I dated this girl for nearly 2 yrs and since college we have broken up and gone our separate ways. The distance was just too hard..neither of us really know why we broke up.. it was just right. Its been months since the break up and I feel like I should move on.. and honestly, for the most part, I have. But, I still think about her. I wish things would have worked out. Just tonight I was on the..infamous Facebook and noticed she's going to prom with some other guy... a friend of hers commented "he's cute..have fun!" And again...feeling came up. Sounds pretty lame ey? Yea I feel pretty lame asking this question on this website..but How am I supposed to get over her!? I want to start thinking about..maybe other girls... and just move on with my life. What happens happens. Just looking for some advise..and PLEASE if ya don't wanna give a serious answer don't bother leaving one. Thanks for reading

We all can have a little twinge when we see someone we used to be with with someone else...This doesn't mean that you still love her so much as it does that you're a typical guy...That being said, you really confused me when you say that you two went to college together but she's going to prom with someone else as college kids don't go to prom unless you had quite an age difference for your age group of dating...Anyways, remember that there is more of them than us and you can find that someone special if you look forward and not in the past....Truly, Best of luck

We never really forget the one we love, they always own a small peice of our hearts. I am older than I want to admit and from time to time an old high school flame will pop into my mind and I can almost remember how it felt when I would see her. You appear not to be with anyone, at least on a regular basis right now. The fact that she has someone may be part of what you are feeling. Better to be in a bad relationship or even a difficult one than to be alone. We have al been there one time or another. Time will make it easier but it will never really go away. What is even tougher is you have to let it go and you know that you do. Keep busy, get out there, date take up a hobby, but all that idle time sitting alone is when she is going to haunt you and drive you crazy.

Don't worry. The feelings of "what might have been" are pretty normal.
Give yourself some time. Do some dating. And stay in touch with her. You guys are pretty young. Maybe your paths will cross again and then who knows?
Life is full of missed opportunities and disappointments. Maturity is about dealing with them and when possible avoiding repeat mistakes.
Don't be sorry for loving. We are all better for these experiences and we learn from them.
Somebody wonderful is out there waiting for you. It might be the one you broke up with and you might be back together. Or it may be someone else.
Your whole life is ahead of you. Don't pine it away just yet.

There really isn't a cure to get over somebody, it just happens gradually over time. Feel free to date and enjoy the single life, but do yourself a favor by not starting a new relationship until the lingering feelings for her are over. Just keep in mind that she is also trying to get over you, so don't let the little things she does get to you. Good luck.

Its simple, stop trying sooo hard to find "true love" cause the minuite you quit searching for it "true love" will slap you in the back of the head. Stand up, dust off the seat of your pants and get busy with the buisness of living. Start dating again, get a dog, learn how to play the guitar, anything to keep yourself busy. Just keep on keeping on and love will be yours for the taking!

my input is that you'll most likely never forget this girl but you can move on by keeping yourself busy and trying to avoid situations where you might run into her or hear info about her. if your mind is preoccupied with something else or someone else your less likely to be thinking about her. Bottom line look for a college hottie and and soon you'll be having to try to remember who it was you were trying to forget

it just takes time. I've been divorced for 7 years and I still think about my ex from time to time and wish things would have worked out. But they didn't for some reason and I'm okay with that (now).
don't blame yourself for anything, and hold your head high.. You'll be fine.

Hmm...umm well...stop looking back at your high school past. That'll always remind you of her. Move on to new, other, girls your age and do stuff that you never did with her.

you feel in love with her, and will love her all your life, so nothing you can do about the feelings, tell her your feelings, usually if you were in love with her she had to be with you to so mabe you can rekindle your love and get back together, if not be happy she will always be in your heart forever, no matter is she is gone or not
