Teenage romance breakup because of University. How do I get over it?

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

Hello everyone,

Only last week my boyfriend of 2 years went to university a 2 hour train ride from me. On Wednesday, I asked him if we could talk more as I missed him, and he then broke up with me saying the distance was too much and he needed to concentrate on his work now.

I believe him, he didn't do too well in his exams and I guess he didn't want any distractions. But now I am so devastated. I did not see this coming, we had just got back from holiday together and had an incredible time, both agreeing we would try and make it work. He must've panicked.

Now I am stuck. I go to uni tomorrow so I guess it's a fresh start. But you know the deal, I keep checking his facebook and looking at his pictures, even spoken briefly on facebook chat because I miss him and don't know what to do. I deleted his number from my phone so I don't get tempted to call him.

I need advice from people who have been here before and got through it. I really want to see and speak to him but know it's not feasible. Someone make me feel better? Thanks

tennisstar88 agony auntLet me start off by saying it's a bad idea to enter uni in a relationship. Trust me, I was engaged when I first started uni. You meet so many new potential suitors..plenty of eye candy!

Stay off FB for a while.. I'd even delete and block him off your FB so you're not tempted to contact him, or torture yourself by checking his page. Focus on starting a new chapter in your life.

You will meet sooo many new people, attend parties, make new friends, study in the library till the wee hours of the night with your study groups, there's pubs/bars around school of where you can meet up with your pals on a study break. Believe it or not but pretty soon you will forget about your ex.

Give yourself some time for a good cry...then think to yourself it's time to move on because the good part of your life is just starting!!

I don't really have much experience with that kinda thing(I'm 13), bug my advice would be to try and move on if he doesn't seem to want to make it work with you. hope I helped even though I don't quite meet your specifications:)
