Answer 1

I feel bad for you. Cry all you feel like you need to. don't let anybody tell you to forget about it. You should try to see other people as soon as possible. They might help you to cope with it. But move on when ever you feel like it. Don't let what anybody says get to you. When you're ready to move on do it. like i said, if you see other people they might help you with it. but don't forget. lots of people tell me to forget about it. I don't know if you've seen Bridge to Terebithia, but what the teacher says is true. You shouldn't forget. Sorry if you feel like i've already said that one hundred times but it's important.

hope i helped. hope you find someone else!

You might want to consult with a grief counselor over this. What you are going through is normal but it is multilayered. If you understand this and are guided through it, you will come out healthier. There are books on the subject, I hope you are reading them.

You do have something to live for........tomorrow. You don't know what's out there waiting for you. Don't destroy the happiness and love you had with your bf with these negative thoughts. We doesn't want that for you, he wants the best for you........to move on. First don't worry about dating, just get active in life again. Do what you did before and maybe add some new activities. Each man you meet is not a threat to your memory of your bf. They are just guys. Learn how to communicate again, how to interact with men and women.......for heavens sake don't be jumping into bed or getting serious for awhile. You need this time time heal and relearn life. As you get your wheels back under you remember your bf wants you to be happy, so at some point you'll have to cut the kite string, let me fly from you........but that's aways away.

Answer 3

First of all, I am so sorry for your loss. "Time heals" isn't necessarily true, it is what you do with your healing time that matters. Moving on too quickly will only distract you from healing. Wait until you can speak of your lost love without feeling dispair. Best wishes...
