writes:I really need advice. Me and my ex boyfriend met 2 years ago in the summer of 2011 we formed a relationship which lasted around 2 months. We ended things because he got a job in a different country and we both mutually because we felt that we could not survive the long distance. So I moved on and it wasn't a big problem for me at the time. However a year later he came back and we continued where our relationship had left off. This time I really fell for him, we survived the relationship this time around until about 8 months in. After we broke up we had no contact for around 3 months. However we are now back in contact but it hurts seeing him as I have realised that I still have feeling for him. The big problem is that he is moving to Australia because he has found work there. He will be leaving in just over a month. We had a late night phone conversation and he admitted to me that he loved me, however he also tells me about how he tries to "get with women" at bars. It really hurts me when he says that, as I don't tell him about men that I have dated after him. I know we can't get back together and it hurts me so much I just need some advice on how to deal with the emotions that I'm currently dealing with. Not seeing him isn't an option as we both have thesame friends. The worst part is that I feel that I don't want anyone else but him.I need to know how I can get over him and finally move on.

 The easiest way is to cut all contact. Get rid of all mementoes. Turn outwards, keep busy, see friends, pursue hobbies and new interests. The past is the past Don't go there. As they say, to move to the next chapter you need to turn the page.
