Just a quick question.
After a breakup, what is the best thing to do to get the other person off your mind. It's killing me! I've tried several sports, but find I can't put any effort, too depressed.
What are some other ideas?

Or if that doesn't work then drugs always helps!!!

In all seriousness, I've been through that. Best thing to do is go out, ahng out with your friends and meet new girls.
I did that and within 2 weeks of my breakup I was seeing someone else and was moving on.
You don't just forget about the old one when you meet a new one, that takes time, but it certainly keeps ya distracted and someone new is always exciting ;)

Get a blog and blog all your feelings out. I found that helped me.

First, you should consider why your ex-girlfriend dumped your sorry ass. Next, consider the possibility of suicide because you're a worthless human being without any redeeming qualities that a normal person would find appealing. After that, you can torment yourself relentlessly about the sober fact that you'll never achieve the same level of happiness you had when you were with your ex-girlfriend. Lastly, face the truth that you've already peaked at this point in your life and to wallow in your own self-pity is counterproductive in a life that is beyond meaningless.

No matter what you do it is still gonna hurt, your still going to lay in bed at night alone & your thoughts will creep on you.
Sorry that you have to go through this.
But as silly as some of these posts sound, you need to get out as much as possible.
It won't solve the problem, or take away the hurt, but it will give you some time to smile, some time to think of other things. a little distraction is always good for the soul. :)
Don't look for a rebound girl, look for a girl who wants to just be friends, or a girl who does not want a serious relationship if you need a female for any reason in your life right now.
Just whatever you do, don't stay inside, & bottle up all your feelings. It hurts alot more when you have nothing to do but stare at the walls & think of her.
Just a girls point of view, & guys know how emotionally screwed up we can be some times. :)
so go out with the boys, get some fresh air & let the hurt slowly ease away.

What you are going through is some major withdrawl syndrome...more powerful than CRACK. Just do the cold turkey, talk alot with friends and family...will take a long time...and it is brutal...some take years but the best easy way out is to find someone else.

but in all seriousness... hang out with friends to get your ex out of your mind or pick up a new hobby... it worked for me at least... i mean do the things u enjoyed b4 u dated your ex

QFT.
I would say the exact same thing. Write down your thoughts somewhere, or if you've got a very good friend, invite him over for a beer or a dozen and vent.
Remember that its okay to think about your ex when the cut is fresh. Now is a time to be completely selfish as well. Go have good meals out. Take the day off from work, or skip class one day. Lose your worries in having fun.
I would also advise against getting a rebound girl, but I wouldn't swear off of women during this time. I met my fiancee about a month after breaking up with my ex of a year.
You're going to be unhappy...do what it takes to be happy again.

Well, I mean, cmon. You're on a board frequented by admitted cheapskates, geeks, and people with nothing better to do. None of those groups lend themselves to people who know how to deal with people of the prettier sex. Its like everybody on here is like rainman when a girl enters the room. The best they can think to do is start humping the leg of the closest object available of the time - or their hand.

hit the weights, if it doesn't "work out" at a normal gym[typically male occupied] go to a gym that has more girls. you're not trying to pick up girls, but the objective here is to be motivated and focus on something else rather than your ex.

To OP -- time heals all wounds. Just think...years down in life you're going to look back at all this and laugh. Until then -- you can be happy, or be sad. Your choice.
