How do you get over your first love???

Himani • A cringey 17yo who loves photography, art, and has completely irregular periods, unfortunately.

I met him on tumblr and we had similar interests so we eventually started talk and exchanging snapchats and phone numbers. He lived a 16 hour drive away and my parents are very strict about me talking to boys in general (like I’m not allowed to be in the same car or talk to them about homework or anything). And about 5 months ago, he asked me out and I was really really nervous because it was my first relationship and there wasn’t a huge chance that I could visit him and he was 19 and I was 17. Things progressed and I couldn’t imagine my life without him and we talked about what kind of a future we wanted and one we could possibly have together and I was completely in love with him and he said that he loved me more than anything is the world but in New Year’s Day, I broke up with him after he implied that he didn’t think that he saw a chance of meeting up and at that point I was so heartbroken and insecure and I thought that he probably only wanted me for nudes or something. But I told him I was upset and he didn’t fight for it but he still said he loved me and he never wanted to hurt my feelings. Now I just can’t stop picturing a future without him but I don’t know if he ever loved me enough. I can’t get over him. Any advice?
