I broke up with my ex 2 months ago and I still think about her constantly. We were only together for 6 months, but we had a lot of great memories. I made a thread about this a few days after we broke up to get some differing opinions on if i made the right decision. I think I did, most of my friends/family agree w/ me, and most of the posts on this forum were in agreement. I don't really understand why i can't just let it go, accept my decision, and move on... I think the main reason is b/c she was my first adult relationship and the first girl I had sex with. Maybe that is making it more difficult, i dont know... I've done all the post break up things people say you should do. I've been out of town a few times, got back in the gym harder than ever, and went on a date for the first time yesterday since I broke up. Just seeing what other people's experiences were.

Reflect on why you broke up with her to begin with.

Time. You can speed it along by allowing all emotions to process (aka let them exist without latching on or pushing away) as they surface and taking the stance of observer when your mind runs amok thinking about her.

This is so on the money. You should never forget why you shouldn't be with someone anymore. Remember why that person doesn't deserve someone like you.
