writes:Recently my boyfriend broke up with me, and I feel torn apart. I can't seem to grasp my mind around the fact that we are not together. I need help moving on, finding my footing again, and regaining the desire to leave my house. Perhaps providing some background might shed some light on the situation, we met through Eharmony and endured a long distance relationship, separated by 3 hours. During that time I fell in love with him, and I thought him with me. For my entire life I have remained incredibly guarded and never let break ups get to me for more than a day, at this point it's been two months. My friends are continually there for me, my roommate has been amazing bringing me places and having friends around, but everything I do makes me wish even more that he was here.When he broke it off, we kinda left it open ... which leads to me where I am now. How long is too long? How long should I wait before I throw in the towel and just realize he's just jerking me around. I've never been at this point in my life before ... please help

 You need to let go. Easier said than done, I know, but you need to try your hardest to do that. Long distance relationships rarely work out, and trying to squeeze into the small percentage of couples that make it, is, almost pointless I'm afraid to say. I remember getting dumped by my "first love," and it took me months and months as well. It's hard, and you hold on for a long time hoping that they'll realise how much they love you and come back, but they don't. The best advice I can give you is to accept that you're going to be hurting for a while, and let yourself get it out of your system. Don't try to stop thinking about him, because you'll just think about him more. There's no set time limit to when you'll get over it, but I assure you that you'll know when you do. Letting yourself go through this will only make you stronger, and remember it's okay to lean on your friends, they want you to be happy and they'll work harder than hard to ensure that you are. Ice cream doesn't hurt, either :P
