averagegirl Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 I feel like I just approached this whole moving on phase of my life wrong. After being dumped, it took me a long time to allow myself to get over my ex. I guess it was because I wasn't prepared for us to break up. Either way, I still found myself thinking about him every so often and missing what we had. I felt crazy because we were only together for a few months. I thought I was like one of those crazy ex girlfriends who can't let her ex go. Now I can definitely say I'm in a better place than I was a few months ago but I still do miss him. And from time to time, I still fantasize about us getting back together. Do y'all have any tips on how to completely move forward from your ex?
staggerlee71 Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 I am 4 months post break from 18 month relationship. Your post interests me because I was thinking the exact same thing just a week ago. Although I'm no longer obsessed looking for answers and feel very close to being centered, she still pops in my mind when I am not doing anything. I think I have come to the realization that she is going to be in my thoughts from time to time for a while longer. I think at this point I just miss her a bit. I have told myself that it is just fine to think of her, and miss her but to move my thoughts along after a brief period of time. I sort of give myself a break when I think of her and then say to myself that I have not thought of her for X period of time today. if that makes sense. Really, time, activity, and life focus is what will help you move past this. And of course, NO CONTACT!! OH, Loveshack has been great for me as well. Hang tough, know that your a good person, that the break is what is supposed to happen, and keep a positive attitude. Lastly, I am making a real effort to be kind to people on a daily basis; holding the door at the store, saying good morning, thank you, letting a car in during rush hour, that sort of stuff. Just building good Karma.
