Please help I can't get over him

Lat month my boyfriend of almost a year and a half blindsided me by leaving me for another girl. Ever since then I have felt depressed almost all of the time and I just can't get over him. It doesn't help that he'll occasionally text me saying he wants to hook up and that he wants to be with me. I'm trying so hard to move on but I just can't. Please, please, please help me I hate feeling like this.

I know it's cliché to say this, but it seriously takes time to get over someone. Take it someone who know and is still trying to get away, do not hook up with him. It just makes it that much harder. Honestly, you need to tell him look if you don't want to be in a relationship with me, you can't hook up with me, it's not fair to play games. Look, I know it seems really hard right now, but it does get easier. I promise. I'm serious though, never hook up with someone because you think it will make them want you back, all that does is make them have an advantage over you.

LIPSOFANANGEL is right. Do not under any circumstances hook up with him. You will do so much more damage to yourself and set your healing process way behind. I know you are terrified and hurting and confused. I know the pain feels overwhelming. But trust me, as someone who has been through it, and thought I wouldn't make it, you will be ok. You will be better than ok actually, you will be great. First of all, you have to realize that you deserve better. You deserve someone who is going to stick by you and love you and not toss you aside for another girl. And that person is out there. You wouldn't be happy with your bf. He betrayed you. The damage is already done. You can't have a healthy relationship there now. So pick yourself up (or just crawl away) and let him go. No contact with him at all. It will help you in the long run. Focus on you. Take this opportunity to use the pain you're feeling to redirect your attention to your life and your goals. Discover who you want to be. Make a few mistakes, discover new places and things, be adventurous. It will pay off a hundred times over and make you so much more confident and independent. And when you finally do decide to date again (you should try and stay single for a few months minimum) you'll be healthier, happier and that will result in a healthier relationship. I know this is big talk and it seems impossible that you will get through it or be happy that it happened someday. I thought the same thing. But you will. I PROMISE. It just takes time. Don't rush it. Focus on one day at a time. Let the time heal you and change you and learn the important lessons that you need to in order to become a better person. This will end up being a good thing for you! You wouldn't want to get stuck with a jerk like that anyway!! You can do it :) I'm living proof!
