What are some tips on getting over a guy?

You know, I bought a book called "How to heal a broken heart in 30 days"...I had looked up the reviews and it received 4 out of 5 stars. I've read some of it...it does help somewhat. Also, just keeping yourself busy. Mine broke up with me 2 weeks ago but we work together so its like BLAH and I want him to get back with me so I try to act a certain way..which is NOT good because there's a chance he may just move on and that'll devastate me even more. So...just think of it as it being completely over with..dont think that there's hope (even if there is, thinking this way may end up badly), buy the book..DONT blame yourself, and also what I did was make a list of all the things you disliked about him and make a list of what you want in your NEXT relationship. Look at it as often as necessary :). You WILL get over him..and I WILL get over mine! :)

Well, are you free this weekend? lol. Don't take that seriously, unless you want to which would be great but... given the realistic chance that you won't, you should probably find ways to fill the time gap in your life. If there was a time that you use to do something with him, find something else to do at that time. And I don't mean crying. Go, play, have fun. ;)

I think it is the same points a girl would tell. Still read on.

I am in this state since two years but improved a lot. I have started smiling these days.
-i made new friends.
-didnt talk or made any eye contact with her
-even stopped going to work.(believe me it was too painful so had to stop work)
-indulged in anything which made me happy, irrespective of the money I had to spend.
-i like riding bikes, so went to so many places just to see them, new environment changes mood
-changed my email account so that I don't see any of those old people mailing me and making me remember her.
-i too had a small spiral writing pad and used to write all stupid stuff I had to say to her
-the best point is...watch only comedy movies and stuff and no romantic thing please.

ALL THE BEST! Iam sure it will be healed...keep up the effort.

A broken heart is one of the hardest things to fix. It's going to be hard and take a lot of time. You're friends and family are there for you. My mother was the best person for me to talk to. Try talking to yours. Also, find some fun activities to do to take your mind of him. Try new things. If you find something new to do it wouldn't remind you of him. I spent a lot of time at the beach when my boyfriend broke up with me. But then again, I live near the beach...

If none of those seem to work for you, try this. This is what I did, and it did wonders!

I bought a spiral notebook and wrote down all the feelings I had bundled up inside. I know this sounds emo-ish, but it helped me so much! I eventually started writing down all the memories I had with him. The more I wrote, the madder I got. The madder I got, the better I felt. Eventually, I was so mad at him, I couldn't stand to be near him or let alone think about him! I moved on in about a month and started dating someone else. All my feelings for that jerk who broke my heart were gone!

Hope that helps and I hope you feel better. There is nothing worse than a broken heart..

The truth is there is no quick fix for a broken heart. You mainly have to distract yourself. Find something you like to do. Drawing, painting, music etc. I got some friends together to play games with. My break up was rough and I'm still not over the douche, but I know spending my time not thinking about him helped.

no contact. I kept contact with my ex and pestered him with text messages and cause of this 6 months later I still haven't got over him. I know its my own doing but believe me don't contact him otherwise it will take you forever. The worst mistake I have ever made was contacting him!

ignore him
distance
don't talk to him
act like he doesn't exist
get busier
hang out with friends
take care of yourself
do stuff you like to do ie. I like shopping so I would go shopping
find all the reasons you hate this guy and say he's not th eone for you
believe that he's not the one for you
when you're ready, date another guy

Im am going through the same thing. First off do not contact him what so ever. Also do not plat back in your mind what YOU did wrong and what YOU could of done right or different. For me I am working on my appearance or weight actually. I am working out and eating healthy.That helps alot. Also getting on here and making friends has really helped. Good Luck If you wanna or need to chat hit me up.

Keep yourself surrounded by friends!
Stay busy!

It will help you get your mind off of it.

It took me 6 months to completely get over my last boyfriend. The thing is, the first weeks are brutal. Then as the months go by, you go from thinking about him all the time, to once a day, to once every few days, to only when he's mentioned to you. So what I can suggest is this:

1. TIME. it hurts, but it works for sure
2. Get your mind off of him by doing something else - set new goals, have fun with your best friend. I got my mind off of him by concentrating on my dance crew and just using something else I love as therapy.
3. Meet someone new. Most of the time, meeting someone new or finding someone else of interest will temporarily make you feel better. It did for me, although I never truly liked the guys that came after my ex. It's okay because they still help you forget the previous guy, even though you don't end up in a relationship with the new ones.
4. Making yourself a better person - reflect and realise that you've grown and learned from this previous relationship. Now you've only become more experienced and you should cherish the happiness he did bring you while you two were together.

Hard.

You don't really need anybody. That's the big illusion in life that gets us all into major league trouble. We are looking for somebody else to fulfill the void. Once we realize that we are "perfect" alone we can only then start to be truly happy. NOBODY ELSE NO MATTER IF YOU HAVE THEM OR NOT CAN MAKE YOU FEEL CONTENT - it's an illusion, short lived - at best!

Every choice in life is your own choice. Every result was also your own making.
You don't get over anybody. What you do is get over YOU!

Don't waste your little time here thinking about somebody you aren't with.
You aren't with them for a reason - sometimes that reason won't show up for 20 years or more.
Move on - it won't last.
