Hey @redmars
Break ups are really hard. Especially when it’s your first relationship and/or when you were really close. If you do remain in contact, there’s a such a huge difference in the way you interact that sometimes it doesn’t feel like the same person anymore.
Two weeks is a short amount of time, so it is perfectly understandable that you’re not over it. Is there anyone you can talk to? Sometimes spending time with other people can be a good distraction and provide some company.
Try to be kind to yourself and think about what’s important to you. People get pretty intertwined in a relationship so the relationship ending sort of feels like they lost a part of themselves. It’s also really unsettling to have someone you thought would be in your future not be there in the way you imagined. It takes a lot of time to get used to change, especially significant change like this. It may be helpful to focus on a day/week rather than a year. Do some of the things you really enjoy or find some new hobbies. Whatever keeps you occupied for a bit and brings you some joy.
It is probably going to hurt for way longer than you want it to, but it will still get gradually better. Just be patient with yourself.
