it’s not you it’s me

Me and my boyfriend broke up after a year he used the “it’s not you it’s me” excuse and I’m trying so hard not to think about him and to try and get over him but I miss him so damn much. It hurts the most cause our relationship was going well and I was literally blindsided. He told me he’s not able to give me the commitment I will require and doesn’t want to lead me on for years to come.

I understand his reasoning even if I don’t completely agree I understand.

My question is how do I get over him. In the past I always ended up talking to someone new or jumping on dating apps to feel confident and desired (yes I know this isn’t the best way to deal with it) But this time I want to take time for myself and be single but I don’t know how to

do that.

I have too much pride to beg my ex but I feel like I won’t ever get over him on my own. I don’t think I’ve ever been truly single and I just want to be comfortably alone and work on myself.

P.S

I don’t really have a lot of friends that are available to chill all the time.
