    If you loved her it's probably going to take more than 2 months tbh. Why did you break up with her if you loved her?

    I'm the same OP. 3 months on after a 5 month relationship I'm still devastated especially because I think we were so right, but something wasn't clicking for her. I hope she comes back.

    I think try exercising to kill negative energy, and online dating maybe to meet a few new girls for fun. It might be the only way to get her out of your head.

    Other than that I wish I had the answers but guess time will heal

    Hi OP,

    I know how you feel. Two years ago, I was broken up with by the guy I loved with all my heart. It took me a year and a half to get over him.

    I would suggest getting back out there slowly, meet a few new people, friends. Try forget about her, easier said than done, I know, but when I think about those 18 months I sat in depressed, it's just wasted time. Life's way too short to be dwelling on the past. Love and people, they come and go. You'll have days when you miss her like crazy, but that's completely normal. There'll come a day when you meet someone unexpectedly, and things will just fall into place again.
    It's completely normal to have a soft spot for your ex, no matter how long or short you've broken up. I still do, I still care, but it's over between us.
    It takes a matter of time, and of course new experiences ahead, but you'll get there.

    Good luck. :)

    Two months is nothing.

    It'll take as long as it takes, is the short answer. In the mean time, focus on yourself and your life. Try to better things for yourself, be it in your social life, your career, your body. Focus on becoming the person you want to be.

    In time, you'll accept the fact that it wasn't meant to be and you'll only think of her in passing. I can tell you that with certainty because I've finally reached that stage myself with someone who was firmly etched on my brain just a few months ago. You WILL get over her :)

    I do agree that it is hard to move on but until you form a new social life you will keep thinking of your last one with your ex. In order to form a new social life you have to force yourself to get out there and meet others. It is hard at first but eventually it will come together.
