Is my best friend right (advice??)?

well i have this ex boyfriend and its been about 2 months since our breakup and im still very hurt. im still in love with him just as much as i was when we were together. But there's this other guy who likes me and is also a close friend. My best friend told me today that the quickest way to get over somebody is to go out with somebody else. Is she right about this??





p.s. my ex broke up with me (even though that's pretty obvious)Is my best friend right (advice??)?
It might be the quickest, but it's not always the smartest. Don't let a new guy become your rebound, it would not be respectful. It's been two months though so I'd say you're spending too much time dwelling on the ex.Is my best friend right (advice??)?
I think the reason why some people believe that it is sometimes best to go out with someone right after a painful breakup is because it is an attempt to distract you from constantly thinking about that person.


However this does not guarantee that you wil magically feel better about the situation nor is it fair to the other person who is trying to pursue a relationship with you.


If you sincerely have feelings for the new guy then I do think that it will help you, if not, try to think of something to do to occupy your time.It might even be better to spend more time with family and friends.


Hope this helps!
Not necessarily, especially if you're still upset. You're not completely over it and by dating someone else, it's not going to magically make you happy and forget all about him.


Date someone whenever you're truly ready for it and not as a ';bandage'; for a bad breakup.

who iz ur friend. he/she has bad advice. no no no! u will be desperate if u do that. talk 2 ur ex and go over the EXACT reason why u two broke up. and then after that ask when is the right time to maybe discuss being close friends again.








if all goes well after that you can maybe work ur way back up to gf and bf. remember these things take time. don't go the quick and easy route. all though this may work for a while, u will b hurt in the long run. trust me, there have been many boys who have liked me. and if i did not want to date them, i didnt. its ok to say no and totally ok to talk with ur ex about how u 2 can get back together. if he still sez no, then just be friends. my bff iz a guy and never have we dated. u can always talk to a TRUE friend. if he doesnt wanna talk about it or acts immiturly, dnt date him. he iz a dud.








glad I could help,

It's the best way to get over your fear's of rejection.





But unless it turns into a real relationship. . .


after he's gone you will feel just as lonely.





This is what I have heard . . . never tried it yet.





Iv only had one ex . . . and she . . . kinda took the wind out of me.





So I opted to just stay single a while.
Yes she is smart and very right so go after someone new and get some new perspectives on things, who knows you may have the time of your life.
I think your friend is right. If you had broken up a week ago I wouldn't recommend it, but it has been 2 months and I think its probably time to start moving on and finding better guys out there. Good luck
yea it really depends on the guys, but my advice is to just go out with him :) who knows what might happen





good luck(:
if the guy is closer than your ex than yeah
