10 points! Has this ever happened to you? How can I fix it?

omgitsrachel asked:


My first love ended about ten months ago. We were in a long-distance relationship. I am a freshman in college, and he in a junior. He was going to transfer to the college I am at in August, but he broke up with me in February after finding out he couldn’t afford it. He’s in Arizona, and I’m in Kansas. I was crushed and heartbroken, and I was struggling with depression during that time as well. He was my first love, and I feel like our relationship is a should-have, could-have, would-have type of situation.
It took my a very long time to get over him, and sometimes, it still kind of hurts.
Now I’m dating a new guy, Scott, who goes to my college. He’s so sweet, and I love him dearly.
The thing is, he tells me he loves me all the time, and the other night we were snuggling and flirting in my bed, and he said, “Rachel Jean Keith (my full name), I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”
Patrick, my first love, said that to me too, and we wound up breaking up.
Because of that, his face came to my mind immediately.
Has that ever happened to you?
How can I stop thinking about the breakup and worrying every time Scott says something like that?

  1. get your boyfriend back

    people will say things like that in the moment, we’ve all been there. doesnt mean it will actually happen. and most people always always have a place in their heart for their first love. so you wont ever fully get over the first guy but it will get easier in time.

    get your girlfriend back

    of course it has happened to me. I’m sure it has happened to everyone. I don’t think anyone will ever forget there first love because it was a special person in there life at one point in time. What I did when this happened to me was I just didn’t think about the past i just worried about the present and the future. I tried not to think about my first love.

    No, but I have a friend that is has happened to. She had a boyfriend who loved her, but couldn’t go to the same college. She found someone else and now they are married. She got over her last boyfriend by knowing that there will always be someone else out there for her so she should stop worrying. She knew that this person really loved her and that she loved him. A few years later, she met up with the guy and they talked about what happened. They became best friends. Make sure that you know that you love Scott, and that he won’t hurt you on purpose. It will get easier to think about Patrick, especially if you talk to Scott about him.

    you can have your relationship back

    Wow i totally understand your situation. I know its hard to believe since you have had your heart broken but i think you should give your new boyfriend a chance maybe he is the real deal don’t duel on the past just be careful about the decisions that you make this time around. The best thing for you to do in this situation is to STOP thinking about your EX. You have done a good job by getting yourself involve in a new relationship so that’s the first step. Don’t let your feeling get the best of you and you wound up breaking up with the new guy because you might regret it. Remember how it felt when ur EX broke up with you it didn’t feel so good now did it ? so put your new guys feelings into consideration and give him a chance. Use the mistakes that you have made in the past with your EX and learn something from it with the new guy so that you won’t be in the same predicament.

    Wish You The Best : )
