Question: Move on!.!.!.but where!? overrated!?
I really hate it when people (who don't know you or your situation) just ignorantly say 'move on!.!.!.forget about him/her'!. I mean it all depends!. If he/she cheated and dumped you to be with someone new!.!.!.then yeah, you can adopt this attitude!.!.!.'f*** him/her I can survive (and better) on my own!.!.!.I can find someone better, blah blah!. But if it's not that simple, if the friendship, the 'connection' is so deep and strong (and of course both sides didn't hurt each other intentionally or permanently damage whatever they have had) then why do we have to move on, if this 'moving on' is in a sense of erasing that important part of your life, the part that makes you happy, the part that means so much to you!? I have a bit of a hard time trying to convince my friends that I really wanna be friends with my ex!. His friendship makes me happy!. I can understand that my friends are being protective of me which I appreciate, but I just think that this 'moving on' is overrated and sometimes irrelevant!. It maybe good short-term I mean during the angry phase to get us through the hard time, but at the end of the day, moving on (unless you find someone new with deeper connection) simply means to erase that important part without going anywhere!. What do you think!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Moving on can mean a lot of things!.!. If you're too dependent on that person!.!. or you insist it's just friendship you want with them but it really isn't!.!.then it's important to move on!.!. I wouldnt say overrated!. Just different opinions for different situations!. If you know what you want to do, then why bother convincing anyone!. I got a lot of different answers from my friends!. In the end I did what was best for me!. But, I did consider it thoroughly!. I'm happy now!. So whatever decision I chose, not the ones they gave, made me happy in the end!. Do right by you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
