The one thing you cant do is push it. Time is very important. You can try to speed up the process by say, going out on the rebound, or forcing yourself to stop being upset, but youll only end up in denial. Then one day you will realise youre fine, youre over it.

If you've known each other for that long chances are your long term friendship will work out nod If thats what you want. Carrie makes a fair point, but its different for everyone. I was with my ex for 3 years when we broke up, and we realised that we werent as close to any of our friends anymore, so we depended on each other. We still turned to each other when we were brought down by the break up, which was only possible, I think, becuase there were no hard feelings and no 3rd party involved, and we still cared for each other. So now, a year later, were over each other in that sense, but still best friends, and still tell each other everything shrug ight work for you might not...

But also, for me, wine, chocolate, movies, and knowing there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Youve got to keep beleiving that, and know that you just have to be patient and wait for the storm to pass.

PS hug Hang in there Butterscotch



Thanks Sususanh! I apreciate that!

I would love to continue to have a friendship with him if that is all I can have of him. I have always said his friendship meant more to me than anything. He is a very special person to me.


No problem wink Im sure you will keep your friendship in the long run if its like that, even if its difficult at first. Have faith honey hug

In the past it was easy. They did something stoopid so, I was over it without a blink of an eye. I soon despised the very air that had the audacity to fill their lungs, keeping them "above ground". After a few nights out with good friends and meeting some cuter guys, I forgave, took my lumps, and moved on.
biggrin

Then... I fell in love for real... sad

He was my "best friend". Circumstances at the time moved him away and there were too many questions in my heart that would not let me follow him. I had to let go of someone that I still loved. There were places around town that I could not bear to visit due to the memories. We kept in touch (note to all: do not keep in touch!!). Meanwhile 2 years went by... What made me "get over" him, ironically enough, was his trying to come back. I realized why it came apart the first time. Why I had doubt in my heart. Also, in 2 years, I had changed. I was glad that all my questions were answered and I could finally move on without regret. Time is the real remedy.
Shake....shake, shake, shake.

There are some people you simply can´t get over with, unless you find someone who´s much, much, much hotter and smarter and sexier but even then you still might long for the one who´s long gone...time might help but sometimes that´s not true because no matter how much time passes away, you simply can´t replace that person because of what you see in him/her and especially because of what you see in yourself and the person you become when you are with her/him...


Then again, I wouldn´t be KoolEaze if it wasn´t for my special recipe...some of y´all might remember my recipe on the "How to fight a cold thread" a while ago, well, here´s this one :


Smoke weed.....get real blunted for a while ...reprogram yourself...smoke some GOOD weed on a regular basis but not for too long.


Listen to some Prince music..we all do that anyway but I mean seriously, dig out all your bootlegs, check out some old stuff and new stuff, blast it til your neighbors think you´re weird.

Watch Sign of the Times....daily for at least three weeks.


Watch Lovesexy every now and then, at least twice a week.

Watch more live footage.


Crank up Sade and Maxwell´s Urban Hang Suite...don´t forget the weed, da good ol´ ´erb.

Do some jogging...at least three times a week for at least 30 minutes (minimum)

Get your ass to the gym...pump some iron...

Eat well, check out some restaurants if you´re money isn´t too tight

Drink some good wine..or some cheap stuff you really like ( Californian rose etc.)

Meet some friends, socialize....


Be reclusive...lock yourself up for a couple of days....


Have some hot,steamy, wild, rough sex if you know someone of the same mind.

Smoke some weed. Check out new albums. Check out some good RnB on one of those Sunday night radioshows...turn up the volume.


Spend time in the local library...this works miracles..read...don´t smoke weed, and no rose wine here.

Go and buy some cool magazines.


Redecorate your appartement....invest some time and money..

Have some hot sex action in your newly decorated, renovated appartement.


Go swimming.

Go for a walk.

Go downtown, do some shopping.

Travel a bit more, including short trips.


Spend some time online.

Do something helpful, voluntary work or something.


Rediscover your spirituality.

Write letters.

Write e-mails.


Write stuff.

Cook more, especially for friends..


Check out new hot people.


To be continued.....
" I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?"

I don't think I ever have gotten over a break up, any break up I've been through.
In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

the best thing about a break up is that you have the chance to find somebody better than your ex....

the worst thing about a break up is trying to severe the emotional ties that binded you...
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

I've only had one relationship that was long enough for the break-up to truly qualify as something that shook my world. To be perfectly honest, I still have an emotional wound from it even though it was five years ago, probably because we never talked it through properly afterwards. neutral

I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I had to put her
Six feet under
And I can still hear her complain


I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I knew I miss her
So I had to keep her
She's buried right in my back yard


I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, but I had to kill her
She bitched so much
She drove me nuts
And now I'm happier this way


I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I had to put her
Six feet under
And I can still hear her complain

to be honest I've never had a chance to really mourn the end of a relationship, because both times I met someone new really soon and I know I know rebound and all that, but my mum's advice rang true - there's nothing like a new love to forget about the old one. Anyway, I've been with this rebound guy for 12 years now! cool
