Hugs Karosko, breaks ups suck in the worst way. I want to say lots of things to make you feel better but I know they won't help. Just know we are here for you and we love you.

I just spent roo in the company of my ex gf a year and a half after she dumped me. Regardless to say I spent most of my time avoiding being around her and drinking TN whiskey and having corn in my system helped ease the awkwardness.
Time is the only way these things heal as after all this time spent away from her has made me feel different towards her and I got over it. Change yourself for the better, exercise is the best if you have the time.
Im with Abra, there's nothing that can really be said that makes it hurt less. Cry as much as you want. Drink too. Go running and pretend her face is the pavement. Whatever works.
Karosko - You'll always be AAF to us. Inforoosters are your posse. <3 hugs <3

You're right, these things just take time. In time, you'll wake up one morning not missing her as much. Eventually, you'll find you don't really miss her at all. Don't keep your head down; when someone really great comes along, you want to be able to see her.

Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

I like the 'pretend her face is the pavement' advice!! When I was heartbroken last, I lifted weights like I was bashing his face with them. Not that I'm bitter or anything. ;D

Ok, I need some advice. My gf broke up with me a couple of weeks ago. We havent talked on the phone since. I texted her a couple of times last week. Once, to arrange swapping of stuff and once to wish her luck at a big interview she had. She responded, thanked me and told me she'd let me know how it went. Since then I havent heard anything.
Should I try and get her talking again or should I just send her stuff to her?
Karosko, I think a certain Pool Party next month is just what you need. Nothing like a party w/a bunch of crazy, drunken Inforoosters to help put a smile back on your face. Hope you can make it!
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

Chico, I am sorry! It seems as though bad relationships are ending all over for all of us. I feel as though you opened the line of communication. If she wanted to take it... she would...

Sh*t, Rosko, I'm sorry man. Not sure if you remember but I went through sort of the same thing right before last year's Roo. I know it doesn't feel that way now, but at least you had those couple of stress-free days before it happened. A lot of times, break-ups are the end to long, drawn-out, anxiety-driven episodes that are unhealthy for everyone involved.
And I'm not going to act like I know how long it'll take you to get over it, or if you ever will to be honest. I still miss my ex g/f and we broke up last April. I've run into her once, and until that happened I wasn't sure I was going to ever get back to "normal," or whatever. But I know the feeling, you've basically just lost the person who knows you better than anyone. They may not have known you as long as other people, but they know more of you than anyone else does. It's a terrible feeling losing that person, but you'll find out you have some great friends, I'm sure. People who are going to refuse to let you dwell and be depressed. My advice: listen to those people. Let them take you out, or whatever they suggest (although you can draw the line at seedy strip clubs or stuff like that), and find things that you can enjoy without the memory of your ex.
Keep your head up, dude, it sucks now but it won't stay like that. I'm proof of that.
My girlfriend of 3 years that I lived with just broke up with me two days ago, as soon as I got home from Bonnaroo. I was totally blindsided and devastated (still am, actually). Neither of us cheated on the other or anything like that and we always generally treated each other well, I guess she just felt that there were things that weren't clicking that should be after three years. I've been in a f*cking tailspin since. I've subsisted on nothing but peanut butter sandwiches and lots and lots of PBR the last couple days and I've just sat on my couch a lot crying. This is the f*cking worst.
Not to mention, it puts my living situation in a state of flux. I think we'll be able to figure it out together, but it sucks not knowing where I'm gonna be living in the near future or what I should do.
And yes, I do realize what a whiny pansy I sound like in this post, but I don't care. It happened just two days ago and I'm not even close to over it.
I can feel your pain. It hurts coming from such a high and being dropped down to reality with a punch to the stomach.
Something that has helped me in the past was writing in a journal about what I was feeling. Also, try reconnecting with good friends of your past or family members. Open up to them, let them know how you're feeling. You will be amazed by the amount of support that flows in. A new support system will help you get through this temporary period of feeling down. Best wishes, man!
Chico, what?!?! Why am I just now hearing about this? I will be happy to open a can of whoop a$$ on this girl because she obviously deserves it for dumping you.
But I know the feeling, you've basically just lost the person who knows you better than anyone. They may not have known you as long as other people, but they know more of you than anyone else does. It's a terrible feeling losing that person
Yeah, this nails it right here. She's the person I would talk to when I'm feeling like this and now I can't. To make matters worse, one of my very best (like top 3 best) friends also happens to be her best friend (she knew him before I did), and she is actually staying at his place for a few days until we can get shit sorted out, so I haven't been able to talk with him, either. And my best best friend is out of town on business.
But yeah...I think/hope I'm starting to get to a place where I can feel better. Thanks for the advice, flanz (and everyone else obviously). Disappointed I didn't get to meet you at Bonnaroo.

Whatever you do, Kyle is don't contact her for whatever reason unless you need something from her. The less you speak to her the sooner you'll feel better. Truth.

The girl I've spent the last two or three months getting over just texted me saying she missed me and wanted to hang out soon.

I hate that. Been dealing with someone who has been doing that to me for over a year now and I've just recently decided to just stop it all together. Annoying as fuck!
So I've got this idea for a dating website - one where you can search/match potential partners based on common music, film, arts interests. And not just a simple b.s. "oh you're both into MUSIC" tag, but like "oh, you both like Grizzly Bear and Yeasayer" type thing, or "you both enjoy A Song Of Ice And Fire." Anyone feel like helping me get this off the ground?
That is not a bad idea really, nothing worse than going on a date with a girl that "likes music" only to find out she meant Nicklelback, Taylor Swift, and the Black Eyed Peas. In fact that is worse than someone who does not like music, because the first girl will eventually end up trying to make you listen to the crap she likes.
