It's been 3 months (100 days to be precise) since I broke with my ex, yes it was me who broke up with her. We had been in a kinda long distance relationship ( lived 3 hours away from eachother, but due to being in uni and college. We'd see eachother like once a month) for almost a year and half. As I was a Christian and my family was against dating anyone non christian so I hid my relationship from them from the start. When I finally told them 3 months ago, they said I had to end the relationship. It was a hard thing to do and we ended the relationship in a nice way.

 

Deep down I always knew she was never the one for me but I stayed with her because I always dreamt of only dating one girl and she would be the love of my life and then eventually marry her.

 

Thing is I know breaking up with her was the absolute right thing to do and I dealt with it pretty well as I feel much happier now, no more lying to my family, nothing to do hide from them.

 

A month ago my mate was talking to my ex and she said 'when I think about him only bad thoughts/things come to mind' when my mate told me this and the actual email, I was seriously Hurt by what she said as I'd only think of the happy and good times I had with her. As a boyfriend I did my best to make her happy and feel special. We definitely had much more good times than bad so that really annoyed me and I said to myself 'shes dead to me'

 

Despite all this, I'm constantly thinking about her and checking her instagram account (even though I broke up with her) but I decided no more stalking and it's been 3 days since I stopped stalking.

 

How do I stop thinking about someone who wasn't meant for me and without her I'm doing a whole better in life, so why do I still think about her email

?

 

P.s. She was my first ever girlfriend and I was her first ever boyfriend. I'm never gonna bump into her on the streets so that's a good thing

For now, enjoy summer. Hang out with friends. Go to parties. Keep yourself busy.

 

When the school year starts up again have a plan about how you will meet new people -- join organizations, go to parties, find a new study buddy, eat on the other side of campus.

I worked with my first boyfriend, and dated for 2 years. It was tough. Eventually time heals all. Now of days I can see him with his new girlfriend and feel nothing. I stalked his facebook every single day.

I would threw myself at least for a good 2 months. I did every single bad thing you are not suppose to do, but eventually I got TIRED feeling like crap. I got TIRED of wanting somebody who didn't want me at all. I simply got tired.

 

Let time do it thing, but be active, get off her account!

Start to date other girls. Do what makes you happy! :]

I'm not sure there's much you can do other than give yourself time. Things will get better. Good luck!

When you give up a relationship due to the super ego of your family and religion, really hard to get over it
