in things YOU really love.
Get busy with things that make you feel good.
Dont "try" to get over it....... it'll happen by itself.
