Keep going with your ralationship with her, but keep your eyes open at the same time. Maybe she is with you because she needs something to fill the hole in her broken heart for the moment, but how can you be sure she is loving you because of who you are. Think about when you are about to drown, you would grab anything you can get with the hope it would help you not to sink in the water ... Don't soak yourself in the pain of what had happened, but try to understand why it happened, why and how she (and he) did that ... This will help you to realized better who they really are ...\nKeep the ralationship longer, and sooner or later you will find out if she truelly loves you, because of who you are, and is the right person for you, before you make your life's important decition.\nLook forward, be a man and good luck !

Open up to your closest friend and hang with him/her for a while with his/her group of friends. \n\nMeet new people in the process, and be a little more outgoing. With friends as the joy of your life, you won't feel lonely.\n\nAlso read motivational stories and tell yourself you don't have the worst of situations- people out there have it worse than you. Good things happen to people who make them happen. \n\nDon't waste your life away. \nPick yourself up, get yourself together. \n\nHave fun. (:

You cant tell your friends what to do. what you have to do is either just let them be who they are now, and hope they will eventually go back to normal. Until then, you keep doing your own thing and being your own person!! more props to you for being urself, that is a hard thing to do.  If they dont come around, find some other friends that are themselves, then you all can have fun! meeting new people is fun anyway! good luck!

You might be afriad of opening up to people becuase of hurt in your past. Friends really are the best thing life, treat them that way and you will be fine. Don't let your fear of opening up ruin that for you. Good luck.

Reach out and touch someone first and they'll do the rest toward friendships. If old acquaintances leave, make new friends because that's whats life is all about. Diligence, respect and modesty pays off.. Hold on to you for if you can be a friend to yourself first by realizing you're worthy of just being you, you will have begun the ladder of friendship one step at a time. I have full confidence in you. Remember this. Yesterday was a dare to struggle to hold on to the past [acquaintances who called themselves friends], and today is a dare to win[new friends including yourself first, and then others]. I think your life is like a precious jewel that can never be replaced.  Good luck ,much warmth and joy, and much wisdom.

Cry, talk about it, cry some more. Get it totally out of your system. Throw all of those memories away. Then go and live your life like you've never lived it before. Meet new people, go places, do things, and never ever look back.

You need to resolve this conflict, don't hang on to the unfortunate events of past. Your experience in life makes you shy away from people.Look ahead and concentrate on the positive aspects of your life. You have had love and marriage and this is what will eventually help you heal. You need to develop some confidence and learn to love yourself. Don't distrust everyone, not all people are bad. Make friends and make efforts to socialize with people in a friendly manner. You will be surprised how people begin to like you. That will help you raise your self-esteem.\nLife is short, live it in the best possible manner, all you have to do is to make efforts towards a positive living.\nGod bless.

This is a normal part of growing up.  It happens to all of us.  I remember crying my eyes out with a friend because we hadn't spent that much time together, and now we're graduating and won't see each other in a while!  I have seen her twice since then; 14 years ago.\n\nYou'll miss your friends at first, then you move on.  If you go to college, you'll make lots of new friends, and they'll have a lot more in common with you.  If you work, you'll meet friends at jobs.\n\nKeep in mind that if you were very best friends, you will remain very best friends.  My friend since I was 10 and I talk every now and then, but we live in different cities and are in different points in our lives.  She's a single mom now going back to school, and I'm married with 3 kids and already graduated from college.  But we still talk, and I'd still consider her my friend!\n\nRelax and enjoy this moment in your life.  There are many big events to follow soon!  Your life will start changing dramatically as you grow up!  And you are ALWAYS growing up!\n\n(Your e mail address isn't confirmed so I can't write you back, so I'm editing this...)\n\nI'm sorry.  This is a normal part of growing up.  Changing friends, changing lives.  You met these friends, you will meet more!  Being sad is alright.  Let them know that you will miss them, and that you wish them luck.  Maybe in a few years after things cool down you'll see them again!  There is the internet, after all.  When I graduated, there was no internet or cell phones.  Getting in touch with people was much more difficult.  I've recently gotten in touch with some old friends; and it's nice because it's been so long we have so many stories to share!  I had lunch with a girl I haven't seen in 7 years a couple weeks ago, and I'm having dinner with a friend I haven't seen in 17 years Friday!  I'm really excited, and I'm bringing all kinds of pictures!  We met when we were 12, and now I have a daughter about that age!  Funny!\n\nLife is fun.  You'll enjoy it.  I'm glad to see that you are so aware of your feelings and not afraid to talk about them.  That's the first step in being an adult!  So many adults have trouble because they can't understand their feelings, and if they do, they won't talk about them!  You'll do well in your life!

Hmmm...the best way to get over your ex???? Get a group of friends together and go out and have a good time! Go dancing, go to a movie, even invite them over to hang out. Do anything you can to keep your mind off the ex. Then, throw out anything the ex ever gave you. Get rid of it all, burn it if you want. Have a "cleansing". Take a nice long shower, indulge in some bubble bath even, do something nice for yourself. Go spend some money if you've got it, and then, when you are ready, go shopping for another person to be with!:) GOOD LUCK!
