The best way is to not try.....you will never forget them, but after a while, you wont want to forget them.

Hang in there, bro!

Watch a movie that they wouldn't want to see or go places or do things that they didn't enjoy doing and you do.
SoCal's ideas are great, too.
I drink, personally...

Stay busy. Hobbies, go out with friends. Find new person to get stuck in your mind. I find distracting myself with new girlies totally gets rid of thinking about old ones.

That reminds me of something that happened to me a few years back.

I used to work for the city parks and rec department of the small town where I grew up. One day, my boss asked me to go trim trees at a large park in the town. Well, for some reason, I got thinking about a girl that broke my heart and I got really mad while trimming the trees. I didn't even realize it, but by the time I was done, the young trees were pretty much just sticks.

When I wanted to get someone/something off my mind, I would go ride my motorcycle. Riding forces you to forget everything else. I focus so much on controlling the bike and it takes my attention off what I was thinking about and makes me think about the road. Worked really well for me.

Yeah, for me, I worked out a lot, focused more on school and hung out with my friends a lot more. I also got into cars and played video games more. Focusing on myself and what I wanted in life made me a much better person in the long run.

After a while, your anguish just disappears. And when you realize that, it's a wonderful feeling.

And it is an even better feeling after you have worked out and made yourself a better person, then the person that caused everything sees you and is jealous. Then you can act like you have completely moved on and just brush them off. That is the best part.

I love my toys/gagets. When I'm depressed or whatever, I buy myself something new, even if it's just a new Gamecube game or something, whatever takes my mind off of things. It's usually proportionate to how crappy I feel. When I broke up with my gf a week before our 3 year anniversary (when I was going to propose) back in October, I bought myself my tC.

tc4italy is on the money. In the end, all you're doing with yourself is passing time. But it's better to be passing time, bettering yourself than passing time doing nothing, making you more prone to thinking about it.

That's what I did.. Bought my tC and put all my time, energy, and money into her instead of the girl... When I compare one vs the other, I prefer my tC, thank you very much.
