Dear Karen

i’ve broke up with ex for almost half a year already. but i still can’t forget him. he knows that i still like him. but he kept asking me to forget about him, and i should move on with my life. i know i should stop thinking about him. but i can’t. i still like him. what should i do, karen?

I know this is really hard. He’s right though. You should take his advice and forget about him. If it’s not meant to be then it’s not meant to be. You need someone who really wants to be with you and even though you really like your ex, you can be with someone who actually wants you as much as you want them.
Liking someone more than they like you is very bad for your self esteem.
Put him behind you and know in your heart that you will love someone else as much again and that you weren’t supposed to be with your ex. Allow yourself to feel sad but try not to dwell on thoughts of him. Be kind to yourself. When you put him behind you, you will open the door for someone new. Good luck
