How Do You Keep Going...  |
|
Last night my girlfriend of a year and a half told me that she had no intention of us staying together for much longer and that we were at the end of our stretch. A little backstory on what has been going on between me and her. About a month and a half ago, she walked away from me because I wouldn't tell her why I didn't like another girl and told me that she wanted to be free of commitment to me for a while so that she could finish school. She did, however, want me to stay in her life exactly the same way but just as a "friend" with the intention that in a month or two she would come back at the end of school. I managed to keep myself together and ignore the fact that she was slowly moving away from me despite telling me over and over again that she wasn't. We went out a few times as "friends" and it resulted in me slipping further into a depression as a result of her essentially make me less of a boyfriend and more of a friend. It all culminated the other night when she told me that she knew the spark was gone and that we were circling the drain. Last night I confronted her about it, knowing the end was near, and found out that she had been feeling this way for quite a while and that she initially intended to get back together with me, but came to the fact that she didn't want to very quickly. The whole point of last night was to determine what exactly she wanted to happen. She told me she still wanted to be friends but I told her that I couldn't do that, that was what we had been doing for the last month and a half and it damn near killed me. I had to let her go, knowing that it was impossible for me to live without her. My question is, how the hell do you keep yourself going after loving someone for so long and having them be an integral part of your life for almost two years. I can't even function right now because every little thing reminds me of her. Things I never associated with her are now somehow reminding me of her. It's impossible for me to do anything without her returning to my head. How do you move on? Keep going? Do anything?

1. jonesy123 (819) | 2 months ago | You just keep going. It's hard at first, but it gets easier each day. You just have to push yourself to move on. One thing is to box up what you have of hers (pictures and the like). Give back what she has left at your place. Make a clean cut. For a lot of people it is hard to go on as 'just friends' after such a long relationship. Some manage to do it. In your situation, don't kid yourself. You will just hurt more emotionally, if you see her as a friend. Because deep in the back of your mind you still hope for a reconciliation of your relationship. It won't happen. Until you see that with absolute certainty, just being friends won't work out for you. Therefore, keep your distance, mourn, move on. Time heals all wounds. Sometimes the healing process is just very very slow. If you find yourself in a funk because of this, push yourself to do something fun. Call a friend, go out with somebody, have some fun. You'll get over it.

2. ladym33 (1189) | 2 months ago | It is not easy, but I do believe everything happens for a reason. This relationship was not the one for you, it had to end to make room for better relationship to eventually find you. It is painful at the moment, but in time the pain will fade and you will realize that this relationship may have been more flawed then you realized. Keep yourself very busy. Take time to spend time with friends or to make new ones. Go out have a good time, do something you have been putting off doing. Yes she is going to creep in to your mind every so often, but you will find as the days go by that it will happen less and less. Be strong, I know it is hard at the moment, I have had my heart broken and can honestly say I am better for it. I also realized that the person who broke my heart was not the one for me and what I have now is a million times better. Best of luck to you.

3. Hatley (8702) | 2 months ago | grow up and move on you cannot make someone love you if they dont and eventually you will find someone that will love you and you will love her.take it one day at a time and if you are working really get into your job so ou will have less time to think about the girl. You can live without her because you have to.

4. sid556 (4451) | 2 months ago | It is really hard but it does get better...it really does. I survived a divorce and i can look back now and remember feeling just as you do now. Now, I love my life and can't imagine why or how I was so devastated by this man. It sounds like she was not really sure of her own feelings which unfortunately kept you hanging on and dragging things out. I'm sure she didn't mean to do that. she was probably hoping the magic would return and finally had to be honest with you when it didn't. Try to keep busy and maybe take up a new hobby to fill in time. This will get better and you will move on.

5. subha12 (10220) | 2 months ago | I was never been into any relation. so i do not have any practical experience as such. but what i can say is there are many ways to keep that going. actually first of all think whether you are with the right person or not. if that person was never interested in anything more than friends, you just can't help it.

| 6. kg_gurl (95) | 2 months ago | There's no easy way on getting over someone. It will hurt and it will keep on hurting for a long time. I guess you'll just have to get used to it and hope that as time passes by you'll know how to handle it. You'll have to keep on moving because you have to, no matter how hard. Spend a lot of time with friends and family and try to have a good time so that even for just a minute, you can stop thinking about her....

7. ljegbers (4912) | 2 months ago | The comment here to "Just keep going" is right onthe mark. I think anytime you're in a long time relationship, either good or bad, you still have reminders of that other person. It takes time to adjust and get to know yourself all over again as an individual because you have shared yourself with another person for so long. It's understandable. How do you keep moving, you force yourself out of bed and just make your body move. Keep going? Yep, you have to. Do you have to do anything in particular, no, you still need to get up everyday, you still need to dress, eat, shower and just keep plugging away. A heart takes time to heal, but I know a big adustment is you've lost a part of yourself. You'll find that you're a complete person again as you become more independant from the emotions that held you to her. It isn't easy, but neccessary. Just keep going and time will eventually take care of the rest.

8. ucancallmedissy (2026) | 2 months ago | You will forget her at one time sooner or later. Just keep doing what you should do. Go to work, go to school, hang out with friends, find other things to do, join a gym, just do something. I know it's hard, but you have to keep going in order to forget her. Be patient, I'm sure you'll make it.

9. lucy02 (4005) | 2 months ago | Keep going. You are young. There may be many girls before you find the right one. I wasted many a day when I was younger pining over my first love. Then I woke up. It was over and time to move on. Don't waste as much time as I did. The sooner you move on the better. Don't waste one more moment worrying about this girl.

10. mikeysmom (555) | 2 months ago | i just looked at your bio to see how old you are before answering you. first of all let me say i feel for you and your broken heart. i have been there and i was also young like you when it happened. i do not want to sound like a cliche here but let me say that time heals most wounds. i say this because it is true and i say "most" because that is also true. when it comes to matters of the heart and romantic love time will help you get past this. please believe me and hang in there. you are so young and have so much to live for and so much to yet experience in life. this will make you stronger in the long run. i know everything reminds you of her but it is because this is all new and you have not yet found a way to cope with losing her. as you move on with your life you will see looking back that i am right. you may always feel something for her but then again you might meet someone so fantastic that you will forget all about this girl. sometimes people do us favors in life by letting us go and maybe we cannot see it at the time but you will look back and see she was not for you. go out and have some fun. you are young and you deserve to have fun and be happy. another girl will come along. there are alot of them out there. just hang in!!
