Getting over your ex will take time. Its important to know that your ex is your ex for a reason and always keep that reason in mind. Know that you have given it your best shot and because of that reason you had to leave and move forward.

From experience, the best way of getting over an ex is surrounding yourself with people and things you love.

That's a tough one. Sometimes it can take longer than that to get over someone. Perhaps one way to forget about the past is to maybe focus on the future, building something new, doing something new.

Gosh. It took me longer than that to get over mine. There is no set time of how long it should take to get over someone. Anyone who is telling you otherwise is lying to you. Its not good to dwell over the situation but it is good to take the time that you need emotionally. I promise that things will get better and you will get over your EX I did and even found someone who is 100% better. so can you

First of all, cut any communication or contact you have with her. Have absolutely no contact with her. After that, start going out meaning, go out with friends, talk to new people, distract yourself in many fun ways. You can and will get over your ex because you deserve better than before and you will get it in time. Don't worry, nothing stays bad forever, things always change for the best

Even after the no contact rule if you feel like this then you could try and fill your day one day at a time with meaningful productive things. Which could be anything ranging from your passions to something that involves you going out of the house.That doesn't mean that the thoughts will go away suddenly but you will be cushioned better to meet your real self. And learn to love yourself more daily and it will help.

Try to think about the negative things in the relationship. You broke up for a reason, remember that. Also, cutting off all contact with them might help
