Is it normal to never be happy anymore because of a girl

I dated this girl for a year...she left me and is already with someone else. I tried to get her back she just won't take me. I'm never happy anymore. My friends try to help, girls try to flirt with me, and my family thinks I need counseling. Is it normal to be so depressed?

    all normal, except for the part that you tried to get the bitch back, weak.

    You're family is probably right... While it's normal to still have feelings, it sounds like there are some deep rooted issues? Counseling might help you work on YOU to get over her.

    It's normal, but it isn't a good thing. I think part of the problem might be that you are fixating too much on the loss and you haven't accepted that you probably won't get her back. If you need closure to accept the end of the relationship, try to get that from her (politely & respectfully!, but after that you need to try to move on.

    It sucks and it hurts like hell, but you have to do it now before you dig yourself deeper into the hole that you are in. You don't have to move on by being with someone else, but to move on by not being consumed by her anymore. Focus on your friendships and your hobbies instead. And as stupid as it sounds, focus on yourself and find happiness within yourself.

    you can do it :)

    stop thinking about her, it only makes things worse.

    the best option is to find a new girl and that will make you completly forget about the incedent.

    It's totally normal. If this girl feels like she was your whole world or life, it's obvious that she was your first love. And the fact that she left you and is already with another guy, who wouldn't be depressed?

    Don't worry though, it's absolutely true when they say "time heals everything", it really does. What your feeling is a phase and will go away but you need to have a part in this to make it happen. Hang out with your friends more and just try to stay active and not think about the girl. You'll heal.
