| How do you know when your Over your ex?............... Posted: 1/6/2007 5:00:54 PM | 1. You know you are over your ex when you no longer have to post questions on a forum asking .... how do you know when you are over your ex.
2. You know you are over your ex when you havn't heard this for about a year. " Hey dude, your'e not over your ex yet" | |

| How do you know when your Over your ex?............... Posted: 1/6/2007 9:49:41 PM | | Shanie, message 8 - that's brilliant and absolutely true. Why must one be indifferent to the person he or she loved so well for so long? It's over so it's over, it take two to Tango, but it isn't necessary to negate the good years. | |

| How do you know when your Over your ex?............... Posted: 1/6/2007 10:11:22 PM | You know it's over when he steps in front of your car in a parking lot and you hit the brakes. Well, that's kind of drastic. Just get on with your life and forget about it, the sooner the better.  | |

| How do you know when your Over your ex?............... Posted: 1/7/2007 1:34:28 AM | its taken me a long time, but you know when you are over your ex, when you couldnt even be bothered to send a happy new year message, re-attach different memories to those old songs, so that the next time you hear them, you think of someone/something else. youve thrown the old coffee macine in the bin, you can play your favourite music when you like, watch horror movies without being concerned about being frowned upon or hissed at like a cat. it feels wonderful not to be critisised for growing your hair back, having black boxer shorts, and generally break wind at your own discretion. you also know you are over your ex, when you see your old car being crushed in front of you, and all you can think of is singing endorpinemachine by prince. there ya go.  | |

| It's Over When Posted: 1/7/2007 2:06:40 AM | Hi, one question no one is answering here is what happens when a child is involved. I agree with you totally about being friends with your ex thats how I cope sometimes I dont and I do cry but necessarily for her but for the loss of my child in my life and for me to be there for him on a daily basis and to care for him....he is 5 this year. I think this brings about a much more powerful type of emotion that sometimes simply overwhelms you if you think too much about it.
I have tried to go out with someone recently but only for it to come to nothing 6 months later. My best friend who is female has told me to find myself now and to take time to just not have a relationship with anyone. Take the time to find who you are...and if later you find someone sexy then ok maybe now is the time to move on. 2 FEMALE FRIENDS have told me this...are they right I wonder now?

| How do you know when your Over your ex?............... Posted: 1/7/2007 2:06:50 AM | Hey there Mate, I was told that it would take me about one month for every year I was married to get over her. I was married 15 years, so I hoped that wasnt true. They were about right unfortunately. But even now after 3 years there's just the odd thing that still bites. I still cant stand the sight or thought of my best mate, who she took off with. It does take time mate especially if you thought she was the one and had been together for a while. It does get better tho, believe me. | |

| How do you know when your Over your ex?............... Posted: 1/7/2007 2:09:48 AM | No: When you can't stop thinking of them, try to keep reworking the past so it will turn out right this time, if you could just figure out what went wrong...
Maybe: Still crosses your mind as a "gee, too bad that didn't work out" or a "man, I hope he gets eaten by a shark, even if he never goes near the water."
Yes: Never think of him at all, unless forced to, say like, you have shared children, or he shows up on America's Most Wanted (although not by YOU!) Only feeling about him having sex with another person is vauge feeling of pity for the other woman/man/species. Even though he hasn't changed much, you walk right past him without even registering his existence.
I don't think there is a standard time frame. Some people give you a lot to miss, or at least be angry about. This last one was so barely involved, even if he was there every day for over a decade, I don't think it's going to take that long. | |

| How do you know when your Over your ex?............... Posted: 1/7/2007 3:04:55 AM | ^^^^^^^^^^ I agree. I know its easier said than done, but the more you play the tape in your mind of the rotten things she has done to you, the longer will be your recovery.
When you find yourself doing that, stop the tape and deliberately think of something pleasant for you. It CAN be done !
I know this sounds trite, but it does work. Alll the best to you.....

| How do you know when your Over your ex?............... Posted: 1/7/2007 6:14:04 AM | original leo....DONT TAKE HER BACK you know the best thing u can do is to let her see that u have moved on, its even harder cause u must have contact because of the kids, but its time you thought of yourself. then again l signed up here to keep busy because l cant get out there and move on,everything l do reminds me of him, things that made me happy now make me cry, l thought l was the saddest person on the earth "maybe lm not" l miss so much and hate being such a sad sack but l cant just get out there and move on. l know as we all do we just need to get out and mix, its like riding a bike, fall off get back on, a different bike of course | |

| It's Over When Posted: 2/9/2007 4:21:01 PM | Hi
I've just read your post and I think it's the best advice I have had in the two months since I split with my fiance. Thank you. I have run the gauntlet of emotions since 1 December - it started with rage and hate, then utter sadness and depression. I still love him and I guess a big part of me always will. We spent six wonderful years together and I'm not going to forget about that, despite what people tell me. I know that without experiencing those six years I would not be the person I am today. He was good for me and I was good for him. I won't and cannot stay friends with him, the circumstances of our split and what he did mean that friendship is not an option but I don't want to go through life feeling hatred, bitterness or any sadness. I am a better person for that and one day I really hope that I can take the moral of your story and apply it my life. Great advice. Thank you so much. | |

| It's Over When Posted: 2/10/2007 4:59:11 PM | | Kudos to White Dahlia for an INCREDIBLE list, I've never seen one so comprehensive or accurate---right on! | |

| It's Over When Posted: 2/10/2007 6:28:30 PM | I agree, whitedahlias list was AWESOME! I have just now realized (2 years later) that I am completely over my ex. Everyone every once in awhile gets that feeling that they want to try again. It's comfortable and familiar. But you need to have courage and step out of your comfort zone and know that it is OK just to date. You don't have to find the love of your life in the next 6 months. And you WILL get yoour heart broken again. But think of the beauty when you do find that special someone. And that is the best revenge. Living life to its fullest as if there will be no tomorrow. | |

| It's Over When Posted: 2/10/2007 7:35:15 PM | An ex-girlfriend is a lot like an OK movie. I liked it at the time but I don't want to see it again.
Especially if the movie was a ****. | |
