Mr. Savage Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 Its been months now since my ex dumped me. She was my first serious relationship I ever had. I've been moving along failrly well and I have gotten past the anger stage and am actually rather forgiving about the whole situation. I've been on a few dates since and and nothing has really sparked so I have decided to cool it for awhile and focus my attention on other things (writing and directing a short film). However I notice that when I am not actively pursuing other girls it leads me to think of my ex more and more. Is finding someone else really the only way to move on and completely forget about her? Do you think her being my first and only real relationship is making it harder to forget about her? Thanks for any feedback.

Author Mr. Savage Posted October 4, 2011 Author Posted October 4, 2011 Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Paper Roses Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Great song. No, that first love is not the worst. She is one that you will always remember. As you get older, relationships get more complicated and are harder on you emotionally. My opinion. Hey, if chasing girls is keeping your mind off of your ex, keep chasing them until you find one you like. Have fun, before you know it, that girl will be a pleasant memory. I promise.
