How do you get over someone who has been your whole world for the past 5 years?

[Soul Prophet]

The very first thing u need to do is let go of hope of this working out. It’s clear that she doesn’t want to be with you anymore. You need this space in order to get over her, i know you care about her but you can’t have her in your life and move on at the same time. give yourself 30 days of no contact, ideally 90 days. Talking to your ex girlfriend will not help you get over her whatsoever. In fact, it’ll only make things worse. Checking up on her on facebook and twitter is simply self-torture. Stop doing it. Block her on facebook so you can’t follow her, remove her from your newsfeed, do the same on twitter and any other places that remind you of her.

In the meantime, focus on the bad things about her and all the reasons that you dont want to be with her anymore. This will reaffirm the fact that she’s not right for you and make it easier to move on. it will reaffirm the fact that she’s not the person you want to be in a relationship with. this may not feel natural at first but it will stop you from sulking and moping about the loss.

These are just a couple tips that i think will help you.
