    Dear all

    Im half looking for advice but a part of me just wants to get this off my chest and have someone know how im feeling. I cant seem to forget about my ex girlfriend. We were childhood friends and got together about a year ago. It got very serious and there was often talk of marraige and babies. We broke up without either of us actually wanting to , in a way we were forced apart with no option of solving it. Anyway shes with someone else and Im with someone else. Im pretty sure she has moved on and I love my current girlfriend but I cant stop thinking about my ex, how is , how I wish things were different and the time we spent together. Other than alcohol, is there anything that will make this go away, ever. It has been almost 10 months since I seen her last

    Thanks for listening, it helps to get it out there.

    So you were only going out 2 months?

    Why did you break up if you don't mind me asking, cos it sounds like ye were good together.

    Is there any chance of getting back?

    Other than that the only way to get over these things are time.

    I suppose the only way to look at it is to realise that if you were meant to be together, you would be. There are couples out there that have had life try to separate them in ways that I'm sure were less than what you went through and they stay together. I know one couple who were separated by work(him in the US). They barely saw each other for four years. They are married now.

    The way to get over it is simply to let it go. I know that sounds simple, but if you make your mind up you can. I think you may have become fixated on "what might have been" and not the reality of what was. It happens. You owe yourself and your current girlfriend to let go.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.
