Today, I realised I've been depressed about my recent break up for longer than the relationship even lasted. FML

Op here, first of all, thanks for the support. Mostly. It's not actual depression, just feeling rather miserable about it all, especially as many of my friends are all in happy relationships that I see every day. We dated for just over three months, and I guess the main reason I'm still upset is that she was my first proper girlfriend, first kiss, and at the risk of sounding a bit too pathetic, my first love. To those saying that I should get out and find a hobby, I do. I play the French horn in and out of school, and I'm in the Air Training Corps, which takes up nearly all my free time. The only problem is, she does exactly the same, so I still see her every day and we regularly have camps together, so it's hard to avoid her. Saying that, we are still friends, and the break up was very calm, so there are no hard feeling between us. Anyway, sorry for the long comment, and thanks for getting this posted!

My cheese burger lasted 5 min. My fat lasted 5 months. That's just how things work.

It obviously isn't worth being upset about just pick yourself up and move on :)

Gaming definitely replaces romantic companionship. I know LOTS of gamers that don't have girlfriends! Edit: DAMMIT that was directed at the previous comment *siiiiigh* I'm such an asshole....

They say it takes the length of the relationship to get over it

"Recent breakup"? how long was your relationship? 5 days? it might be time to accept that there is not really anything lost if it was only five days. get over it.

You DO realize that people handle things differently from one another, right?

I was expecting the comment section to be absolutely terrible, but I was pleasantly surprised by how support everyone is being on here. I was in the same situation at one point, keep your head up! Stay strong :) and should someone come along who's interested, give them a chance. You never know ;)

Once you start to really care for someone it will take forever to stop. It means that you are a really good person
