I just want to let you know, country songs don't help!!! Really though, I went through this with the same guy for 4 years on and off...I guess I'm just a sucker or something. Since November I decided he wasn't the guy for me and have "moved on" as much as ...well, as much as my heart will let me. I mentioned that I am afraid to start dating again to my friend and she gave me some GREAT advice. First, she asked me if I was dead. When I replied no, she said that no matter how bad I felt this one guy (or any guy) breaking my heart did not stop me from living!!! Humans bounce back, maybe not today, but we do with time. My counselor gave me some good advice too...when I think about this guy and start spiraling into the "I miss him" mode...remember all the times he made me feel horrible by his actions or words. He obviously was not the guy for me or he wouldn't feel so low about himself that he had to criticize me. Don't let the real guy go by because the wrong guy chose to miss out!!!
