My most recent ex who was also my most serious relationship have been broken up for about 10 months now. It was really tough in the beginning. I spent about six months just putting myself and my life back together without him.
I'm not completely over him, but I know that I'll never go back. [He (who is 22) left me to be with a 16 yr old girl and now after that stupidity passed, he realizes what a mistake he made and wants me back.]
The biggest mistake I made was making my entire life around him. I never did anything or spent time with anyone without running it by him first. I thought that if I gave him everything I had to give he would always love me.
Just, be strong. You have your sisters and your family and your GC family here around you. It won't be easy, but it will get better.

AlwaysSAI said it well. I know with me, I dated but no one seriously until I met my ex. He was two years younger than me and we were together for over a year, and we were soooo in loooovvveeee lol. We lived together last summer, and he went back to school and I had graduated, we broke up in October. It was a mutual breakup, just realizing that things couldn't be the same, long distance was too hard. long story short, my best friend started sleeping with him while he and i were still sleeping togehter even though we broke up. i found out a month later. i hate him. lol and i don't care for her either.
even through all of that, I still appreciate the time we spent together, b/c it made me a better person (though he isn't... i'm not bitter!
) I'm still picking up the pieces, but not really because of him, but because of me, I have to get my own life together. but i digress.
my point is, things will get better, one step at a time, one day at time. There is no set period of time to get over an ex, it's different for everyone. I recommend using your family, friends and GC
and getting involved in other activities. that's one thing that I should have done and plan on doing, is taking classes or doing something that I love... instead of sitting home, moping and eating...
