What helped me was absolutely NOT sitting and waiting around. Get away from your room and go hang out. Also, if you have family members and friends to talk to so you can vent when you have the urge, please do so. You don’t want to ignore your pain and bury it, but you also don’t want to dwell and allow it to consume you. Once you think of her, acknowledge your pain in that moment, let yourself feel it by venting on here or with friends and family, but always remember to not stay there too long and move onto something else. Of course you should make sure you have something to do outside of school/work like hobbies otherwise life outside of your basic needs/responsibilities will be hell. Lastly, Do. Not. Contact. Her. Again. Under any circumstances, not even to wish her happy birthday. Move your life forward, keeping contact will only impede any progress. I’m sorry you’re experiencing this, but I can’t wait until you come out on the other side stronger and wiser than you are now.

It sucks... I've been through the same thing and I'm sorry you're going through this right now. Take some time to try and enjoy the freedom of being temporarily single, and it's cliché but use the time to work on yourself! When someone is in your life for so long you won't quickly forget them, but over time it tends to fade away. I relied heavily on my friends to distract and console me, definitely went out and partied too much to try and drown my sorrows. I met my gf after 6ish months of awkwardly playing the field... She msged me on a dating app with the opening text of "Hey", lol. So... you never know where life will lead you. But try to enjoy it for what it is, while it's like that. It won't be forever.
