it's the time when you need to be alone and heal yourself, love yourself, so that you don't have to feel so dang needy for a guy's love and approval all the time. it's time for you to let go of all the BS and fix yourself.
hugs and prayers for you.

the thing is, i really don't kno how to do that myself, n i can't afford to see a therapist right now. i'm pretty fucked
look into what the agencies can do for you. some of them do sliding scale and you pay when you can. that's the only way i get to see a therapist.
the only one i found here i was seeing for $15 an hour but i don't think i can go lower, n that's if my timeslot hasn't been taken by someone else by now
Fake it till you make it!
I have been in a situation like this.
You hafta ignore him and his happiness and pretend to be happy all the time (even when he isn't around-because his friends might be)
You hafta have him thinking that you are happy without him. That you're over him as if he was nothing. Down the road he'll want to talk to you...you tell him you're busy, not maliciously, but nonchalantly. He'll start saying hi to you when he sees you, if ur with someone...just look at him and don't respond and start talking to the person ur with. If ur alone, just look at him and give a half smile.
This wil all make him feel as shitty as you feel now. Never let him know ur hurt, never talk about him where ANYONE who you don't want to hear can hear it. Try not to talk about him at all.
Find a guy to hang around (but don't lead him on) just so ur ex will see him and you together.
Fight fire with fire, but kill him with kindness!
This WILL work!!

i've really wanted to do the whole thing of having another guy around me, the problem is i don't have one 

well, all the other stuff i told you is WAYYYY more important than that anyway. Make friends with a football player...that REALLY pissed my ex off.
i'm thinking its going to be the latter...that's how it always seems to work with me, if i don't kill myself first
Well all I can say is that if you don't kill yourself it does get much earlier. At some point in my life this is what I wanted, to be jaded to the point of not caring so I wouldn't get hurt anymore. Then there was a period in the middle when I didn't want to lose that feeling of love, but now that it's gone I realize the whole ordeal was me making stupid decisions based on an emotion which is essentially just lust.
It's best to lose that irrational love that comes to us as teenagers. Love can still exist, but it needs to be tempered by logic and allowed to grow slowly, not embraced and followed blindly. Essentially once you control your emotions rather than being controlled by them you can love in a way that is real and protects you from being hurt nearly as badly because the love is tempered by realism and experience.

lol, Sorry, I didn't mean to say that you had to be a teenager, I just meant that's where it starts. Most of the periods in my life that I'm referring to were in my mid twenties.
You're gaining my respect by the way you look at things - I am trying to figure stuff out - I don't care about much but don't know love well either - or at least it's hard to define when there's different types and nothing to compare it to. Also I've never had a gf.
It doesn't help that the kind of love we find in movies and books so often is just a fantasy. The mistake most of us make in love is thinking that we can find someone that can somehow fix us. Many of us feel a hole inside, that there's something missing, and we hope to find someone to fill that hole.
In reality however, it is up to us to fill that emptiness, whether with a hobby or purpose or even our jobs, it's different for everyone but everyone needs to find their own peace. This is the meaning of the saying that you have to love yourself if you want to love someone else, since real love is something more than looking for someone to be a crutch.

Indeed I suppose depending on ourselves meens we need nothing else+ can still be happy even if alone! As you say, lots of people want a quick-fix, i think of the whole thing like rehab from some kinda drug - you crave if you go cold turkey, if you get the fix you just appease the addiction and go back, but if it's unsatisfied your body produces it's own again
It's exactly like that, in fact during sex the body releases a chemical known as oxytocin which creates a feeling of euphoria. The more sex is had with the same partner the more the oxytocin increases. Since it's like a drug, it creates a very real addiction in people. Even if someone treats them like shit, and it's clear that they shouldn't be with them, the person will persist in the relationship because they want that feeling.
I am in love with a woman who is very much self destructive and I have to sit by and watch it and yet I still love her and dont give up and I fear that one day she is going to give me a boot and not even have me as a friend much less as a future lover.. I wont tell you there are more fish in the sea because I know for my heart no other fish will ever be above the one I love now... all I can say is I wish you luck in life since when it comes to love.. we both fucking have bad luck that we for no logical reasons keep fallowing...
i hear that.
i actually got to talk to albert yesterday n he told me that he's noticed i have a lot of self destructive programming. normally i'm in denial of that, but yesterday when he said that i was just like, "yeah i do." i kno its true.

Guys are fucking assholes. Im really beginning to think that Jimmy and I are over too because guys like to care only about themselves and not for the people who actually care about them. Maybe if you give him space, he'll come back to you. And if not, then I guess he didnt deserve you.
I hope everything works out. Im here for you if you need me...just call me.
i actually got to talk to him yesterday...i hadn't planned on it, it just worked out that way. i posted a video about it.
