one thing that will help ease the paint is to start seeing other people, even if you have to still be in contact with your ex..the excitement of something new more than overcomes the heartache of a failed relationship.the sooner you see others the sooner the pain will evaporate!
since it was only a 3 day thing, the healing will be quick, now from time to time if you still need to be around your ex those feelings may pop up again and this is normal and to be expected(don't beat yourself up..happens to the best of us!) it important to do your best to control them so you don't hurt yourself anymore.
if it was a mutually agreed break up then friendship is still possible,
i have successfully navigated those waters before but it was a mutually agreed break up( things just weren't working out!)
hope everything works out for you & hope this helps good luck!

It wasn't mutual at all. He broke it off because of my idiocy. All I'm doing is pretending it doesn't hurt while I'm around him. I even made up some lies to throw him off. Plus I'm used to acting normal, so I can mask it well.
Although I am young, I don't care. Love and relationships are officially off limits to me for the rest of my life. This is a conscious decision I have made, and I will stick to it no matter what doubts or second thoughts I have. I can't rely on anyone but myself. Every life experience I've had has reinforced that. I don't need anyone in my life to love me or I to love them. Happiness can be found in many ways without people mucking up my life.
Besides, I'm a tried and true loser on this planet. No one should have to put up with me and my stupidity. I am worthless, a pile of sputum and bile on this world. People are better off without me burdening their lives.
