sorry for bumping this thread gaf, just want to vent a little

i haven't really been thinking about any of this recently, been under quite a bit of pressure right now to get a lot of work done. that was until like ten minutes ago, when i saw a picture of her on snapchat from a friend of her's story, and feelings hit me hard. now i'm having a hard time not thinking about things, and as per my usual emotional response i've found some alcohol and I'm sat here drinking on my own again.

and up until now i was thinking getting over had been going well. ha! now i'm thinking a bunch of crap like 'well maybe if i've changed enough surely she'll want to be with me again' and the likes. ugh, i don't want to be in this place again. god damn why has this triggered me so much

Hah, this happened to me a couple of weeks ago, but on Facebook. We've been apart over half a year and I thought I was all over, but one picture of her having fun popped up while I'm here getting shitty results in my grad school experiments.

Don't listen to GAF.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

It's natural to still have lingering feelings of a relationship gone awry that may be activated from the most random of things. It's part of the process really.

I would advise you to avoid alcohol however. The most important thing is to be around things and people that make you happy. Perhaps call up an old friend impromptu or go treat yourself to something nice.

I believe in you!

Yup, it will take a while mate. Tough it out. Block all possible contact and things that might remind you of her.

If you do change yourself, do it for the next girl.

this is why we avoid social media with links to the ex until we're so far past them we take a second to remember their names. Point isn't to reexamine where you went wrong or if you were wrong at all. Just find someone else, like she no doubt has done. I mean, the college breakup is just part of life's story, it happens to a huge percentage of people.

she's "different" now dude lol, she's seen the world, and you're just holding her back. Anyway, live, love, laugh, and get around. don't pay her a second thought, save for one last toast. Here's to her life, may she enjoy it and be happy.

At least she doesn't send you snaps everyday of her flicking you off lol

shit man :/

i'm guessing the relationship ended in a bad way?

shit man :/

It started after we got back together but I broke up with her 2 days after. Don't feel bad, I honestly find the pictures hilarious. Sometimes she sends me snaps of my posts on here lol. Cracks me up
