I am also in the same place – it’s been three months and I still think about him constantly even though we don’t speak or have any contact. I ran into him unexpectedly last weekend and I had a huge panic attack. Some things you can do that might help ease the pain:
– Write him an “unsent letter”. Get everything down on paper as if you are speaking to him. Be brutally honest. But then destroy the letter instead of sending it to him.
– Meditate! That really is the answer to pretty much all emotional turmoil.
– Maybe stop dating for awhile – just a month or two. If you’re really not over your ex then you’re just going to compare all guys you meet to him, and it’s not really fair to the men if you’re pursuing a relationship with them that you’re not ready for. Not dating also gives you time to connect with yourself and rediscover some interests and hobbies that you may have been neglecting.
– Exercise and focus on your health. Not only does it boost your mood and keep you busy, but it also makes you look better!
– Remember that your feelings are completely normal and valid. And as the others have said, you are absolutely not the only one who goes through this.
