How to forget ex-boyfriend that i should forget?
My ex-boyfriend was really a tactless, insensitive person although he claimed to be sensitive...now that we have broke up i just can't bring myself to forget him...i keep reminiscing about the past about what we did and how much fun we had. I know it's all the past but everything was really so sweet...he was my first love. He also said a lot of unkind things to me but i can't make myself be angry at him. Whenever he sends me sms to wish me goodnight i would get very lonely and miss the times when we were together...i know perfectly that i really deserve better but i just can't forget him...i love him so much. Only after we broke up only did i realise how much i loved him....There were happy and sad times together with him but i just keep on thinking about how happy we were...and i worry that he'll not take care of himself...i really feel very sad and miss him a lot. How i wish i can give him a hug right now.

Ceasing contact with him for the time being would be a good start.
Not doing that is like a child who keeps on complaining of burns but doesn't stop touching the stove.
The rest will just take time. Just keep yourself busy and active and productive. Living in the past and reminiscing will only serve to make you miserable.

It is my opinion that you get three chances at true love. This is only your first love. Let him go, if it was meant to be you'll cross paths again. In the mean time, move on and start looking for number two. Heartbreak is part of growing up. It hurts in the begining, but anything worth while always does. It will only make you a better lover in the end.

This mentality in post-breakup is going to tear you apart. You must have justified the break-up so now you must face the fact that the world is ruthless and it can take its toll on those that are strong enough to survive. If you have feelings for someone then follow them and if you want to get over him, give him some room and back off. Approaching the one you love intimately will only harm you.

I am having the same problem, my husband (I was with him 9 years) ran off with another woman. The thing that is helping me forget is staying busy and looking for new prospective relationships. Keeping busy helps me not think about it. In time I won't feel the loss as much or at all!

Sometimes it is hard to let go of someone. You need to think about if you really love him or not. A lot of the time people think that they want to be with someone just because they don't have them anymore. If he said a lot of mean stuff to you just try to think about that a lot to help you get over him.

it could actually be very difficult to 4get the memories of ones first love.if actually u do want 2 4get the beautiful memories the first step to take is to burn all cards,delete his sms from Ur phone,avoid going to places you both went together and if possible avoid friends[couples]u both shared together.The second and most important thing is to go out there and get a new and exciting friend spend all of your leisure time with this new friend of yours and when ever memories of your ex-boy friend comes up try and feed up mind with the bitter memories you both had together i am so sure that this will help you in getting over him.GOODLUCK.....................

I think it's more that you miss having SOMEONE around that supposedly loves you. He didn't love you that's pretty clear. No one that is unkind isn't "in love". Yet, you were in love with him and it hurts that the relationship ended. Give yourself permission and time to grieve and then let go. Pretty soon you'll start feeling better.

The only cure for forgetting an X is to get a new guy.
A rebound guy could do, if he is really in you. You will even feel bad for you not being so much for him, but comforts and boosts your confidence.
THAN, look for your right guy. I think that's the only cure. honestly.

It takes time, surround yourself with friends and family. Get out and do things. It is not always easy but time does help with everything.
