writes: Alright I'm going to try to make a long story short.I recently (two days ago) broke up with my boyfriend.We unlike most couples did not want to break up. We had been in a long distance relationship. He lives about one hour from me. Neither of us has our lincense, so we could not drive to eachothers houses. And he is starting high school so he is under quite a bit of stress. and thinking about seeing me only added to it. Anyway, we both still love eachother and we are in alot of pain right now because of the breakup. We both have the same feelings for eachother as we did when we were dating.The reason we broke up is because we never got to see eachother and missed eachother so much that it hurt. so we ended it. but I still miss him so much that it hurts. The only difference between us is that now I get to see him with other girls. And thats going to hurt more then anything. Because I still love him its going to be hard to see him with other people. But I read somewhere that ''love is not selfish'' so I feel like when I see him with other people I'm supposed to act happy because he is happy. Dont get me wrong. He hasnt had enough time to get a new gf yet. But I want to know am I supposed to be happy for him when he moves on?? Even if I'm unhappy?? Should his happiness make me happy?? And most of all what the hell am I supposed to do?!?!? Am I supposed to get back together with him because I still love him and its going to kill me to see him with other people?? Or should I try to be his friend and act happy for him when really I'm dying inside?? Or am I supposed to try to forget about ever knowing him?? Just pretend the whole thing ever happened??Please please help me!!!!!Thanks for your time!!=(

i think it is best if you and your ex just stay friends a long distance relationship doenst work. just tell him you want to be friends and keep in contact with him you will end meeting someone who live near to you. i know its going to be hard because i have done it but trust me you will get over it in due time. xxx
