Aww Reed I am sorry. To let go...hmm stop all contact. Get your life back in order. Do what is best for you not the other. Stay with loved ones. Go to Cancun and have fun. My sister did to relax her stress. She feels 10X better. Good luck.

Dude, WTF? Are you guys on here like a bunch of little girls? How about grow some balls and stop being a pansy, no woman in this world is worth all this drama. Even if I was dating Angelina Jolie, I would not be posting this kind of crap on here making you sound like a little girl. I bet these women you guys cry over aint even all that great. Be a man and stop crying like a little baby, most hot, intelligent, decent women are definitely not attracted to weak, girly men!

Maybe I'm just really callous, but I Don't let exes get to me as long as you've let this woman get to you. The exception here is last year my ex contacted me to let me know why she broke up, but had a guy(father of her child) and wanted to try to have some rendevouz with me. So it felt like I was gettin' stabbed again because she didn't tell me the full story(her BF told me).

But it always hurts first. Eventually the pain goes away. I do a ton reflecting and thinking(ENFJs tend to do this a lot), and it just goes away in a few days, a week tops, though I've never ran out the following friday to meet a bunch of women.

But you gotta let that fish go. You'll always have memories and every now and then you might have a flashback, but you have to keep pressing forward and eventually you meet that woman that makes you stop thinking about her and others.

That's how I hope it ends for me at least.

I agree with Prince_Frog and Raena. If someone's not good for you, take that person out of your life. If there are kids involved, it's tougher, but if you have no reason to communicate with an ex and it hurts to do so, don't do it.

I don't have a problem with people being good friends with exes, but I wouldn't do it. It's usually more trouble than it's worth. With my past two exes I've had to tell them I don't want to talk to them anymore because it was keeping me from moving on. You could tell this lady once that you're done talking to her and if she keeps contacting you, I see no problem in ignoring her calls, texts, emails, etc.

In the meantime, just focus on yourself. Get out, exercise, be with friends, read some books, or whatever else interests you. The less time you spend thinking about this woman, the better.

Man... sorry to hear that.

I wish I had some good words to tell you.

Time.

Time usually helps.

That's probably about all you can hope for.

Don't like it then don't respond no one is asking you. You would be surprised what some people are worth.

Dude, hear me out. I don't mean to offend but you need to work on yourself. I see some of these dudes on here bending backwards and being total doormats for some woman and I can't even understand it. There are about 3 billion women in this world, and being so dependent on a woman, in my opinion is a sign of weakness and not being whole as a person.

I am 35 years old and one thing I won't ever do is kiss some woman's ass, I don't care if she is Angelina Jolie or Pamela Anderson. Trust me, the way you express yourself, I can tell a lot of women out there will use you like a little puppy, then discard you like a piece of garbage.

I'm 44 so I more then understand where your coming from & yes there are women just as thier are men who like to use people. I've been used myself more then once but this is a special case for me & it's hard to let go more so then usual. Most of the time I'm able to just pick up & go this is different & I don't know why.

BTW Pamala is BUTT ugly!
