I'm thinking of excuses to see her but I can't, it would be stupid.

I hadn't thought of it like a grieving process but I guess it kind of is because I've cried lately on more than one occasion.
It is definitely a grieving process. You lost her.

For me, when I went through something similar with a mentor, it took 2.5 years to finally get over it. And I only got over it when I finally realized I really could survive without him and that the things he gave me I could get from other people and places. And when that finally sank in, I found I could finally move on. But it took the help of my T and it sounds like yours doesn't know how to help you.
