How do you move on?

[Tomr2527]

You know the story, guy meets girl online, guy gets feeling for girl, girl wants to focus on her husband. They stop talking and now they’re happily married.

How do you move on from these situations? Anyone have any tips on how to forget them?

DM me if more appropriate.

Hmmm so have experienced this sort of the other way around and it definitely hurts. It gets easier just try and move on especially if the other person has. It really hurts but it's not good for you to keep going back or like stare at your phone or whatever hoping for a message. I had messages I saved and yes sadly I used to read over them like even when we were still in contact. Top tip is do not do that it makes it harder just delete (but only do that when you're ready) don't be tempted to message don't look for them online, be good to yourself, it definitely hurts but it fades.

Thank you, it’s so hard to not look at their social media pages these days it’s far too accessible. I need to move on and just stop thinking about them

Weird, I was thinking about this just now.
I'd say it's the classic combination of time and patience but as well as that, breaking the habit of thinking about them. Thought patterns end up stuck when things like this happen, I find it good to consciously break off from thinking about it and make an effort to shift thoughts to something else.
Easier said than done though, right?

You'll be fine, in time. Living well is the best revenge. Good luck!

Thanks for everyone’s responses, genuinely have helped me and I feel a lot stronger today! Time to move forward and leave the past behind.

In my experience of this, I found it helpful sharing the story and with each telling it got a bit easier. I'm not saying give the blow by blow, just in general. My thread is probably buried in the forums, The Void After Goodbye, if you want to read a bit more. Good luck and don't rush the process, we all grieve in different ways and yes, even online relationships count.

I just remind myself that they just use you to cum and at the end of the day they still have a shit sex life and I’m single and a happy camper
