How do I get past our break-up? Post a Reply | Views: 291 | Started By: jessica1137 | Replies: 4 Hi! My boyfriend and I just ended a three year relationship. We were getting to a point that it was time to take it to the next step.....marriage. However, he was very scared. See, he comes from a family that has not had any successful marriages. Therefore, he is afraid of ending up the same way all of his family members did. Right now, we are on a "break," trying to figure out if we are truly meant for one another. For me, I know that I want to spend the rest of my life with him, but he is so scared. I miss him so much, and I know that this is a good time to be on my own and be independent, but it is so hard because I miss him so much. How do I get through this time without him? How do I stop being so sad and depressed? Any suggestions are are welcome!Thank you,Jessica

Stick with friends with alot of cheer. Generally people who are happy most of the time. In time, the happiness and good cheer will catch on. Responded: omoikane   Have faith...everything happens for a reason. It's hard and yes, I suggest doing things that take your mind off him. When you start thinking about him, try to think of other things that may need a good thought or two.Other than that, I'm fresh out of ideas on what to do. It's just going to be tough regardless. Responded: EVA01   Sometimes a little break is good for both sides to think about things without pressure or anything... It sometimes makes u realize how much the other person means to you and how much emptiness there is in their absence...So dont worry much, maybe this break will make him realize how important u r in his life, and make him want a commiment..In the mean time, try to b optimistic and keep urself busy with stuff u enjoy, try socailizing more etc.. Responded: Joda   did you both decide that were giong to take a break?? Is he allowed to see other people?? Responded: dazed&confus
