I cant handle my feelings anymore, and I dont know what to do. Heres the thing. I was engaged to (lets call him Brandon). and he broke up with me a month ago. I love this kid with all my heart. and I can’t get over him. 3weeks later, i found out that my best friend (Lets call him Jake) liked me. So we started dating exactly 3weeks after. ..Im really only dating him cuz i feel like i need to get over Brandon, he has had 2 girlfriends since we broke up, one of which was my worst enime (she had put Brandon and I through hell the seven months we were together) and the other was my bestfriend. Jake and Brandon hate each other. (because 3months into mine and Brandons relationship he tried to break us up). 6months into our relationship Brandon broke up with me because I had promised him i wouldnt talk to Jake anymore, but still did.. Brandon and I broke up again one month later,(a month ago). and we never got back together, like i said. And now, like I said, Im only dating Jake to get over Brandon. but now i am getting so much shit because im dating jake and when i explain myself to anyone the dont understand. I still love Brandon and still want to be with him. But I dont think he wants me back like i want him back. I really just want people to understand what Im going threw.Any advice on what I should do?

oh wow your helpful! Jerk
Well, I went through a really bad break up this year, and I am still going through it. I completely understand wanting to date others( especially when your ex is dating already). But I would like to give you some advice. I dated a guy just to get over my ex and things did NOT turn out well, lots of feelings were hurt, and the whole situation turned ugly. After all of that, and now several months later, I have learned that, even though it’s hard and really sucks sometimes, getting over an ex on your own is one of the most empowering things you can do for yourself( and when I say on your own, I mean being single). It will let you know how strong YOU are and it allows you to really heal. So that when you start dating again, you can be 100% with someone else! I know it feels impossible and like you will never stop thinking about him, but it will get better. You will have good days and bad days, but with lots of time and spending time with others, you will heal.
I don’t know if any of this helps you, but that’s my little piece of advice!
well first off so u dont make the same mistake in the future, dont lie. if u tell them the truth an the truth makes sense to u, then shouldnt the person who understands u the most accept it? if not then i dont see y u love someon so selfish. i dont think u should be dating “jake” to get over another guy. well from my point if view its just a mean thing to do. but that parts just opinion so dont take every word of mine as truth. besides that point, i dont think u should be dating one guy with intentions to date another. if the guy ur going out with ever found out, that would be horrible. my advice is just try ur best to forget him. if he doesnt want to hook back up then theres no point. plus id feel bad for the other guy. i was that guy once. hurt quite a bit…
