My friend wrote a great article about this after his experiences having broken up with his ex.

Bit of shameless self-promotion there but it's worth a look!

pick up a sport.. keeps your mind and body occupied
I moved to LA after my last rough breakup and picked up surfing
It definately saved my sanity

Ah this thread.
Well, things are going better now. Haven't spoken to her at all that much these past few months. The last time we did speak was kinda bad. I told her I still loved her and all that crap. We ended up talking about the possibility of there being an 'us' ever again in the future. We agreed that nothing would be definite and to just see what happens when she comes over.
But I've come to some realizations lately since then. I know that I could never be -truly- happy with her. Not unless she changed the type of person she is, but I couldn't see that happening. Heck, I wasn't even that happy when I WAS with her. I just wish I could take off these rose-tinted glasses. I don't want to be with her, but I still yearn for her. It's fucks you up, as I'm sure some of you will know.
She's still messing my mind up. Received a Christmas e-mail that she had sent to 'the people that mean a lot to me'. On New Years Eve I thought I'd be courteous and send her an email saying Happy New Year (only because she sent me a message hoping I have a good time that night). Anyways, I get an email back saying 'I remember this time last year...'
This time last year was when we first started getting into each other. She phoned me when new years struck and I phoned her when it was new years over there. Maybe I'm reading too much into that, I don't know. I just thought it was an odd thing to say. Either way I deleted it. It's my new years resolution to move on from this as best I can.

should probably limit or cut off your communication with her.. at least for a few months...
The only way to really get over it is to NOT think about it... that and spend time thinking about OTHER girls and going after them. The latter will help desensitive you even more towards her.
