getting over him - Life After Love

Purplekittie · 02-18-2008, 05:07 PM

im working on getting over dave. me and this guy from my history class are going out to dinner tonight, just as friends. he walked me to class and we hung out today. he's cool but im not in for a relationship quite yet obviously. but i know he likes me...so i guess we'll just play it by ear, i think it might be nice to be single for a while though.

how did you get over your exes?

jlbecker · 02-18-2008, 05:10 PM

i think i missed something.
but i think being single for a while is a good idea. you learn so much about who you are and what you want. and it can be alot of fun!

i guess you missed it....me and dave broke up.

KEEP BUSY!!!!
Whether you feel like it or not!
Call friends (most important), exercise (I hate it), read (love it), watch movies, anything.
Just don't sit around focusing on it!
Making new boy friends doesn't hurt either!
Have fun at your dinner!

how did you get over your exes?

yeah when my ex & i broke up, i was single for 6 months till db & i got together... and even then i wasnt sure. i left us as nonexclusive for 2 months of him saying "i wanna be your man". "i want you for xmas". "i wanna be the guy by your side" & when he actually got to iraq is when it hit me on how much i actually like him! but yeah, stay single for a while & something amazing will just hit you like a brick!
and to get over him, stay occupied, and flirt a lot! lol when you're alone is when you'll have the hardest time, but flirting is always fun! become a 'player' lol thats pretty exciting too! just dont let them find out about each other! hahaha

sorry about that. i caught up. firstly, sorry babe

look at these experiences as opportunities to grow & learn more about yourself. rather than mourning the loss of a relationship, look at what you have learned. lost or not, you learned something! everything happens for a reason.
so go out with girlfriends. go out with guy friends, no strings attached. write in a journal. focus on school. paint & draw your heart away!

time and more time is the way I got over my exes. Everyone is different on how they heal. I dated someone for 3 1/2 years and when we broke up I recognized in myself there was no way I was ready to date anyone. I was single for a looong time and as a result I don't hold the mistakes of my ex against DF and I am truly grateful for that.

Enjoy being single chick!! Really enjoy it...there is no rush to hop into another relationship

MichelleB · 02-18-2008, 05:30 PM

It takes time. It's nothing to rush, because that always backfires, trust me.

Purplekittie · 02-18-2008, 05:37 PM

im not rushing. i dont want to rush...im waiting for a guy who treats me as well as he did.
