What? Have I been mourning this break up too long?

I know that sucks. no your not waiting too long. Some people say mourning lasts about half as long as the relationship. so after a one year relationship you should wait 6 months. I’ve never found that to be true. I say that you should give yourself as much time as YOU think you need. not how long other think. you usually know best but sometimes it does take a friend to get you back on your feet. The world will keep spinning while you make peace with what happened. I would also say not to talk to him. at least not yet. just tell him you need time. a girl I was crazy about dumped me a few years ago and I didn’t talk to her for 6 months. almost 3 years later, now we’re best friends:) But you need to get some distance on this whole thing. give yourself a few months and then rethink it:) maybe you’ll see you need more time and thats fine, lord knows I would. But maybe your lucky and then you’ll be ready:)

I dated a girl for over 3 years, and we broke it off july last year. I still have feelings for her. Even after a rebound g/f (that was a horrible mistake…ugh…).

I was only with my ex for about 7 months on and off. It took me over a year to get over him and I only let him go then and stop worrying about it because I met someone else who was worth my time. All my exs in between then were basically rebounds, but then I came across someone who actually turned me around and broke me of it. Dont worry about how long it takes. You could be over it tomorrow or forever from now. It all depends on how fast you let yourself get over it. You could let it bother you or go out and do other things with your life to help keep it off your mind.

@torturdchaos did you ever try to get back with her?
