Love help: I thought i could move on. - Help.com

I thought i could move on.

As some of you guys know im recentally divorced and triing to get back out there if you would like to read up on it here are links to my other posts http://help.com/post/215861-i-really-... http://help.com/post/217830-text-msg-... http://help.com/post/218095-this-is-g... . I thought i was over my exwife and after we met last night for dinner i found out that i am but i still love her and there will always be emotions every time i see her wether i want there to be or not. I really want to move on and find someone new but but im a trucker so it makes it hard. the best girl friend i wanted thats seeing someone else i’ve decided not to try and get together with at least untill she breaks up with him if she does. But now i have to figure out how to move on from all that i still cant help but think about my friend. Anyway i guess my question is whats the best way to move on how do you make yourself get over someone?

Time heals all. You can’t make yourself get over someone, you have to realize, little by little that they have moved on.

I am truly sorry for your breakup. It is so painful and even though things didn’t go right we have to remember that it’s takes two people not just one to make it work.

In today’s world “of what’s in it for me” people appear to not want to hang in there when the going gets tough. If their mates have problems, they want out of the relationship fast. Perhaps that is not you but, others feel strongly about it.

I often think when I broke up with someone or them me, that this was just a dress rehearsal. That the real one, the one that I was meant to be with, is still coming into my life.

Each day, in some small way, the pain will be easier to bear. Good luck

It’s certainly not easy to get over someone as Genesis said. Treat it as though you are mourning the loss, these things take time and don’t feel guilty for being sad at times and missing her.

Try and think of yourself, what you could be to better attract someone and have a lasting relationship. Build up your confidence and look into some things you enjoy doing on your own. Once you are content and happy in your own skin you will find yourself attracting like minded people and will have a better chance at happily ever after. It’s worth the effort, I’ve been there and done that myself.

The one for you will come along when you least expect it.

There is no formula on how and when to get better after a broken heart. If there was one, then no one would come up with stories like yours and mine.

Acceptance. That there are some things that cannot be ours.
Acceptance. That there are some things that would out fine, at the end of the tunnel.

And true love is one of them. :)

well, first up is you need to say goodbye to her once and for all, if it really is soo hard to be around her without feeling like that.

otherwise suck it up act mature around her and soon time will catch up and you will get over her.

Time is really the only cure my friend. Though it takes a while. Chances are you will always have feelings for this person, but they will weaken with time. Good luck.

Don’t use the fact that you are a trucker as a crutch not to move on. Make it a point to talk to women when you are on the road. Make friends and call them from the road. Sooner or later you’ll have women in difference cities. Step out of your comfort zone and you’ll stop thinking about your ex wife. It seems like you think about her because you don’t have anything else occupying your time.

If the road is what is getting you think, my old man is a trucker, he always takes these old radio shows and books on tape with him while he drives, told me it really keeps him occupied.

I also agree with sickof /\ get some of those roadside diner girls numbers!
