Okay this is complicated. I just started dating a guy about a month ago.and I broke up with my 2yr long distance boyfriend about 8 months ago [omg I can't believe its almost been a year =( owwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! iasbdas] so anyway.I thought I was over my ex.and he is certainly over me.but I guess I'm just not. I cried so hard today that I literally threw up. I don't know what to do. he's going away to college.but he will still be the same distance from me that he always is.and my new boyfriend is going away to college too. my new boyfriend wants to stay with me while he is in college.my old boyfriend used to say that but he's changed so much and its so confusing =[ all he does is ignore me.anyway! I know I have to get over this guy.and I really like this guy I'm in a relationship with now.the problem is.I will spontaneously start crying at least a few times a day over my ex.and my new boyfriend is like.WHATS WRONG?! what should I tell him? I want to keep him. he makes me feel so much better! its just.i feel so bad about being in such a sad mood all the time

Wow you know what don't take this the wrong way but I am going through a very similar situation,except I'm a guy and my ex is a female:), but it feels good to knw I'm not the only one in this world that is going through this.I knw exactly wa you mean when in a second you get sad and it is just an umbearable feeling, but I wouldn't keep how you feel from your man, maybe talking to him about will help you.Like you said your ex is over you so you HAVE to get over him. I know it is hard, I still can't get over that my ex is with someone else, it's a feeling of frustration hate anger sadness all balled up:(.Keep your head up you got it, just gotta be strong.Let me knw wa happens pwease.chelerwsms@yahoo.com

one thing you can never fight is change.people go through a lot in college and it changes him just like ur ex. I hate to say it but ur new boyfriend might be off to the same path with your ex.everything changes and we can't fight it. if you like ur new boyfriend now then let go.try letting go.try saying that ur too good for ur ex and deserve someone better.its not ur lost and you know that.

Grief is a natural process and it needs to be completed, to reach the healing on the other side. Think of it like this: When you grieve, your tears irrigate the wounds of your heart, whether pain from lost expectations, or from inflicted pain. When this is happening, Jesus is cleaning the wound, removing the debris, and suturing it closed. We have to be willing to let Him take us as deep as we need to go, for as long as we need to be there, so He can remove the infection that has been growing since we were first wounded, even if it has nothing to do with the current circumstances.
Ask God to show you what needs to be grieved, to take you as deep as you need to go for as long as you need to be there, and He will. As you come out the other side, He will do something to bring lighten your heart and let you feel levity. If you stop short, it is harder to go back and grieve it all. If you listen to the enemy of your soul, who will tell you you don't need to grieve, or that it is too deep to go through, you will never gain the healing and freedom that are waiting for you on the other side. Take some time and let God work with you on this.

I wouldn't tell the new boyfriend that you're crying over someone else. That would end it for me. However, it's affecting your relationship and he's probably left wondering what's up with you and you won't tell him (and you shouldn't).

It's tough when a relationship ends because of distance. You're always left wondering about the possibilities if it had not happened. Your problem now is that you're letting past possibilities interfere with present realities. Your ex is saying that he's changed so much. That's a nice way of saying that you guys are not getting back together.

I think he has finally given you a reason why you guys will not get together. Kind of like a rejection because it's no longer distance that's keeping you apart. Maybe that's what you're crying about. Time to get over it and dust yourself off.

Sounds like you need more time to get over the ex. Maybe you were not ready to date someone new just yet. I think you should possibly break off the relationship with the new guy. (It sounds like a rebound relationship) Take some time to figure out who you are and what you want. If you want to date then do that but don't get serious with anyone.
