How to forget my ex?

HarshithaSanikommu profile image

It's been few months since I broke up with thus guy. But I am not able to forget him. I am an over-thinker and I keep imagining situations where he is with me in the room and watching me. How do I get him off my mind?

It’s only been a few months honey it will ease with time.. it’s obvious you still love this guy is there no chance of a reconciliation?? With most of us being over thinkers it will be much harder to accept in some way love does funny things to us it sounds to me that maybe your not quite ready to be apart

He cheated on me with many girls for 8years. And he clearly told me that he doesn’t love me. I don’t think there’s a chance for reconciliation

forget about trying to get him off your mind....do something constructive....do something not so constructive....your life shouldn't revolve around a fellow that doesn't deserve you.

Wow I know that feeling

As hard as it seems now it will eventually be a distant memory how do I know “I’ve been there” when my husband cheated I got severe manic depression and anxiety and eventually I got PTSD because of the trauma I experienced I’ll say trauma because I was traumatised by his affair it turned me into someone I didn’t know totally messed with my head and self confidence everything was destroyed...i stuck with this man as I was madly in love with him and I was so scared to lose him....well that’s what I thought anyway I forgot how to love myself so I made him my everything the thing is when you make someone your everything when you lose it you feel you have nothing...how can one person do so much damage to another by cheating I discovered it’s because I allowed it??? I haven’t been good to myself I even forgotten who I was at one point but then you have to start taking care of yourself he’s not worth anymore of your time he’s proven he is not trustworthy your better off out of it trust me self love is so much more then a no love or trust relationship...I’m sorry it’s long winded but I had the wind kicked out of me when I was cheated on and it’s took a long time to build myself up again I wouldn’t ever let someone hurt me like that again your worth so much more you’ve just got to believe in yourself

Thankz so mu h for this, I needed it

Had went though the same thing with my first true love. I had to end it, but it takes time to forget someone you loved. Just remember he wasn’t good for you, there’s someone better out there for you. Keep yourself busy, don’t go into another relationship too soon, then start dating again. Good things do happen. ❤️
