AmadeusKaelPyralis Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 Some of you may have seen my desperate posts in the Sexual relationships boards, and now I come here. My girlfriend and I broke up a few days ago (not for the reasons posted in the other boards though), we were just begining out third year only three days into it. She hurt my feelings and would not see that she had done that and insulted me, physically threatened slaps, etc. So, I broke up with her but my doing the breaking up did not make it any less painful. Now, no matter where I go, or what I do I am reminded of her. I will admit I gave up almost all of myself to her and my life in the process, that is the kind of man I am when I love someone. She was my first everything, my first kiss, my first love, everything. So I shall get to the point, is there any advice anyone can give to me on how to keep myself from breaking down every time I am reminded of her? How do I forget all of these memories whenever I turn around?
dasani08810 Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 How do I forget all of these memories whenever I turn around? Consciencely, second by second, step by step. I know you'll hear this time and time again. And all the cliches suck after hearing them for a while. But really; love is not an easy emotion to just get rid of. It takes time and effort. I would suggest first, changing your environment. Move your furniture around, hide anything that you bought together or she bought for you, change your route to work, don't go to places you went together. Just create a different environment that she wasn't involved in. Don't focus on the negative. Try to focus on the fact that she wasn't around long enough to make this worse; and if your were going to get married, she wasn't around long enough to take half your stuff AND half your paycheck!!! Try to smile, the upside is limitless; the downside is right below your feet!!
