Hi getting over someone,
I was the person that sent a guy a similar email (after several phone conversations and face-to-face talks) and had to stop taking his calls and returning his emails because he would not listen when I said I needed space. I loved spending time with him and actually miss him very much, but he was so clingy and unwilling to allow space for us to be individual people and a couple. The same thing happened to me before him and again after him. I have been on both ends and I think meeting someone new will help you move on and practice your new behaviors. Good luck, it is hard being lonely and missing someone.
