A female United States age 30-35, *ocketGirl92 writes:

I recently broke up with my boyfriend of almost a year and a half. In the beginning of the relationship it was so great, and we were both so happy. But the past few months we have been getting in little arguments and i've been getting upset with him over little things. I felt like I was not as happy as I could have been and he knew how I felt. I would also start to see guys and unintentionally flirt with them. My boyfriend didn't have a job and dropped out of high school but got his GED. I think that this was also something that upset me with him. When I broke up with him we cried for a little bit before we talked and laughed about the situation making jokes and then when he left he kissed me and told me he loves me. He says that he wants to stay friends with me.

That was Monday, and Tuesday he texted me. He told me that his phone might be shut off and then again to tell me it wouldn't be. We ended up chatting for an hour over texts. Telling eachother how much it hurt and how we were doing. He eventually told me that it hurts to much to talk to me and he might text me again sometime. I really miss him. Was breaking up the right thing to do? Why does it hurt so much? And how to I get over him? He was the first guy I loved and had sex with as well.

Ohhhhw... Uhmm. With my experiences, that was one of the break ups with the good results. Mostly people end up as an enemy but both of you still managed to talk about it and joke too. A year and a half is a good start for your first love.

Moving on, try to keep yourself busy on productive things that could end you up saying its nice that I have done that job.

Hmmmm. Time will heal all wounds. After all you got your ex and yourself a good closure.

The emotion will still be there, of course a year and a half was no joke but it will not be as intense as before.

Enjoy your life now. Don't flirt with other guys yet. Try to give yourself a time.

Be happy and stay happy.

Hope this will help.
