Coming from someone who has experienced heartbreak in a similar fashion (10 months instead of 9), I know how devestating it can be. The bottom line is that there isn't a magic potion that can instantly make you feel better (wrong web site to say that) and the only cure is time.

The best thing you can do if you feel that any chance with this girl is lost is to spend quality time with your good friends (if they are really good friends they will find ways to make you feel better).

Another effective way to reduce the time it takes to get over a person is to delete any phone numbers, email addresses, or anything that connects you to them. Yes, that means no looking at her myspace pictures at 4 in the morning because you are too depressed to sleep.

Anyways, I may sound like a jerk but the truth is that there isn't a whole lot to do. Just remember that in almost every relationship each person feels that they have truly found someone special, and a little while after the breakup they almost always realize that they were not meant to be together anyways.

Good luck, and sorry if I made things worse. I was initially trying to help.

One more thing: Make a list of all the things in life that you are grateful for and it may potentially help you realize that you are lucky just to be here.
