How am I going to cope with this?

A few hours ago (1am my time) I found out that one of my best friends and previous lover died last night. He was involved in a bad accident on his street bike where he ran directly into the side of a van killing him instantly. I am in shock. I'm heartbroken. We've been friends for years and dated too. We broke up mid January because of distance but I never got over him completely. He was amazing and I have so many memories with him. We were so close and countless times cried together and held one another. The thought that I will never see him or speak to him again is killing me. How will I recover from this? I've lost other friends and my mom and family members but this is so unresolved and unexpected. Help. I need some encouragement or anything to cheer me up.

    My best friend was also my crush and while she's not dead, she might never want to talk to me again, so I have some idea what you're going through. This certainly is gonna take some time (this happened months ago and I'm STILL not over her). The first step is to accept that this will take some time. What I would do is talk to people about (it helps trust me). And hang out with your other friends/family members, go out with your other friends and make new memories with them. Perhaps one way is to put things that remind you of them in a box. DO NOT throw them away, but put them in the closet or something like that. That way, you'll always remember it, but you wont obsess over it and focus on new friends and experiences. Hope this helps

    It was the end of his Hayat(means end of days in his life).. so he had to leave this earth..but as Allah has given you alife you will have to live it...as you said you guys were in a relationship means you both loved each other atleast for a few moments..due to sake of this love you will have to live your life,go take your steps forward and almighty will guide you the best... killing ur self is not the solution it is getting scared of this life and without fighting leaving the earth like a coward.. so make a target in your brain... ur love for him in your heart, eyes straight and chest up MOVE ON MY FRIEND !!!!
