It will just take time... You have to take it day by day. Don't talk to him, don't look at pictures of him, don't read notes from him, or anything like that. Those things just make it harder.

I'm in the same exact boat and wondering the same thing. I am currently trying to remember all of the crappy things he did so as to not feel nostalgic about the relationship. Remember, there is a REASON you broke up, it was something that happened because it was not the right relationship or you two were not a good fit or something else. So when you think about the relationship keep in mind that you didn't just accidentally break up. Also, you shouldn't call him. It's tempting to call for stupid reasons hoping that he will then tell you he misses you and that he's sorry and that he wants things to work and then you'll get back together but it just hurts you more in the long run because it's unlikely that that will happen. You shouldn't isolate yourself (like I am). You need to find something new to fill the void (I am picking exercising). There is no law saying that you have to forget him. But, it is in your best interest to try to rebuild your life without him in it and that will take time and yes it will be hard but hopefully it will make you a stronger person. Hope that helps (and I hope I take my own advice)

Its better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all remember.You should never forget what you had with this guy even if it didn't work out well at least it was special if even for a short time.So don't try and forget him just try and move on.You will find someone that wants to love you as much as you can love them it may take time but it will happen.When it does then you wont need to forget this guy instead you will need to remember him.Best of luck i hope you are happy and remember if your sad on the inside its very hard to be happy on the outside

It will take time. You will have to put yourself back out there so you can find someone else to love.
You are right it is easier said than done. But, you have to wake up each day and tell yourself I am worth finding that special person that is close to me that I can fall in love with.
Do not just get up and say oh well another day just to feel sad about. That will get you know where. So put on your dancing shoes and go.

Im in the same situation, and hurting a lot.
But you have to realise over time, things will get better.
I did the first step last night, pulled down all his photos and put them in a box on my wardrobe. Now I just have to stop answering his phone calls, because you cant move on, when your still in contact with them,
Go out with your friends, flirt a little with guys, (just to give you some confidence) and surround yourself with friends as much as possible.

it will be impossible for you to forget him....as you said you still love him...the best thing for you to do is move forward with your life...you can't sit around and let life past you by...moping over something that may not ever be again....and you will not be able to move on until you accept this break up....its hard and it hurts....but once you get on with your life that feeling is going to feel sooooo good and you will look back on it....but instead of crying...you will be smiling....time to start a new chapter in your life....move on.

hun its goin to be hard, you never really forget the loves of your life. Even if you get a new guy and fall madly in love with him your ex will be on your mind. Give it time it will fade away.

You could always try goin' out ... not even WITH someone .... just - pre-occupy your mind. That's a tough one. Sorry you're havin' a tough time, holler if ya need to talk to someone.
