Well, I wasn't in love with the girl, but she was my best friend and we were very close. When things started to go sour (for a couple different reasons I'll spare you) I had to take pretty drastic measures to get over my dependancy on her. I was accepted to University out of province and when things got to their worst I used it as another reason to pick up and go.

I left for school and decided to take the seperation a step further. I totally cut her out of my life. No emails, no phone calls, no nothing. I took it as an opportunity to make new friends and experience new things. I ended up making a ton of friends at school and having a blast with them. The next summer I made up with the girl and now we're friends, without the problems from the first time around. Obviously it's not the same, but that's a good thing because it was a dead end situation that needed to change.

You seem in a worse spot than I was. I think, if you truly want a drastic change to get over her you're going to have to take drastic measures. This might mean some time apart so you can force yourself to move on. Good Luck.
