Answers:
People tend to want what they cannot have and even more so when someone pushes them away they cling to that person even more!.

You CAN move on, and this is strictly psychological!. You are not crazy, you just need to learn more effective ways to handle your emotions!.

Try another outlet when you feel the way you do!. Try writing how your are feeling, keeping yourself busy, walk, jog, run, scream into a pillow if you must!. However you get rid of those negative feelings doesn't matter as long as your do!.

Don't feel sorry for yourself and dwell on the negative!. It is completely normal to be sad after a break up and everyone has thoase feelings the difference from one person to the next is only how they deal with it!.

Men and women are usually turned off or scared away when their partner is very needy!. So try approaching relationships in a different way, do not invest all of your feelings and energy in this person unless they are doing the same for you!. For instance if they give 50% then you give 50 % and if they give 20 then you give 20!.

Finally, if you do tend to be needy then you may have some unresolved issues from the past you have not dealt with, maybe from childhood!. Separation anxiety or something of that nature!. Try talking to a counselor about it they can help you in ways you have not thought of!. This is why they get paid the big bucks!. Perhaps they can identify what triggers these feelings and you can finally deal with them and put them to rest!. If you do not have insurance and are in school go to your school counselor!. I went to the one at my community college when I became overwhelmed with things!. This helped me reorganize my priorities!. Hope this helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its kind of an Obcessive Disorder!. I have felt like this many times too!. I eventually started to take Paxil CR and it helped alot with my behaviour!. Maybe you should go to your Dr!. and see if this is for you too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
