ok, this is a serious thread and we should respect the fact that the person that initiated it is not having the best of times. in which case it don't matter if that dude is gay or not.
i find MOVING ON a difficult thing to do, but honestly i find staying there for no reason even harder. move on mate, it can never get worse than what it is.
Yeah don't worry its normal... i had a 2 and a half yaer relationship that ended and it took me 2 and a half years to get over it and move on, and it was hard! ..and i'll always love her, but no longer wish to be with her..sometimes its good to help others when you can't seem to help yourself, it can make you feel better... another is when you feel the distracting and hurtful thoughts of your ex, imagine a pair of scissors snipping them away and then think of positive things and something else and slowly you will experience it less and less.. also perhaps you should consider seeing a counsellor.. as they have proven techniques and offer more support... good luck!

i always make sure i'm not going to die.The pain? It's a natural process, again, it means you are alive. Try handle it in traditional ways: friends, before asking for professional help.
They (the experts) say grieving (for that's what it is) can last very long - often longer than an year. But if you feel diminished and small from that experience - afraid that rejection will always be your fate, perhaps you should try to counter it. How? By going out; seeking others and maybe even talking to a therapist - though I would be very careful about who I choose. A psychiatrist could prescribe you anti-depressants which may also be helpful. You are dealing with an obsession here; never so simple a thing to get over.
