Recently I got dumped by my boyfriend. We’d been going out for about a month and I genuinely think I was falling in love with him. He said he thinks we’d be better off as friends and he still wants to stay close friends. I don’t know what to do, I can’t bear seeing him as it just reminds me of our past relationship. I cried when I found out and then just kind of progressed to angry numbness. I don’t know what to do or how to try and move on, help?
Got something to add to this convo? Then go for it, girl. Tell us what you think in the boards: how do you move on after a breakup?

I just posted something like this in the “being single” forum – except I’m more interested in getting him back. We dated for over a year, I really love and miss him.
i think they are right i just went through the same situation about two weeks ago…i know it sucks but i shook hands w/ him and said ya we should be just friends. yes, it sucks to be in the friend zone but once he realizes your fine w/ being single it will get to him and he will either want you back or he might be fine w/ it either way its for the best…
First things first – you should definitely stop seeing this guy, hanging out with him or having any kind of contact with him. Right now, you are confused, sad, angry, and everything else that you could be – all at once, so seeing him will only make things worse. You’ll keep having flashbacks of all crazy, funny, romantic, beautiful things you two had – and right now you don’t need it.
Give yourself time, try to focus yourself on other things- like being with your friends, studying or anything important to you.
Moving on will take some time and sometimes you will feel like most desperate girl in the world, and sometimes you will find yourself OK. But, as time passes by you will feel happy without him and ready for new relationship (or maybe not – maybe you will find yourself perfectly happy being single, that’s great, too)
Just don’t forget that you are really easy to upset right now and if you start thinking about yourself negatively – stop. Never forget how awesome you are.
When you know you’re over him – you can start hanging out with him again if you want it. If he’s really insisting on your friendship have open conversation with him, tell him how you really feel and what you think.
As Caitlyn-Babii has already said . He’s just another Mr Wrong closer to Mr Right
This is food for the soul and truly the best advice I’ve ever seen to get over an ex. I feel hopeful that someday I wont be tortured with the beautful memories of my first love. Thank you.
Well, I really feel for you gurl,I went through the same kinda thing last year, and I know how hard it can be to be “just friends” with the guy you love. My advice would be to stay mates with him, obviously (it’s better than nothing!) but try to spend some time away from him with your other friends, just to try and get a little distance, and then maybe when you feel you’re ready, start to think about other guys you might like to go out with. If it wasn’t meant to be, it wasn’t meant to be – you’ll find your true love one day, and this is just one Mr Wrong closer to Mr Right.
Good luck gurl<3
you make no sense! mr wrong and mr right whaaat! explain it to me please
