When yooh used to be in love
but that person changed
and the love for them is completely gone
but the person yooh thought yooh knew keep appearing in yur dreams.
yeah but i said find someone new, i didnt say forget =/ ...finding someone new will work depending on who it is and how strong of a bond she'll have with that person...or maybe thats just how it was for me, but i was just telling her from my experience. i found someone new and he completely changed everything for me and took my mind off of my ex...now two years later i dont want anyone else, and neither does he. life in that department is great...so i was just answering her question from my own experience.
i disagree with the DeadPoet (love the screen name, by the way). i say don't TRY to forget. That's like saying, "don't think about an elephant." Hold on to the good memories, never forget them, but don't confine them. Let Your memories be memories and know that they are just memories. And don't try to replace that one. You can't, and distracting Yourself with a new one won't fix anything, You'll just be going into it without all of Your feelings available for them. You would do better to focus on You. You have the potential to learn a lot about Yourself from this experience. Just Love Yourself for now. You'll know when Your ready for something new.
