How do I forget him?

The first time I ever fell in love was 5 months ago. I almost had a baby with him and he left me. It has been 5 months and I still have feelings for him. I feel like my life is not worth living because he is not in it anymore. I have found out that he is engaged to another girl and this news broke my heart. There is now no chance of ever being with him again so how do I try to cheer myself up? I have a boyfriend right now who loves me and treats me like a princess but I feel nothing for anyone except my x. Is there anything I can do to get rid of these feeling or do I just have to let time kill my love? I could really use some help please

Answer #1

you dont get over a thing like that you will alwes think of him a love him I hope this is what you wannted to here

Answer #2

well thats just it I have tried to move on I have quit talking to him I deleted his number I dont look at him at school im distancing myslef from him sompletely what you dont seem to understand is im not TRYING to hold on to him IM TRYING TO GET RID OF HIM im not “obsessed” I dont care if he is engaged I just want to remove him from my thoughts wich I cant seem to figure out how. I have accepted that obviously he didnt love me I KNOW THAT im not stupid I am doing what I can to remove him from my life and im doing a pretty dam good job at it but thats not what im having trouble with, removing him from my life is easier than removing him from my mind. I think I am 95% over him I know that but what I cant understand is why I keep thinking about him, im almost over him. when I think about him its not like “o I wish I was with him” it more like “I wonder what he is doing right now,and how he is” that kinda thing…I AM NOT ASKING HOW TO GET OVER HIM because I already am IM ASKING HOW TO STOP THINKING ABOUT HIM. so telling me to move on and stop thinking that he loves me doesnt do any good because thats not my problem

Would you I prefer I lay on the platitudes? Give it time. You’ll move on. You’ll find someone else to love. Better to have loved and lost. The right guy is out there for you. There’s plenty of other fish in the sea? Sorry, I dont see the point in covering up the truth. If you were looking for sympathy you’d have gone to your friends. Bottom line is, he cant have loved you very much if he got engaged. He got over you pretty quickly and people dont get engaged in a few days. You dont want to face reality, that is up to you. You’re keeping yourself from moving on. You want to move on, accept that things were obviously not meant to be between you two, rationalize it however you must, it was bad timing, you guys are in different places, whatever it takes, and then let it go… There’s no magic trick to accepting that its over. You have to deal with the pain of that. I dont know how to make that better. It’s going to hurt. But I have no doubts you will find someone you truly love.

Answer #4

I was 16 and no I do not look at photos or anything like that I am ditancing my self frm him but I dont know how to get him out of my thoughts and he did love me he just recently got engaged so it wasnt a fantasy it was real if your trying to help me all you are doing is making me feel worse I know I screwed up with the pregnancy thing but thats not what im asking for help please try to be kinder

Answer #5

You almost had a baby with a guy you’d known for 5 months?

bangs head against wall

perhaps you’ve learned your lesson? And you wont attempt to have a baby at the age of 15 with some guy who is not likely to stick around?

Time. It really is the only thing that will help. And if you’re still doing things to remind you of him (looking at pictures, listening to songs, checking up on him on social sites), stop… Also, he’s already engaged? What type of guy gets engaged a few weeks after breaking up with someone? Either he was seeing her on the side, or he never really had feelings for you. So why are you pining over this fantasy you had of the guy? The guy you fell in love with doesnt exist except in your imagination… Might as well learn to let go of the fantasy and appreciate the guy in front of you.
