He even has a new girlfriend now. Seeing all this is making me wallow in self-pity. After all, I loved him but my parents were totally against our relationship. Ever since our break up, I’ve lost confidence in myself. I’ve started hating myself and that guy walks around as if nothing happened. As a result, I’ve become more and more shy. I even refrain from talking to people. Help.
