Heartbroken

Paula
I feel really pathetic posting on here in this situation but my boyfriend and I broke up last Thursday and I am terribly heartbroken. I really thought he would be the one that I'd spend the rest of my life with. We both want to get back together eventually but he couldn't do a relationship right now. I am just having a hard time being happy with being alone. I got so used to having my best friend to talk to. Has anyone ever continued being good friends with an ex? Any advice for moving forward with being myself right now?
