I’m so sorry to hear of your pain.
Time will make you feel better honey so right now eat some Ice cream and call your girlfriends, has he explained to you why he done this?

It will take a while to get over it, but you will.
Try to spend time with friends that make you happy, and try to do any hobbies you enjoy.

That is very painful. The only cure is going to be time though. It’s going to hurt and you may seem fine for a couple of days, but it will come back once and awhile. Time will help heal.

Don’t forget about good friends. Talk to them about this. Having someone you can talk about everything with and even cry in front of will be very soothing.

As for other things, try to change your surroundings a bit. What I mean is, you probably have had your room arranged in one way while going out with him. Change the layout of your room to something new and fresh. It prevents you from thinking about where “you two watched that movie together”. I would even recommend picking up a new hobby or at least spend some money on yourself and treat yourself nice with something you’ve always wanted. In the early stages, the more things you have going on around you the less time there is to dwell on what happened.

Good luck and if you need anything, the folks here at help are here.

Oh, and don’t talk to him. For what he did, he’s garbage and no matter how many times he says he’s sorry, things won’t change. There are plenty of other prospects other, many of which who will treat you the way you deserve to be treated.

God **** I hate cheaters

Ths is the chance for you to be extremely vindictive. I don’t suggest doing something EVIL, or illegal, but something to make him hurt just as much as you. I was going to smash my ex’s bike, BUUT then decided against it, because that would be illegal, so instead i took all the gifts he gave me, smashed them up, put them in a box, and gave it back to him with a good o’ F YOU note attached. It felt good, it didn’t really help me get over him, but it did feel great. Deff Follow the above advice, it will help you feel better, but vindication is something that makes you feel a little better. remember, Hell hath no fury like a woman’s scorn! So stop speaking to him, cut off all ties, pack up all the stuff he gave you (do whatever you want with it), and do something for yourself, that had nothing to do with him, go have fun, get sloshed with your freidns, it doesn;t matter, just don’t think abou thim!
