how do you get over a long term relationship?

[The Pink Panther]

You just have to ride it out mate.

When me and my ex split it was a proper head fuck but it does get better with time, i know thats a cliche but it's true. You'll have good days and shit days but eventually you'll start to feel like your old self again.

Time is a great healer and all that!

Going out and getting hammered or banging some slag wont actually help you at all to be honest.

You're gonna get loads of macho bullshit advice on here mate but I know what it's like and what you're going through so just keep your head up and take it one day at a time.

The next few weeks will be a twat for you and you'll do lots of dumb shit and lot's of cool shit just try to keep your head and if you need to talk to anyone anoymous but cool pm me and sound off or something mate.

That's what I would have said.
Your stomach will feel like shit for a few days but as TMQ says "time's a great healer"

Get pissed and nail sluts and fat birds,
You will have a whale (no pun intended) of a time and should get your head summat like,
Just dont do it for long periods or you may turn into a wrongun like me and enjoy pulling rotters.

Good God.

What do they have to say about you?

Thanks pal. I can honestly say this is the worst i have felt in a long time. Would not be to bad if it was mutual but thems the breaks.

Seriously though, thanks for the advice.

Same thing happened to me i felt like shit for a few weeks then got shagging, a bit of different pussy after the same thing for eight is quality. you soon get over it.

Take up a new sport or hobby. Get into bike (bicycle) riding if you aren't already. It can be very therapuetic.

Its time, time and more time im afraid and its not what you want hear rite now you either want her back or the shit feeling to go and its crap

It’s took me nearly a year to sort my head out and still I have to hear what my ex is up to week in week out but time is the great healer

Get a Cat

 

[Blue Streak]

Can only go with the time advice.

I've never been with someone for what was it eight years? but I've had relationship splits and as hard as it is time as a healer is the only answer.

I went through a nasty split earlier this year and the circumstances that lead up to its build up left me feeling very bitter, twisted and confused - things happened that would make a normal man laugh but did my head in!

Shocking thing was in the past City was my way out - this time she is a City fan as well!

Chin up pal and hope your ok!

 

[robspankthemonkey]

Worst feeling ever, takes along time and the first year is shit.

What i have decided to do is, buy a cat, start cycling, shag her best friend and a fat bird(same thing), give it time and i am going away this weekend.

seriously though, you are all gents(except macenzie, obviously)
