you only miss him because you choose to, which means you can also choose to not miss him.
the way i see it, the only things that can help you are time, and people.
so go out there and meet new people and keep yourself occupied at all times
soon enough he'll b out the window
just wait it out, only thing that can heal you and i is time.
the more you try to find someone else to put your thoughts on,
the more you'll be reminded of her.
To be honest, what happened to you wasn't as bad as my scenario.
Just need to go out more and occupy yourself more, then in due time...
guys love it because it's at that moment, that the guy can prove to that special girl that he'll be here for her when she needed.
in the end, i guess yes, it makes us feel like a real man, but i don't see a problem in that..
ever thought that maybe she needs to have some space or time alone?
people need personal space when they feel uncomfortable, especially girls.
or maybe that is the reason because your 'too pushy' as girls would describe it, making her feel 'insecure' as again, girls would describe it as.
Edit...
promise ring? no
but i do have couples ring with my girlfriend =)
forgot to add in: we wear it everyday but when we fight, we take it off and don't wear it till we get over it or forgives the other person, its pretty silly but it works well, I always put mine back on like half an hour later...
Direct Approach is the only solution.
Going through her stuff? been there done that was stupid.
Though i seriously think that you just thinking too much =)
unless you're boring.
