why does it hurt so much

I advice you to calm down and ask yourself if the reason why you broke up really was that stupid. Write it down. I think at this moment you are more hurt because you are left over alone and feel lost/lonesome. You better go on with your life instead of being fixed on what he is doing. It's good to take some time to grieve, to feel sad, to say goodbye and it's also good to have some extra life experience.

There are actually 3 ways for you to handle this situation, in my opinion. First, is you wait for him. Since you started to talk to him already, you can continue being close to him while waiting for their breakup but there is a chance that they would not. Second, you can be a b**** and try to steal him from that girlfriend of his. You would have to figure out how to do this. Third, like what you did is to completely forget it, get over with it and continue with life. Personally, I would forget the person and continue your life. It is not worth my time wanting to be with someone who does not want me. It may take a lot of risks before that person might come to like me but I am not going to have myself go through that hussle. I would rather spend my time doing something worthwhile in my sense or look for someone worth my time.

I think you are doing the right thing and he is doing the wrong thing. he is lonely without his girlfriend and i think he knows you like him so he is using you to keep himself feeling good and the times you say he ignores you , well he is probably getting attention form his girlfriend or form others so does not need you. you deserve better and it think you should have more confidence in yourself to forget him as a future boyfriend because to be honest he does not sound the type of guy to respect you. if he was a true friend he would care for your feelings but he is jsut using you as a means to keep himself feeling better. stay strong you deserve better :)

Since you have done what you think is right, I admire you for being so brave. Go one with your life and start without him. i know it's not that easy. But you must, and you have started it the moment you deleted/stopped all the communication between you and him. Keep yourself busy with other things. I am sure love is just around. And love will find a way :)

It hurts so much because you expected too much. At first place it was just you who thinks that he might love you back. I'm really sorry to say this but I think you are crying or hurting yourself for a reason. It happened to me too. I am so sad thinking that I'm liking someone whom I thought will the the one that could makes me happy, but I was wrong. I know it's hard but believe me one day you can get over from him.

It hurts because you still like him a lot, I think.Don't delete those contacts and don't try to destroy everything related to him so fast.It's not OK.You need time.Move slow.Don't think about him as your ex, think about him as your friend.If two people are not together anymore, it doesn't mean they can't be friends.At least Facebook friends.If it happens for you to meet him, don't look sad and unhappy, smile at him and tell him you're happy for him.Stop thinking about him so often, don't forget your hobbies, things that you enjoy.Learn to love yourself.

This may sound stupid, but I'd confess to him. Cause I would not want to regret that in later life. I bet you know this too. Furthermore, your still not over him in reality. It seems that your just self suggesting that you hate him or so. But then, the fact is still there. I would just tell him that I love him or had love him. Hating him just because he ignores you isn't the right way. It just feels plain wrong, Anyways, my friend's dad always tells him ( a guy) ,' the world is full of pretty ladies, there are a million, why fret over this one? ' whenever he got heartbroken. Haha. Sorry if it's a bad joke. But then again, for me, I would just then live on. Well, I'm not the kind to be pulled down by others so yea. Btw, it's not what you must do. But what do you want to do. :D wish you all the best! :D
