Been struggling alot recently. . Trying to get over someone special and friends tell me “she’s just another girl”. I get they mean well, but sometimes she isn’t just another girl. How do you convince yourself it isn’t the end?

    You really haven’t given us much to go on here.

    Were you in a relationship? For how long?

    Also, what sort of age group are we talking here? Your options and perspectives are likely to be different if you are in your teens vs 20s vs 30s, etc.

        Mate, going to say this honestly and directly.

        You loved the idea of her in your head. And that idea took over.

        She didn’t share the same feelings and now you’re running off emotions, rather than logic.

        Spend a week recovering, then move on.

        You get over her by realizing that investing your happiness in one single other person is a losing proposition.

        Invest in yourself. Figure out what you want in life, then go live that life. Build up a supportive group of excellent friends. Then go date a ton of women. And you’ll realize she was just another girl.
