My best friend is going through the same thing hers died in Iraq on Nov 9 2004, and she still has it rough. I think the best thing is time. Its like the old saying Time heals all things. I wish you luck sweetie

He is always going to be in your heart. I can't tell you just to get over it because it's not like he just left you for the hell of it. It's going to hurt that he is gone. But you should try going out, meet other guys. Not saying take them as boyfriends. But just somebody to keep you occupied. I hope this helps. Good Luck. And sorry for you loss.

Start by making yourself smile every time you think of him and/or see a picture of him.
Start celebrating that he was in your life rather than his death.
Stop thinking about your loss and think of his parents and what you can do to help them.
Decide. Decide it's time to move on.
Think, would your boyfriend want you to be his grieving widow all your life. Live like you think he'd want you to.
If none of this helps, see a psychiatrist - you need professional help and, likely, a prescription for antidepressants.
I hope you soon learn to be grateful God lent you him to love even if it was for so short a time.
Bless you, Sweetie.

First, I am so sorry. You must have loved him a lot. Well, just think of it this way. God must have needed him for a very important job for God to take him away from you. So if you are having trouble, talk to God. It will help. And if it helps, think of you ex boyfriend as your guardian angel.

I second getting a counselor...may sound goofy or perhaps not something your really "into". Give it a shot though, you never know how much spilling your guts to a complete and utter stranger will help!

It takes time. You will never totally get over it. Just go on with your life, find things to do to occupy your time and mental thought.

Personally I think you'd be better off talking with a professional counselor than using Yahoo answers.

Well the best thing is to see a breavement counsellor who will try to help u to talk abt it, letting all ur feelings out.

There is a book (not sure of the author) called "Good Grief" that should help you. It helped me get through my Father's Death.
