Is it normal to miss him?

Okay so, around in February, this guy just really betrayed me and so I let him go; no longer in my life, etc. the thing is I just miss him. I see his name or something about him and it hurts.
We mostly became friends(and later a couple) because I needed someone to fill the void and he was there to help w/ that. he did me wrong but I feel like I still want him in my life. Maybe I shouldnt have acted so impulsively?
Im hoping this a temp. thing; its really annoying because I cant function right and ugh. yeah. is this normal and what can I do to move on from this?

    It's perfectly normal to miss a friend when you must part company, for whatever reason. The void in your life will continue until you replace him with another person, but that doesn't necessarily mean you must rush out and throw yourself into another relationship.
    Don't be weak and go backwards in your life. Look forward to meeting new and interesting people who may become much better friends than your ex ever was.
    In time the loneliness and pain will fade and be supplanted by good friends and feelings. Be strong and patient.

    It's normal to miss someone you were so close with, but remember that you dumped him for a reason so honor yourself and don't look back. He's you ex for a reason!

    Yes, it's normal. It'll take time to heal but you will. Just distract yourself with something you enjoy doing for the time being.

  • I removed images of my version of you guy out of my life. Deleted his phone number. Removed him from facebook. I took memorabilia of/from him and put it in a drawer. Not having access to him, not seeing items that reminded me of him, and not knowing what was going on in his life made me feel a little better. It feels like a closed door now, and I am gradually filling the void with self-love. I don't have a void anymore and don't feel the need or desire to get into a relationship with anyone! Perhaps that would work for you?
