Hi all, I am 28 year old guy, that just got out of a 6 year relationship. Her reason for leaving was, she said the spark was gone. I asked her to try and work through it and maybe we could get some help to try and get it back but she didn't want to try. She says she still loved me but could be with me anymore, this crushed me. And she did it right before christmas to make it even worse. I have read everything saying that I should not call her or anything to get over her. But what do you do when you don't want to get over her? I am finding that I am trying to hook up with other girls right away to take my mind off the pain, is this ok if it helps me through the pain or will it only make it worse? I don't want to hurt anyone in order to make myself feel better. I am very confused and sad about the life we were going to have gone just like that. Is it ok to have hope that we might get back together or is that just draggin on the pain? When do you know the hope is gone, and you are over that person? Also how long do you feel this hurt?
Thanks for all your help getting my feelings out really help
James
