True. However, I imagine that what our friend here is asking for really is how to make that time as painless as possible.

Bad news for him then.

If he is really into her...in love.....then it ain’t going to be painless and that pain cannot be mitigated in the short term.

I can only speak from my own personal experience of heartbreak.

You just keep on keepin’ on until one morning you wake up and she isn’t the first thing you think about.

Then you realise that when you think of her, it is the sex you remember more than any endearing (or annoying) trait she may have had.

You see her walking down the street with another fellow and you don’t feel like you have been gut punched.

Eventually you will go out with another girl and find yourself both interested in her and attracted to her.

And 40 years later you are still with her, have children and grandchildren and look back on your heartbroken Lothario days with wistful affection :)

This will pass ;)

I'm 11 years into that process and while I don't think of her every day it would hit like a brick if I saw her (& that is even if she was on her own). Good job she lives far enough away now for that not to be a concern.

It's all compartmentalised and I'm not moping around, at the end of the day are you going to be miserable all your life? You just got to get going.

Funny thing is and quite coincidentaly, I have just finished a phone call from....my ex GF’s husband.

After a couple of years had passed my wife and I were on holiday in Spain and my ex and her pal were there and we bumped into them.

It was all bygones with me and her and much to my surprise my wife and her really hit it off.

The result was we are all great mates now and when my ex got married several years later we were at the wedding.

Her husband has become one of my best mates and although not a Blue, he comes the game with me an odd time :)

Whatabout you, Bin...have you met someone else?

Yes married with 2 kids mate. I did rush into that relationship afterwards which as I mentioned earlier probably not the best idea. That sounds very amicable and glad you got a good thing going on. For me I slapped myself out of a stupor but didn't really grieve which meant I'm not fully over it but it is what it is. She broke my heart into tiny little pieces.

Many months afterwards she did make contact with me which I now know was an attempt to get back together but basically I gave her the cold shoulder. I was already dating my wife to be then. I don't regret that as I was messed around something chronic by her over that year and whatever she had to deal with to point her back I had already made my mind enough was enough.
 
I must say one thing which has always helped me through the bad times in my life....romantic heartbreak, illness, unemployment, bereavement.....is that dear old mistress we all have in common on here.

EFC.

My big heartbreak came in the early months of 1977 which just happened to coincide with a very exciting season and a half at Goodison.

The League Cup semi with Bolton, the Villa trilogy, the run to the F.A. Cup semi final and Clive flippin’ Thomas :mad:

That carried over into the ‘77/78 season when Gordon’s team went on that long unbeaten run and we were in Title contention all season.

Big Bob and Davie Thomas of blessed memory.

I met my wife in the summer of ‘78 and the first trip we went on together was to County Donegal to see the Blues in Europe versus Finn Harps.

Whatever happens in our lives, our Grand Old Team is always there for us.

God knows that supporting Everton brings it's own ups and downs BUT, it has been the one constant throughout my life. The one thing that will NEVER change.
I've had my share of problems with personal relationships, relocations, job changes, bereavements, but these are just part of life's rich tapestry.
They are merely a distraction from the real purpose of life - UTFT :dance:
