Exes and breakups

Just how the fuck do I get over an ex???? I have no energy to type out my story, but I just need the support. A non alcoholic way to forget. Suicide isn't on the table just yet either, so that's not a go.

To get over someone, get under someone else. Really, it's that simple and yes, it breaks the curse.

Give it a year. I have a noose I keep as a friend.

My mind is roadkill right now, mind elaborating what getting under someone else means? I'm far too stupid rn, and that probably means finding someone else right? If so, that helps very little, that's a given.

Give it a year to move on or rope myself??? I'm not about to waste so much time crying every night for a month and feeling bad for 11 again, and the rope will call to me before a year elapses.

find a new person to go out with

Everyone handles it differently. For me when a breakup happens I usually stay single for 1/3rd the time of the relationship before hopping back in.

During this time it is OK to be depressed. Angry. Hate... etc but don't lash out. Take time to sort yourself out and become better and wiser for it.

No contact

Go out and do something, anything.

Realize it's over and it will never fix itself.

That's a given, but that won't be for a while, people are shitty and a mismatch for me most of the time. If it was simple to find someone else I would.

I have no problem with starting something new today, despite being dumped today, but I cannot connect with most people, it's a big hurdle..

She already destroyed all matters of contact, so that's out of the way. The problem here is that last statement. Sure it's over, but I knew it could be fixed. She just never acted openly to that. She was stubborn.

Stop thinking like this. If she wants to contact you she will. Move on.

I say this as I am in a similar situation and not listening to my own advice. It will never be fixed unless she wants to fix it.

There is no way to make it not hurt. It's like a long drug withdrawal That's why I stopped putting myself in those situations because it fucking sucks.

You have to move on, is my point. Whatever it takes. If you don't you will end up like me. Guess I'll get off the internet and walk to the dive bar and drink alone, maybe I'll end up in a fight or something, anything to feel alive again, really.

this exactly...meetup.com is good too

This helps, I can't counter that...

I can't stop getting new relationships though, otherwise I can never overcome the past one, and they don't come very easy...

You sound very ready for self destruction. Does it help? I can take that route..

>I can't stop getting new relationships though, otherwise I can never overcome the past one, and they don't come very easy...
You sound pretty damaged emotionally. I didn't mean cut contact with women. I meant stop throwing your heart at them so they can stomp on it. You sound a little clingy to be able to pull that off though.

No. Don't do anything I did. Takes too long. The state will just chip your rights away bit by bit if you keep misbehaving. If you have any friends, call them, go on a backpacking trip or something. If not, you'll just have to be strong.

I've dealt with my share of emotional damage, yes. And I wish I could stop throwing my heart out at them, but when they reciprocate it as soon or earlier than I do, it's hard.. my relationships are genuine it's later issues that drive things wrong. And I'd say I am very clingy, but I know my bounds, I don't let it be unhealthy.

I have friends, not many, but they're there, but when it comes to relationships, I just never feel they understand the full scope of things, which may be natural, given they didn't experience the relationship first hand, but it's still prominent enough to be insufficient for collective understanding. Trips are not something any of us are really available for though.. I want the rope, man, I want it a lot, she's not the sole reason for it either..

You either get over her or you kill yourself. And you don't want to kill yourself right? So what choice do you have? Man the fuck up and drive on.

Simple, right?

Yes. It's really that simple. Stop wallowing in your emotions like a woman, have a few colds ones and wake up tomorrow to focus on work or working out. Don't jump right back out there because you'll jump on the first person that pays you attention and get clingy. Give it some time then put yourself out there again. Just understand it's over with that person and you don't owe them any emotions/thoughts/texts/etc. Failed relationships are failed for a reason, you two don't jive together and never will or would have.

Thing is, I know it's that simple. In writing. In practice, not so, not for me anyway. More, I'm not the keeping inside pretending it doesn't matter type, I can't stop wallowing from one moment to the next unfortuantely. I am aware of jumping on the first person to provide attention, but I can also see it as that, objectively, and won't become attached, the question is finding such hookup. But you're right, she probably doesn't deserve all the effort I've been making..

>Call friend
>"yo buddy, broke up with my woman, I gotta get laid, help your nigger out"
>have sex with stranger
>repeat until you're empty inside like everyone else

No. Thank but no.

I agree with user to an extent that you're broken up for a reason. But that doesn't mean you're ok for someone else. Have you considered what you did wrong and how to fix it in the future?

Now, I see you're choosing the hard way.
You like gambling?
Maybe another woman comes along, you redeem all the mistakes of the past, whatever.
Maybe loneliness gets into your marrow, poisons your character, turns you into a bitter empty husk no one will want to be around anyway.
Speakin from experience here, compadre.

I'm capable of looking at the whole situation objectively, I know the things that were wrong and the reasons for why they were wrong. Further, I'm unwilling to take full blame for her and my issues. Either way, I know how to fix my end for the future.

Just wait around for an hour, someone else will post this exact thing, or go back 2 pages to an hour ago for another thread exactly like this, and 2 more for the hour before that.

I can't tell you exactly 'how.
But hanging out with friends and staying occupied is an extremely effective way of getting over someone.

Drop the info. How long were y'all together, how fresh is the break up, why, etc.

Find something more important and work towards it. I wanted a new motorcycle so I've been busting my ass at a McJob, making friends with great co-workers, clubbing and just doing my own shit.

Haven't even thought about the ex for few weeks until she messaged me yesterday something on Snapchat I still haven't opened.
I don't give a fuck.
Yet I was insanely in love with this girl a few months back.

To help you best we would really need to hear the full story. Otherwise all i can post is the same old generic things you see in these types of threads. But they're generic for a reason, and that's because they're true.

There is no quick fix for a broken heart. I think the thing that I would press upon you to remember the most is that you do not contact them whatsoever. Delete their cellphone number immediately, delete all of your social media it's bad in the first place, or if you are not strong enough to do that, block them on all social media. Delete all photographs and get rid of anything that has a strong emotional connection to her. One day you will be able to look at pictures of her and even possibly talk to her and everything will be fine and normal and you will not feel anything. But right now you are in a state of hurt and vulnerability and to talk to her at all or keep in contact with her at all is the worst thing you can do. It would only to be continual wounding yourself to do this. You will not move on. Because eventually she will move on and when she does it will be like day 1 all over again only 100x worse. If she said to be 'friends' then she really doesn't care about you. If she did she would know that she must also completely stop talking to you. If she has completely dropped out of your life trust me she is doing you a favor. I made the mistake to keep in contact with my ex and didn't listen to everyone who told me this. Don't make the same mistakes I did. Ceasing all contact with her will be the best thing you can do for yourself. The urges will come to look her up or reach out to her but you cannot do it. No matter what. The true man of virtue and strength stays and stands the firmest in his resolve especially when the storm is at it's roughest and at it's most severe. He has complete and absolute control over his actions even in the face of overwhelming impulse and feeling. You must do the same here.
