A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

hello everyone! i have a question that most of you will probably think is dumb but oh well here it goes...how long do you think it is normal to still be hung on your ex? I want to be able to move on so badly but I just think about what we had and how nobody can come close to it. (he was 15 im 14) so i guess he was a little more mature than the boys in my grade. he knew how to make me feel like i was so loved. we are still friends n all but its still very hard to cope with the fact that hes gone. He moved on then broke up with his new gf, how can someone just move on like that?? I want to be able to do so as well. please help me get through this!

rcn agony auntLet me tell you something about breakups. They hurt, sometimes real bad. For some it doesn't take much time, for others it does. I know you think about what you had, those thoughts will always be with you. They make up who you are. Like everything else, we learn from experience. I've been single myself for over a year. I've had times in the past of hurt, but now I wouldn't give back the good memories of any of my relationships. I share them with my kids. It also assures them I have a great respect for their mother, and we had some wonderful times that if they were old enough to remember, they would have enjoyed as well.

The memories haunt now, but will be a blessing later.

just-ask-xx agony auntYour question isn't dumb, and I'm sorry but the only answer I can give is: It's different.

Everyone takes longer to move on but you will eventually, I would say that you would never forget your first love and hun, you sound like you have him! I'm not saying that yu should go ot with him again because you'll have loads of more loves before you find your TRUE love...I'm not saying you don't know what love is either! I fell in love when I was 14 and he was 16 and we're still together! Some people will disagree and say that you don't know what love is when you're a 'kid' bit just because they only loved when they were oldies doesn't mean it's the same for everybody!

What I would suggest to get over him is get together with some friends and have a girlie shopping day or a big sleepover :)

Me and my bf, well fiancee, have been togetherfor years now and we're still happy :) And we got engaged when I was 17 too, and you're right, mature men are way better, probably why I'm with the dope that I seem to love and I've never been happier, anyways I know you haven't wrote to hear me babble on about how great my bf is so I'll stop lol :)

Hope this is some help! Love just-ask-xx and reply if you want to!!
