FOR GIRLS ONLY "how did you get over with your ex?"

My ex and i had a very long relationship it was three years and he was 10 years older than me. I end up breaking up with him and changing my number and and moving somewhere where i didn't know anyone for a months... I did what i wanted to and who i wanted to.. I didn't wanna deal with him he was abusive and controlling.. So i didn't have a hard time getting over that. But now i am married and i have a wonderful husband..

I was 17 when I had my first real relationship breakup and I think it was my hardest one. It took me months to finally get over the guy that broke up with me, but after I realized I was soooo much better off without him. Best thing to do is to just listen and be there for your friend. Talking to someone who cares about you is always helpful. Just reassure her that she doesn't "need" a boyfriend to be a great person and that there is someone out there for her that will treat her great, patience is key. It's good to go out and have fun to take her mind off her current situation as well. Each day will get easier from here on out for her.

It took me a while to get over my ex. I spent time with my friends, talked things out with them. I also had conversations with my male friends not only about the relationship and break up but different things. It took me about a year to fully get over him enough to be able to have a healthy relationship once more.
