"Having your guy friends tell you that yea, he’ll get over you in two weeks" . It's so insensitive and it's like, " gee thanks for kicking me while I'm down." But I think when you aren't in that super sensitive stage anymore, it might actually be something worth thinking about if you can manage to not take it personally.
What your guy friends said is very along the lines of, "he's just not that into you." And ok, with a strong confidence and self-esteem, a guy should not define you. I'm a pretty sensitive person, so it's hard for that not to shake me. But, think about it, aren't there guys out there you think are wonderful but you just aren't into them? And it's not really them or you, but at the same time it is? It's not really personal but it kind of is? I guess it just means even if there is nothing wrong with someone, or even if that person is really cool, there is still a way for not everyone, or someone, to not really be into that person. And in turn, that makes it easy to get over them at a quicker speed than it would to get over someone who you were in a really deep and long relationship with (totally different discussion).
So in the dating world, if it is true that someone can get over someone else in two weeks, then yes, huge bummer. But I guess that's also , in a way, understandable and possible to accept. It's not fun to talk about, but you know, that theory goes both ways. And if he can't get over you and realizes he was actually really into you? People make mistakes but as you said, sometimes we gotta let go to make things stronger.
