I keep thinking that we may get back together - how can I get this feeling to go away?

Question - (19 September 2007) 2 Answers - (Newest, 20 September 2007)
A male United Kingdom age 36-40, *ndy00 writes:

My girlfriend broke up with me because she was going to University and thought we'd struggle to continue to maintain our long distance relationship (We had maintained a long distance relationship of 240 miles for the past 2 years. In that time we met up on 13 ocaisions for a bout a week or two at a time, and on one ocaision just a few months before she split with me, I even brout her along on a family holiday to Cuba)

Right now, I'm still stuck as far as emotions go. I'm upbeat for a few days or so, and then stuck thinking about it for atleast a day after that.

I now would really like a relationship again.. I'm not sure I'm ready to move on, but I'd like to think somebody else could help me through, and then hopefully, we'll have something that turns serious.

That said, I'm still wondering if there is any hope at all of me and my ex one day having something again. Everybody tells me "no" and a big part of me says "no", but part of me is saying "Maybe in the future". I'd quite like this part to just go away, because I think it's giving me some form of false hope.

What do you think?

Andy00 agony auntYeh, you did reply. And thank-you again.

Sorry if it seems like I'm posting questions often (I've gotten better) just certain things change my moods. Most of the day I've felt fine about everything, then it only took 1 little thing to remind me of her, and I'm immediately dwelling on what's happened.

It's not that it feels like I won't ever love again. It just doesn't feel like I'll love anybody the same way again. Do you know the feeling?

Anyway, thanks for giving me a lift. I need those wherever I can get them. Thank-you very much.

leanne.od agony aunti think i replied to a message of yours earlier this week, and i just want to say, it does get easier, i promise.

i know how difficult coming to terms with a break up is, honestly i do, but hanging on to a maybe is not a good thing. physcologically, you need to realise it is false hope, she conveniently broke up with yoy when she was going to uni, do you think she is pining for you in her dorm? because i don't think she is giving you a second thought, she's moving on and so should you.

you'll meet your mrs right when you least suspect it and then it'll feel better, but don't go looking for it, just concentrate on getting over this girl and then things will be clearer.

good luck (again)
