How can I be a better boyfriend?

How can I get better at moving on from my ex boyfriend?

• About a week ago I broke up with my ex boyfriend of 2 years because he started treating me in a way that I would not settle for, so I left him because I knew I deserved to be treated better, as hard as it was. He had a huge problem with lying, and started hiding things from me, so I had to draw the line. We're both 18, seniors in high school and I'm going to the college of my dreams this Fall out of state, so I'd leave anyway. I am not the average teenager; I have my pilot's license, and I model as a side job, I've been so blessed with great friends and family, but why do I feel so hurt. How can I get OVER this? He still pops up in my head from time to time; I guess I feel lonely because was with him for 2 years. Does this loneliness go away? I don't want to be someone who wastes their time worrying over a breakup, but at the same time I wonder about what he's doing sometimes, etc. It's like I'm giving him the credit for hurting me by thinking about him. (I do not contact him). How can I get better at moving on... without someone else constantly by my side? Thank you for your advice... :)

  Start hanging out with your girlfriends more often and soon enough you won't feel so lonely anymore.
