Resolved Question

So how do you get over him?

I think we broke up on Friday. He said we needed a break. I say 'think' because we were on the phone (Long distance relationship) and unfortunately his family came in and we couldn't continue. He said he'd call later, and I haven't heard from him since.
I have asked him to call me once more, as I need closure, I need to know what is going on. He hasn't.
He replied that he'd call me 'soon.' He hasn't called yet, it has been just about 6 days.
Is this my closure?
How do I stop from thinking about him? How do I fall out of love?
Every night around 11:00PM...our time, I end up weeping all over again.
I don't want to email him again and ask to call - that is begging and kind of stalkerish. I sent him one email and I know he read it, but hasn't replied...I guess that's that.

This hurts almost more than anything I have ever gone through...How does one fall out of love?
I just need to know what is what.

its really quite simple.
send him an email and sms saying that it was a pleasure knowing him, you were happy while it lasted. that you no longer want to continue in the relationship and are ending it.
wish him all the best for his life. and ask him not to contact you again . not only is it not best for you ......he will know and understand that he has hurt you.

Don't listen to sad songs! Don't dwell on your pain. Pinch yourself whenever you catch yourself wallowing. Easy for me to say, right? Oh, God Bless You. You've got to go through it to get to the other side. Hang in there. And pamper yourself like a Queen!

I get over someone by listening to depressing music, movies, whatever. I cry, I sob, I vent to my friends. Before you know it I'm all cried out. Then, it's time for girls night out in my most hoochie outfit ever. I get drunk, I get hit on, I dance. I start to feel better. Then, it's really just a matter of time....you will meet someone new, better, and hopefully they live closer so you don't have to deal with that long distance BS. Good luck!

I really feel for you...it must feel terrible. I think the only thing that helps is time. I think that he will start to miss you once he has time to and then he will regret it, so you need to prepare yourself for that as he will probable ask to be with you again......
I hope you build up your strength before that happens so you can give the right answer.
Dont feel bad about feeling bad, getting over someone will always be hard and there is no easy way, but you will be so proud of yourself in the future when you look back on all of this.

Chang your phone number . Then wait for him to contact you when he calls you and realizes that you changed your number .
If he never tries to email or contact you then you know he never loved you.
I did this and its the best thing you could do.
You need to have patience and give him
enough time to miss you. :@)

You know what you need to do make time for yourself. I got out of a break up I started working out, lost so much weight, bought my first car. I just made me time and one day I relieved that I hadn't thought about him and things just got simpliler so thats what you do. Focous on yourself. I know it will be hard at first because he just left you hanging but hey I had a guy tell me once he had to leave my house because the mafia was after him and when they came and shot up my house I didn't have a home phone so it was going to be a problem. Then he left and had a mutual friend tell me never to worry about him again. What a horrible way to get dumped. He could of just aid he didn't like me anymore. So just give it a try. Good Luck!!

By "long distant relationship", do you mean that you met online, and haven't ever been together, in person? Or do you mean that you have been together, periodically, and he's just somewhere different?

In the first case....I don't think you are in love...it's infatuation....a fantasy....you only know what you've been told by him...and you don't know for a fact if it's even true....

In the second case, it would be harder....because you made that connection, in person....

Either case, he's not responding to your email...so, it tells me, he's proably found someone else, or simply doesn't want to be in this long distant relationship anymore....(they are very hard to be successful)

I would remove any reminders you have of him...anything he may have sent you, whether it's via the internet, or if he mailed something....leave love songs/movies out of your life, for right now....and get out with your friends....

You have your closure....You just don't want to look at it.

His family came in while you were on the phone and he had to hang up? Does "family" include a "wife"? If so, end it, as darpppok said. You're just going to get hurt a lot more later on if you wait.

First, sorry you are going through this. Falling out of love is not an easy thing to do.

For me, with my ex (a while back), I remember feeling hurt when the relationship initially ended but I kept reminding myself of everything I couldn't tolerate about him, thought about fights we had and how he was ALWAYS in the wrong.

If you keep reminding yourself that he isn't the one for you and the reasons why, your recovery will speed up.

"There are Plenty of Fish in the Sea" - life is way too short to pine on someone who doesn't want you. Go out and find a better catch!!!

Good Luck!

such a hard question to answer, in my experience guys seem to be able to switch off so much more easier than women and are able to just walk away. i dont know if that means that they never really loved you in the first place or that they are just more 'matter of fact' about stuff. us women do like to pick the arse out of things and over anaylize. i blame romance movies ! they fill our heads ( women ) with how if you walk away or he leaves you, in time he will realise he s made a big mistake and come after you cause he loves you so damn much and we welcome them back with open arms..well, thats a load of old sh1t and i have never known this to happen. i wish that we could have the same on/off switch that they seem to have, would make things so much easier and heart hurt so much less. try not to keep checking if he s gotten in touch, i hate that feeling of rushing home to see if you have a message only to come home to nothing, try and keep yourself busy and all you can do is wait for time to go by cause eventually it will start to hurt less and you will find somebody that will love you with a whole heart xx
