How long has it been since you stopped dating?
It usually takes a long time to forget a person you really loved.
I even texted my ex last week and we broke up almost 3 years ago lol. Anyway, I was drunk and my message wasn't such a big deal. Just "Hey, how are you? Long time no see."
I'm 33 and the only thing I have that you don't is a job, which I think it is the easiest thing to get as long as you find motivation first so, you will get it someday if you really look for it.
As for love, well, it might be part of our lives again when we least expect it but what I'm sure of is that if we don't try to meet and date new people, nobody will knock our doors saying they love us.
The only thing I know is that people get over people some day. It could be weeks, months, years but someday that day comes.
