Does meeting new people really help getting over an ex?

My girlfriend and I broke up a month ago. She does not want to get back together, but I am having a terrible time moving on. I met a new girl who is very nice and interested, but all I cannot get excited about it. I know I’m not over my ex yet, but feel like I need to go out with other people to help get over her. Problem is I have no desire to hang out with anyone else and all I want is my ex back.

It does help but only if you allow it to. Right now the break up is a bit fresh and so it’s hard for you to enjoy yourself in the company of another woman. I know cause I’m going through it myself. My ex broke up with me 6 months ago and I’m still not over her but I can’t just sit still and let life pass me by. At first, I didn’t want to know anything about another woman but with time, I’ve gone out on dates and had great times. It does help and being distracted is a big part of getting over an ex. In time, you’ll know what I’m talking about. Good luck!

    Actually, it really does. If you have fun with other people, it makes you forget the other person you had troubles with. If it doesn’t, go back to your ex, and just talk. Conversation is key. You will jump back in the game.

    Yes it will help, however it will be a rebound relationship and in those types of relationships some one always gets hurt. There is no getting around it. So, be careful you don’t want to mess up somebody else’s emotions to cure your own, that would be just selfish. Try just being friends with people and not starting any kind of relationship.

    moving on really is imp otheriwse one loses self dignity.it has happened wid me..my ex didn’t care a damn abt me yet i wanted him.thn a few frnds came in my life n helped me get over it..i didn’t tell them abt my ex so they didn’t give me any pity…rather i talked normally wid them and in return they responded normally too….that made me feel better.getting pity hurts more…so if u make frnds just try to be normal….n man u r lucky to get a new gf who likes u..plz go 4 it becoz ur ex doesn’t want u anymore rather the new girl wants u…..so u r lucky that way.never run after a person…..always give imp to those who love u and can take care of u..in today’s world pple dnt love truly..if u think u can find true love in the new girl, plz make her a gud frnd first and thn head it off as her bf if u like her personality,,

    sometimes yes. sometimes no, specially if the girl would be a rebound. you’ll find again yourself where you were. getting over an ex takes time. it true love has really hit you, it might take a while but time will come which you’d tell yourself "it’s over."
