We all struggle about it
But many aspects of life can help and for sure one day a better one will knock at the door
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
Get under another.

Time + new people

I joined the military and went to war 3 times. Probably not the most healthy choice but thats what i did.

@Rokan did it work?
Rokan · 31-35, M
@SW-User you know actually if it wasnt for one guy it would have, but thats a long story and his first airman committed suicide so that gives you an idea of the atmosphere he created.
Very easily when you know they weren't meant for you and were emotionally unavailable. Sometimes we wish for things we shouldn't have, really. And when things don't work out then we wonder what happened.. in some cases. Sometimes we forget that we're not really mourning the person, but what we thought we had. Huge difference. Some people are just not good for us and the sooner we realize that, the better. It takes two to make things work.

@AbbySvenz you have an ex

I never could. I still cry occasionally about people I knew more than seven years ago. Time didn’t really help. I mean I suppose it taught me how to live with the pain but, it’s still there. It never went away. I still don’t handle it well at all when I have experiences even slightly similar to my past.

Time
Keeping yourself busy
Forming new and different routines/schedules
Northwest · M
Time and stop checking their social media to see who they’re hooking up with. Ow.
BlueVeins · 22-25
My strategy is to imagine them coming back and then rejecting them, over and over again.
Expect that it will take some time, there are no shortcuts. Know that it will get better. Every day that passes is a day closer to feeling better. Expect that there will be ups and downs for a while. You might feel better for a little and then worse again but that's part of the process. Try to keep busy, try not to lock yourself away. Allow yourself to grieve for perhaps a week or two but then get yourself moving.

Not when you meet someone else
Ynotisay · M
You remember why they're an "ex."
come2gether · 46-50, M
Pick a new guy to be your next ex

Put it in 4x wheel.

Create a new life without them. Become your own person. Stay active and stay busy doing things that you wanted to pursue but couldn’t due to being with them. It’s not selfish to be happy.
sben4200 · 56-60, M
It's not impossible but it does take time and it can hurt. I am sorry you are going through this
It will get easier.
Punches · 46-50, F
The best way to get over someone is to get under someone else.
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
Find someone new. Even if it's just temporary, it's better than sitting and remembering.
Entwistle · 56-60, M
Move on. Keep yourself occupied.
Soon you will be wondering why you were hurting and going through the unnecessary pain.
1) Learn how to pilot an aircraft.

The rest is pretty obvious, actually.

You can't get over your ex , as in person .
Why ? They were apart of your life and you can't erase your life .
At times when you get over someone depending on how toxic or good the relationship was .
It depends on you . I mean don't fight against the thoughts that come in when your ex enters your head and that's the same answer for any given situation you come up with life .
It was said to me by a man who was in his 60's and he's still happy now .
Don't answer the thoughts that come in unless you want to if there good thoughts
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
Feels impossible but it will happen. All my exes got over me quite easily :P
eMortal · M
Thinking of anything you didn't like about them.
Pretzel · 70-79, M
It's going to take time

there's an old expression "the best way to get over a man is to get under another one" - I think that's a little two simplistic. BUT you need to stay busy and be with people you know and trust - and if you notice a guy looking at you - just remember that you still have options out there.
Lilred2289 · 36-40, F
Slowly. But it will happen.
GuyWithOpinions · 31-35, M
Just takes time.
kittee · 22-25
get under another man
JimboSaturn · 56-60, M
Prodigious drinking.
Time, staying occupied with things that are mentally and emotionally engaging, try something new that interests you, basically develop something in your life that you value that they were never a part of.
Panamared · 70-79, M
Get ontop of someone else xD
pdockal · 56-60, M
Everybody is different
First mourn the loss
Then stop thinking about it
Find an activity that you enjoy to take your mind off him/her
bert199 · 51-55, M
Keeping busy as possible and making new friends. Who knows maybe one of them will be date worthy
lovebcups · 61-69, M
change is allways good and never go back or all the pain will be relived .
Takes time and new experiences. New friends, new love interests
Mudkip · 31-35, M
Life is too short to be stuck on someone. Sure it can hurt, but dwelling isn't gonna help. Put your head up and move foward. Better days will come.
wildbill83 · 41-45, M
Same way you get over annoying neighbors... 🤔

It takes time. Years sometimes. Only time will tell.
Jessmari · 46-50
Finding distractions, but ultimately time.
Barefooter25 · 46-50, M
It's never easy but over time, you'll get over it.
Nevertooold · 56-60, M
Time and jump back in the saddle again.....lotsa guys out there:)Good luck!!!
boredintexas · 36-40, M
It really does sometimes
At first it does feel like that
Move forward, one step at a time
caccoon · 36-40
Focus on taking care of yourself better than anyone else ever could.

Do things you enjoy. Spend time with friends.
in10RjFox · M
Replace X with a New Y ..
Slowly; in time!
Ramrod · 46-50, M
