Getting over a break up.
Yeah, it's me again. So I broke up with my boyfriend, I posted it two weeks ago in this forum. I called him last week and met with him. He says he still loves me, but just needs to straighten up his life. I told him I don't think it would ever work out because I don't feel appreciated enough. He is in a fork in the road in his life, so to speak. He is trying to be more responsible, he's taking 3 summer courses, getting back into shape, has a new job, and all those nice things that we want in our men. He says that he doesn't know how long it will take for him to straighten himself out, and he doesn't know what he wants romantically. He might even want to see other people.
He doesn't want us to talk for a couple more weeks. He told me to go out and date other guys while we're broken up. Meanwhile, I'm a total wreck. I can't seem to get myself out of this slump. It's been two weeks since I broke up with him, but I still cry myself to sleep every night.
Okay, my question is this: Should I wait and see what he decides? I don't think I should, because I don't think it could go back to the way it was between us.
How can I get over him? It seems so impossible, and every day I have to stop myself from contacting him. What should I do?
We can be heroes just for one day.
