Anyone have a cure for heartache?

I'm currently in my old home town and caught up with some old friends and the toppic of a former close friend (who I was hung up on for at least 4 years and possibly longer) came up, and I realised that even after having no contact for 3 years now I am still not over them.


I think your concept of "getting over" is broken. It takes Alzheimer to forget the past.
 
Time. Time is the only thing that heals.

Also, I disagree with making lists of what you like and what you didn't like and all of that. There are likes and dislikes with everybody. The thing that helps healing is recognizing that everybody can get hurt in life and does get hurt in life. Fortunately, most people can eventually lick their wounds and bounce back

The purpose of writing things down is making sense of something that is confusing. Being able to keep track of what you're feeling/thinking now and what you were feeling/thinking yesterday also helps get a "different view". It gives perspective. But yeah, spending an arbitrarily long time in convoluted brooding works, too. To each, their own.
