I still have feelings for my ex-boyfriend. what do I do?

6 months.piffff. that's nothing, try 6 years like I have.

6 months is nothing. flirt with other guys. you are still young!

You shouldn't be in a rush to have a boyfriend. Sometimes a break can be good for you. And you're still young. Just wait, you'll meet plenty of guys who you'll want to date.

Don't worry about not having a new boyfriend because you are obviously not ready to give yourself 100% to someone else when you still feel for your ex. It wouldn't be fair to your new boyfriend. I know your pain, feeling hopeless, like there's no one else. No one to save you, no one to care. And it is very hard to function when you are wrapped up in all that despair. I know exactly where you are coming from. What you have to realize is that you are young. There are guys out there. He is not going to be your only ex, or boyfriend in this lifetime. It's been six months, he's probably moved on. Close that chapter, and begin to focus on you. You don't NEED a boyfriend. As a young lady you should be talking to different people, meeting knew people. Having a boyfriend should not validate your happiness. Learn from that relationship, and when you are ready, if you meet a new guy and want to take a step further, don't let your insecurities make you jolt backwards. Understand that he and you were not meant to be and, 'look', you are still living. You can always save a place for him in your heart, but don't let this hurt captivate you, it is not worth it. I hope I wasn't too tough on you. I am just sharing from experience.

if you still have feelings for your ex, you shouldn't be looking for a new boyfriend. it's not fair to bring emotions like that into a new relationship.

focus on making yourself a better person. spend time with your friends and family. get a part-time job like babysitting.
