I am having a really rough time getting through a break up. The break up was in no means out of the blue, and both of us have started to date again, but it is still really hard. The terrible good news is that we ended things amicably, so I still have very positive memories of our relationship, which makes it is impossible not to compare the new with the old. In the age of facebook and blogs, it is so hard to maintain sanity when you see the person you once loved deeply living life happily without you.  As selfish as this sounds, I cannot bear the thought of seeing him happy with anyone other than myself.  I feel so ashamed that I cannot get over this already, but try as I might, my brain will not let go and I am very concern that this will ultimately ruin the chances of fully committing to the present. Man, I hope I can get a grip soon.
