How can I deal after my boyfriend of 15 years dumped me?

My boyfriend dumped me for a girl that he meet playing an online game. All he wanted to do is play all the time, next thing I knew he would not call me or talk to me. We have been together for 15 years, and I cant seem to stop thinking about him. He is now in love with a girl that he knew for a few months and lives on the other coast. How can I learn to not care about him?

    Sorry to hear that. The best way is to throw away all the things that remind you of him, start fresh get a make over, take a vacation and hang out with friends. He will regret what he has done to you and when he realizes that it’ll be to late. By then you have moved on. You deserve better and he is not worth a single tear from you. What he did was despicable and you’ll find someone that truly deserves you, so be strong and you’ll pull through.

    Have cry baby days when you feel like it and heal with two guys that will never let you down Ben & Jerry

    After year 2 you guys should have been married. Why continue dating someone for 15yrs?

    Here’s my opinion.
    First of all, ignore all the people giving ignorant, silly answers saying that you guys should have been married.
    Secondly, don’t blame yourself at all. You didn’t do anything wrong.
    Don’t try to make yourself get over it. Just take your time, if you feel like crying, cry, and when you realise that you deserve the feel better than he is making you, do some soul-searching.
    After such a long relationship, you might feel as though you’ve lost yourself a bit. If this is the case, dedicate all your time to yourself.
    Of course, it all depends on what make you happy. If you’d rather be alone with your thoughts for a while, then do it. If being with family and friends helps you feel better, spend time with them.

    My advice is to do something completely for yourself. Take up a new hobby. This can help to fill a void and let you find yourself again.

    I’m really sorry that you’ve been treated this way and you don’t deserve it at all.

    Be happy :D

    who dates a guy for 15 years? No next step?

  8. LY Says :

    just know that if he was that dumb and ignorant you need to foget someone like that. That was dumb, she will probably turn out to be a bad girlfriend and use him. He will learn because you know Kharma. It will get him

    Forget about him. 15 years is a long time u gave to him. You cannot get those years back but you can bounce back and forget his sorry ass.

    Oh sweetie I’m sorry :( . I went thru the same thing with a bf of six years and my only advice is to not force yourself to not care about him, you always will. You gotta focus on you though, it gets better I promise.
