I usual start being more active with my friends, and getting out of the house more. If he is a guy in his mid 20's or older, I call guys like this a pig.

Hi Jiakhan. I think you might find it more helpful to place your attention back on yourself and your life rather than focusing on the guy. Good suggestion from jerrymichele to seek out your other friends and get involved in activities you enjoy.

Also realize that the reason the guy stopped showing interest may having nothing to do with you at all. It may be all about him and what's going on inside him or in his life.

We all want to assume it's our fault when a relationship ends. But usually it really is about the other person, what they think they need or want or lack. When it is right with a guy you will know it instinctively. Until then consider all failed relationships as learning experiences and perhaps you won't feel so bad about yourself, or so hurt.

Time to go a little further back in time and look at either the first significant relationship that failed, or person who left you without an explanation.

With some relationships where there is not really a relationship happening, we see more into it than really is there and when it folds completely we are left wondering what happnened.

Focus on yourself rather than a failed relationship or perceived failed relationship...you will never find a reason if there was no relationship to begin with...

Hope you feel better soon

Rhiannonsmoon, you are so correct in saying that we never find the reason behind a perceived failed relationship bcoz there wasnt anything to begin with! i was so emotionally dependent on the guy i have mentioned in this thread that when he left me it took me more than a year to get over him. to be honest i still wonder have i really got over him or its just that im in a denial state.

Hi JiaKhan,

Emotions are not like some unwanted trash that we can just dump when we want to. It seems useless to keep on hurting, but it's not actually useless. Your emotions are telling you that "how can you choose to trust such a guy" or "this keeps on happening with me. Why don't you protect me?"

I suspect you may be over-sensitive to rejection; maybe you try to get accepted by other people, ignoring your own warning signals, if any, that this person may not be right for you. I am just speculating to point out to you that you can learn so much about you from this incident and be better at preventing such incidences from happening again.

I found out going to gym or doing any kinds of physical activities like hiking, jogging, swimming help a lot....also, reading inspiring books and watching comedy movies help as well.....

don't be hard on yourself...

It can take six months and another man! That's what it took with my boyfriend before my husband. Especially if you've been going with the person for a pretty good length of time; it might take equally as long to move on? Why would it take less time to break up than to get to know someone?
