Why can't I fall for someone new? Am I hung up on my ex?

Question - (8 March 2012) 3 Answers - (Newest, 9 March 2012)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

In August, my boyfriend of a year and 8months broke up with me. I was completely head over heels for him and i was devastated, we were close for a few months after but now we don't talk. I lost my virgnity to him and i've never been so close to someone in my life. I don't want to be back with him and I feel like I am over him but I haven't fallen for anyone else since.

I guess my question is why? Am I still subconsciously hung up on him?

I only feel like I miss him as my best friend but what do you all think?

And how can I try to help myself look at other guys in the ways I used to?

You will be OK, give it more time (and, perhaps, less thought). First loves are important and impressionable, and they do change one's outlook. Just be patient.

From my experience, it turned out that i was just looking for someone who was exactly like him when really you don't need that,

it is your subconcious mind but dont worry it will fade but not completely go...

You miss the fact he was someone to talk to whenever you needed to talk

I think you should try to enjoy being single and not rush into being in another relationship

Trust me you will be ok

i know exactly how you feel, it is horrible, you are obviously not ready to be with someone new, my ex finished with too and it took me two years to find someone new someone i actually love more!

just give yourself time its like a grieving process and when the time is right you will find someone new but only when your ready!!
