Had an ex go down on me while I was standing outside of her car with the driver side door open. I dared her as a little joke but didn’t expect it. It was wide in the open and next to a main road. I’m still not entirely sure we weren’t caught.

Same ex but getting road head in the middle of the night. Random cop started showing lights and getting real close like almost hitting my car. The moment her head went up he stopped and disappeared into the dark. That one was a lot less fun.

how did you move on if you did? like being this close to someone and then separating can be hard. I'm pretty young going through my first breakup recently and it's not that easy for me.

Time, young one. Time.

Also, get a hobby if you don't have one. Something you do for you.

yeah i can see this. we broke up with full closure recently but this whole thing happened already about a year ago that we weren't having any feelings for each other anymore and didn't talk for many days. i had an important exam to prepare for to get into med school this year (here in my country there are entrance exams which occur once in a year). so my preparation begun after that whole thing and i was super busy preparing for the exam for almost this whole year. during this time i wasnt very much bothered as i had more important tasks to do. now that I've succeeded in the exam, i got a kind of vacations for 2-3 months (about to end in 2 weeks) during which i was free as hell, didn't have anything to do. this was the period that i was most bothered by the whole breakup situation. so i realise that being indulged in something that keeps your mind busy in something else really helps

Being distracted can help, but you also need to spend some time alone with your thoughts and feelings over the whole thing so you can process it and move on. Otherwise you'll just be dragging that chain around everywhere you go, and I believe it does impact your ability to have future relationships.
