How do I get over him? I want to get over him so bad. I am desperate.?

[DymeC]

He's someone I can't have. He has trust issues due to past relationships and so doesn't see dating as something he wants to do. If it was any other guy, I would have gotten over it in a matter of days. But with him, things were always different. He is pretty much my dream guy. Not perfect but he taught me what I want and what I don't want. He's my age, single and we go to the same college. He's the first guy, I've ever had sex with. I feel like I got attached the moment he took my virginity. But gradually, our contact stopped. He stopped texting me and we only saw each other on rare occasions.
I know perfectly well that it's unheathly and that I'm better off without him. And I agree. But I feel like I can't control what my heart feels. I feel stupid everytime I think about him because it's so wrong.
How do I get over him? I just graduated and I'm moving away. I want to stay so bad but I don't know what hurts me more. Being away from him or being around him. I need to get over him. Someone please help.

Do things you love. Fall for someone else.

as you wrote at the beginning.... He is someone I can't have...... so you already know the outcome.
Move forward. please stop thinking about the past. the past no longer exist.... neither the future... the present is the only reality that actually exist but the moment we say The present ...that specific Present is gone to become the past... our mind can bring into the Present images of the Past.... So the Past is in your Present because it is your mind the one retrieving all
that past memories. So stop thinking and retrieving the past and the past will not bother you any more. Probably my way of putting my ideas accross was not a good one. and you will be more confuse.

First you got to ask yourself this: Do you want to get over him?

And I mean really, do you want to? Or do you just think that's what you should do?

If you really honestly want to get over him, then slowly pull away. Don't talk to him, don't have him on Facebook, twitter, etc, and like someone else said, do something you love. Find a hobby and do it, it'll help you forget and move on.

The thing is though, again, do you want to do this? Maybe you should have a talk with him if you really really like him, because that's what it kind of seems like from what you've written, although I don't know the full story. If you want to go that extra mile, ask why he stopped maintaining that contact with you, and how come you guys don't talk like you used to. Rekindling your relationship is a possibility

Again, you can also pretty much ignore him completely and find something else that you enjoy doing to help you get your mind off of him. It's up to you. If you try and rekindle your relationship and it doesn't work out, there's a possibility that you can get hurt, but that shouldn't stop you, because there's also a possibility that it can work out, and it could be really great.

You should really think about what you want to do, and how you feel

Hope I helped in some way!
