The Other One That's On My Mind

Ok I broke up with my ex like 8 months ago.  Actually we never actually broke up we just stopped talking completely which sums up to breaking up.  And still I am "Officially Missing You".  Everyday something brings him to the forefront of my mind and it drives me nuts.  I am so trying to get past him but for some reason I can't.  Thank goodness I don't actually ever have to see him but his presence is felt daily.  There are no pictures or gifts to remind me of him, just some random thing.  A candy bar, someone driving a truck like his and saying my sons name which is he same as his (no he's not my kids dad). 

QUESTION: How Do You Ever Truly Get Over Someone?  Is It Even Possible?
