I Can't Get Over My Ex-boyfriend

I was with my ex for 8 years, we lived together for 6 of those years. We broke up 2 years ago now and he started dating someone else, (who now lives with him). They have been together for over a year. 10 months ago he changed his number and I haven’t been able to get in touch with him since then. I can’t seem to move on. It has seriously become a problem in my life. I cry all the time and dream about him a few times a week. I feel like if I just had the chance to say goodbye to him, then I might be able to finally move on. I am thinking about writing him a letter asking him to call so I can say goodbye, but I wonder if his new girlfriend would get mad. We first started dating when I was 14 and moved in together when I was 16, I’m now 24- I think this might be hard for me because I was so young and we basically grew up togeher. He was my best friend for so long and now I feel like he died. I worry sometimes because I’ve gotten drunk and tried to commit suicide over this. How can I move on???

This is something serious. You should be asking a therapist for help. They can help you look for the really important things in life. You should seek help for being suicidle. But most of all if you don’t know him you should get to know him, God can make a huge difference in your life. I have experienced him working miracles. You just have to have faith in him. I know how you feel. I had a boyfriend of 2 years and it took me about 2 years to get over him. But by getting high all the time I seemed to forget about him but only when I was high. So then I began needing to be high just to be happy. I called him one time after that and heard his voice… then I never really thought much about him afterwards. I guess you should try to get in touch with him and tell him Goodbye. If he has hurt you in the past think about how much better you deserve and go out with your girls to a club and find you a man who you desrve. I hope you will be okay!
