This probably isn't very responsible of me but your story has touched my heart

Torment yourself for a good 18 months whilst bingeing on every substance you can get your hands on. Stay in contact, as friends, and suppress all your feelings when you're around her, frustrating yourself to the point of screaming. Never stop thinking about her. Get into a serious state of denial, whilst simultaneaously loathing yourself for getting into that state. Drink more, start hanging out with people you wouldn't normally be in contact with, people she hated. Theyll convince you she was a bitch, but you'll only agree on the surface. Start feeling a bit more depressed as the loneliness creeps in and you start to really drift apart. Get with a few girls in a meaningless, futile and ultimately dissapointing waste of time. Then find out that she's moved on, seems to have forgotten about you, is still lying to you, and worst of all, has got with one of ur close friends/family. Become extremely angry. Yes, feel the anger cleanse your spirit! Direct your spitting venom of hate right at her soul - and that stupid tnuc she got with! As the anger calms, you get a breakthrough. Consider enacting hilarious revenge. Enact hilarious revenge (optional). Realise you deserve better, and start feeling great, invigorated and glad to be single and alive. Realise you don't need to rush about like a twat trying to find a replacement, because no-one can. Equally new and fulfilling experiences and people dawn on your horizon.


^^^^^^Well, that worked for me....


Edit: Apart from the revenge bit. Wish I had really, because my friend Sarah is the queen of post-relationship hilarious revenge. One example: Break into ex's newly carpeted house with spare key whilst they are on holiday. Fill watering can. A few packets of cress. Soak brand new thick pile cream carpets thoroughly, sew cress seeds everywhere. Turn up heating to full blast. Laugh your fucking arse off when they come home to a lovely salad garden in their living room.

added to 'things i must do before i die' !!

1. i took her off my fav fives
2. i have been on a coke binge
3. i have been on a drinking binge
4. i wank it like 10 times a day
still doesnt help

Same thing happened to me a few years back. And yes, it fucking sucks arse.

The only thing that will help, unfortunately, is time. If your heart is broken it naturally takes the body quite some time to get over it. 6 months is not unusual.

What I did to get over it was the following:

1) I drank like a fucking whale.
2) I stopped smoking reefer and taking drugs (the downers were too much to bear when I was sad)
3) I must have shagged about 15 chicks in that period.
4) EVENTUALLY, I met another, much prettier girl who made me forget all about that backstreet whore I dated before her.
5) ....
6) Profit!!!

Also hanging around with mates pretty much ALL the time helps. Try not to spend too much time alone and if you do, do all the things you love.

This is tried and tested and works pretty well. If not, get the doctor to give you some anti-depressants. They work fucking well for a broken heart.

This is pretty much what i did in similar situation, and it worked a charm

A definite +1 on spending a lot of time with mates. Makes everything easier to deal with and when you're on your own you can start thinking too much and that's what gets you worse.

You might as well put your efforts into something creative man. Loads of people would kill for the range of emotions you're going through right now; desperation, loneliness, regret... you've got it all at your fingertips. And you never know how good it is till it's gone...

[xarcane]

Doublepost sorry. May as well direct you to the worst chat-up lines topic.

For sure,

When we broke up I was a fucking mess, considering how she broke up with me, (shagging another bloke), its the worst feeling in the world.

I started going to gym as well and working myself into a heaving mess, which is great as well as you are then too tired to think about shit. Plus I ended up getting really healthy and fit (except for the excessive drinking and smoking).

Just use this (precious) time when you are actually single to improve your character. Focus on doing all the things you want to with NO ONE to answer to. Come home at 4 in the morning, vomit in the hallway, sleep in that very vomit and wake up to angry housemates. You gain a reputation for being "fun" this way.

This also sounds totally gay but what I did was I bought a diary (not a chick diary, just one so I could keep track of events and shit) and i made sure it was filled with things to do. Visiting friends, going to parties, concerts, doing mad shit like bungeejumping etc. Just fill up your spare time with badass shit and eventually you find out you are having a fucking blast without a girlfriend.

The only thing that sucks is the fact that NOTHING will make you feel better now. You literally have to sit through this shit for (and you say it was 3 years?), probably around 6 months (maybe even more) until you are totally over it. There is no getting around this unfortunately, but if you spend that time doing mad shit and keeping yourself occupied, you find you wont even care after a while...

Enjoy the freedom while it lasts...

And ignore the stupid insensitive posts of other users on here, if anyone has ever had their heart ripped out before, you know how much physical pain it actually causes and I wouldnt wish it on anyone. Good luck, you will be fine (eventually).

:note: not even on my worst enemy (if i had one)


my advice is just to avoid her as much as possible.

don't talk to her mates or anyone that is friendly with her, don't attempt to find out how she's feeling - if she's feeling crap it'll get your hopes up if she's feeling good it'll crush you she's not feeling the same way you are.

I went through this shitty patch of going out at night then just bailing home at like 2am cos i just couldn't be fucked with any social situation - i would just go home listen to whiney acoustic music (sean lennon etc) and smoke a ton of ciggarettes - took alot of pills during that time (was worth it cos for a couple hours i would feel good but the come downs were HORRENDOUS like a actual nightmare material).

Eventually i just stopped thinking about her. now she's living with my best mate (as a flatmate) i still get the occasional pangs of heartache when i go round though

[jolly wailer]

wow you all got trolled

[morro_e]

good thread!

[diablo]

shoot up a school

Shoot up wherever you may be!!!!

The riskier the location, the better the rush!

Might I suggest Heroin as the substance of choice!!!!!


Shooting speed or coke just keeps you awake longer and gives you more time to dwell on negative shit!

[the acid never lies]

improve your character. Focus on doing all the things you want . . . fill up your spare time with badass shit and eventually you find out you are having a fucking blast without a girlfriend.

Truth.

This is also when somebody else comes along in your life - if you're loving life who wouldn't want to be a part of that?

[the artful dodger]

3 years is along time she might come back to you, just dont beat yourself up about it. My ex broke up with me and asked me back a few months later, i said no becuase we had become such good mates in that time and i didnt wanna ruin that (even though she claimed she was in love with me). Just take a shower, get some drinks in, pull some next girl, and try and become mates with your ex if you want another chance. Lifes a bitch in a relationship with time, and we are all getting fucked on the side, just dont let it get to you becuase you will just fuck yourself up.

FFS NOOOOOOOO

SSRI's are the devil in pill form, yeah they work great for 40% of people that take them (then you gotta think that at least half of those are due to placebo) but the other 60% either feel worse, kill themselfs or worst of all become blunted and emotionless.

FUCK SSRI's and if you want proof there all a crock of shit, the 'new mirical antidepressant' is some form of Non-SSRI, a selective serotonin reuptake ENHANCER. Now what the fuck.

MAOI's are not much better, neither are tricyclics.

DO NOT TAKE ANTI-DEPRESSANTS.

[tr0tsky]

I'm still waiting for that picture....

[snypadub]

I know your going through a tough break up and imma let you continue but katie and peter where the biggest break up this year
