It's been six months since my gf and I broke up... I haven't moved on... I still love her so... I thought for a while that we were still the best of friends but lately it didn't seem like so... she's not wearing our friendship ring anymore and have given me all the excuses for it... we only see each other once a week and still she chooses to hang out with our other friends... she's been almost always hanging out with this smooth guy lately... and it hurts... and I am really jealous... but I'm trying to hide it... I never told her how I felt about this and I've stopped expressing my love for her since I realized that no matter what effort I put in trying to win her back I won't be able to... but deep within I never stopped loving her... I am hurting everyday... and this jealousy makes me hurt more... I've tried to divert my attention to other things and even to other people but it's not working... I been giving myself a lot of time and effort to feel better but it's not working either... and now seeing her with this smooth guy even if they are just friends makes me really feel bad... have you ever been in this situation? what are your thoughts about this?

First of all, I feel sorry for the pain you are going through. And yes, this has happened to me before.But there comes a time when you must accept the fact that she really no longer wants you as a boyfriend, and you will have to move on. I myself do not remain friends with my exs, I do not wish to see them all of the time, maybe you need to try to start hanging out at differant places where she will not be.She has moved on, now you must do the same, find you another girl that will love you for you.You can not keep living in the past, what you had is no more.The sooner you accept this the better off you will be.

i've tried it once and it's really annoying because all you can do is be jealous! you can't do anything else but stare and watch them do the things you've been dreaming of doing. lol.;-)

Yeah I have been before. I understand how you are feeling. Also before when my ex and I broke up and he already found someone new. It always hurt to be jealous without having any right to be so. Sometimes when I feel like that I just talk with my best friend and we do our best to just make me feel good by making fun of the other party lol.

i haven't been in this situation but i do have a friend who experienced this. he tried so hard to forget about his past but no matter how much he avoided it, all the memories would still play back. right now, he is feeling better. he just got himself some things that would make him happy even without the girl he liked and soon, he realized that she's not all that. there are still other things that can make you happy.
