How to Get Over My First Girlfriend?

I just recently broke up with my girlfriend.

She was my first girlfriend ever, and I feel devastated.

I'm scared I'll never find another girl as nice or as beautiful as her, and that I won't find a girl that'll like me too.

I liked my ex, but we weren't that close, so I'm fine with finding another girl eventually.

How can I move on an find a "rebound girl"?

    Well first, you need to allow yourself to grief the ending of your relationship with your recent ex. Take time to yourself and learn to get over a lost love (cuz you never know, it may happen again). This should be a long process. After a few weeks of that, then it's time to start building up your self confidence again so that you can go back out there and find yourself a new lady.

    If you want to have like a "rebound" girl, you need to be up front and honest with her about only having her as your rebound. Don't make a girl think you want a long-term relationship or something like that and end up breaking her heart too. You'll be surprised how many girls would actually be okay with being a rebound for a guy lol.

    After you've had a rebound, go out there and find yourself another girl who is girlfriend material and leave the rebound girl in the past.

    It's only your first relationship, of course you'll be devastated! But that doesn't mean to keep bothering yourself about what went wrong or what you could have done or even if you'll find someone else. Of course you'll end up finding someone else, that just takes time. You can't always expect to have the perfect relationship with your first one. It doesn't work that way (most of the time). And you said it yourself, you weren't even that close, so I'm sure you'll get over her just fine. As for the rebound, don't do it. You'll probably end up just hurting her.

  • It's bad that you're trying to find a rebound girl. Imagine how you feel right now. Basically, by finding a rebound girl you're going to be doing the same thing to her that was done to you. Do you really want someone else to feel the way you do now? Think about that and remember: hurt people, hurt people.

    First you have to heal.

    If not you will eventually not learn and repeat your mistakes on the next girl.

    Take it easy be outgoing and form there you meet someone and take it slow to really get to know them

    Give it time avoid the ex at ll cost, for right now just so you can heal.

    And give it time.

    You will find a new girl maybe even more beautiful but more importantly who is right for you.

    Everyone has those fears.

    But fears are just fears.

    You'll find someone even better and you'll realize that there are other girls out there you could possibly fall in love with too.

    You might need time to get over this girl, but in the mean time you should try to talk to more girls and find another crush. For me, to get over someone I liked, I usually try to find another crush to take my mind off that person and see where it takes me

    When someone is in love and they can not get over it no matter what then that just means that you just like them because of the way they look. You will probably never get over it because falling in love is not a choice. You can control the things that you do. Now that is a choice.

    Its always hard for your first relationship!Everyone goes through it you have never been hurt that badly by someone you loved.You could think about what you like in a girl and find girls who match up to that and who knows maybe she will come back to you realizing how stupid she was for letting someone like you go it happens a lot

    Stop doing beta things and start doing alpha things. Talk to multiple girls. Have fun and make sure the girl(s) know you are having fun. Show them attention, but if they flake out on you do something else fun. Most importantly be yourself.
