I did everything, and for 2 long years I think I really have done nothing!

I guess it's better to imagine yourself in my situation:
He fascinates you for no reason at all. Laughed with you, hugged you, cried with you. Then, he just broke up with you with the reason "I am still not ready". You and him had your relationship lasted with no more than a month. You've waited two darned long years for this feeling to be gone and you met other men. Problem is, you still can't darn forget him?
Sorry to make this emotional blunder but please, can anybody, yes anybody...tell me why I thought I did everything to forget him but it ended up that I did nothing?

If you sincerely and seriously love someone, you give and do everything for that person. However, some good things have to end. We do not know why, but it happens. It may be painful, but life goes on. Give yourself time to sulk and to cry, but after that, pick yourself up and continue your life. Bring with you lessons you've learned from previous relationships.

It's a wonderful advice. Thank you. I have done this before but I guess, it's worth trying again.

I agree completely with what russo just said. When you sincerely honestly love someone i don't think you will ever get them out of your heart and mind. I still think about the love of my life even though we aren't together and there is no sign that we would be together.

I am in the same situation as you are now. Unfortunately there is no easy way. I guess what I can give you is first accept things as they are and open your heart. Be with people you love like family or friends. Do things with them (like trips, party, night out) that will keep yourself occupied. If you have a goal regarding your career focus on it. do not try so hard to keep your mind away from the memories because that would not happen. memories are like water they can go through smallest opening, so just let it be. cry if you need to and give yourself more time. Soon you will discover that the pain is lesser now and that you are ready to move on.
I had a very bad break up before that I did not care about my life and was close to ending it by driving like hell after it. It took me years to overcome it and now that "I am sober" I realize that my happiness should not depend on anybody but myself. Even though there are moments when i remember that person and still feel a tinge of pain, I am ready and open to love again. In fact I am now. Time is the only way to heal so give it a chance. I wish you best of luck

whew, you know what its not new actually. ive heard a lot of stories same as your story. and its not alarming, because thats very common to happen in a relationship. its has to sides like a coin, its either happy ending and the other side is hurting, and bad ending. and we should be aware of that from the very beginning. sometimes we do used to set aside that caution, remember compliance will kill us. and it happens very often to us not only in a relationship but in any aspects. and you what? dont loose hope, stand still and move on.

People fall in love and eventually,
somehow, one day they just fall out of it.
It maybe hard but try to move on.
And I guess you should try not to care for him anymore no matter how much you do because sometimes we can't deny the fact that you can mean nothing to someone who means everything to you.
Anyways, don't forget to look on the bright side ^^
remember being in love with each other doesn't always mean you have to be lovers sometimes you just have to be friends ^_^
