writes: I still love my ex. I was with him twice, and it’s been 10 months since we split up. The thing is, I can’t stand to suffer in silence so I managed to confess it all to him. I really just want him back, but I know it’s not going to happen, so I really want to get over him. I’ve already seen advice and it’s all "go out with friends, have a good time", and "make him jealous", or even "find someone new, don’t show him your true emotions, make him think you’re over him," but I’ve already tried all these and I really don’t know what else to do. I just need some new advice, help me out here please?!! Thanks xx

Set aside 15 minutes a day to think about your ex, all the good things and the bad. Think about him and only him for those 15 minutes. Then get up and do something else until the next day. Don't allow yourself to think about him the rest of the day except for the small time each day you set aside for him.
After a few days or a couple of weeks you are going to find yourself geting sick of having to sit down and think about him when there are other things you'd rather be doing. Or maybe you'll just forget to do it one day. That's when you'll know you are over him for good.

I was exactly the same way. What you need to do is allow yourself to move on. You're probably a little afraid of what it will be like not to have him or someone to hold on to. Let me tell you a secret: you won't die. You won't fall off the earth, and your life will still have meaning.
I used to be so afraid to let go of my feelings for three particular people that I carried them with me for years, never letting them fade away. When I finally got the strength to let them go, I realized how heavy those feelings were and how much better and happier and more vibrant I am without them.
Allow yourself to let go. Maybe meditate on it. Stop tlaking to him about these things, and slowly let out those feelings.
I promise, you'll feel better.
