First Breakup, Advice and Questions please?
Hello. So today, I guess I dumped my boyfriend. We got in a fight in the middle of Spring Break and he said that he doesn't know anymore. I begged him to keep staying with me and to try harder. So, he told me to act normally until Sunday, which is when we'll see each other again and talk face to face. During that time he told me that he still loved me, which I found out today was a lie. We had a talk today during the break time, since we both have classes at the same school on Sunday, that he thinks he has to break up with me because it's been mostly his fault. I asked him again if he would like to try. I saw on his face, that he had lost interest in me. He responded by saying that we should start over as friends. He then said that he would try, but that there is no point to a relationship if it was one sided love. I then asked if he still loved me and he said "I did, but now I have no urge to respond to your messages quickly and I don't feel anything." Right when he said that, the break ended and I went back to my class, and he headed to his. I consulted my friends and they told me to just dump him because I don't deserve someone who wouldn't keep his promises with me or would fill me with lies. I went to his class and told him that "We're over. Thanks for your consideration." Then, I was talking to my friend in the same class and he said that my boyfriend said that I dumped him just because I didn't want to feel bad that he dumped me first. He also laughed and called me a *****. So basically that is it. I don't know what to do about this now, and I'm seeing him at school tomorrow. Why do you think he said those things about me? What does he feel now? And help, I'm trying to get over him as fast as possible. Thank you <3

Dearest,
He is a teenage boy who has yet to grow the hell up and is unable to handle a breakup maturely. I assume he didn’t want to lose face in front of his friends, or let anybody think that he’s the pathetic one. You don’t deserve him, and he sure as heck doesn’t deserve you.
As to the moving on part, here’s what I suggest. First, rant a lot. A lot, a lot. Cry it all out, if there’s anything to be emotional about. Eat as much ice cream and chocolate as you like. Then, hang out with your friends. Bond with your family. Laugh. Swim. Sing. Play the piano. Feel the sun on your skin. Bike. Meet new people. Write. Write a lot. Go on walks. Take mental health days. Read. Read John Green. Paint. Feel infinite. Breathe. Preoccupy yourself so that you don’t think about it, but you don’t repress it. Appreciate the smaller things in life. Move on.
Stay strong, beautiful. Xox <3
