Hey, I have been going out with my girlfriend, sam, for 4 months and 8 days till yesterday she said we needed to talk, I thought sure what’s on your mind, and she explained to me that she doesn't want to be with me anymore but just wants to be my friend, so I was "downgraded to her best friend" it really sucks I thought I had something special with her, I love sam with all my heart, I thought we would grow old together, even though I am only young, (i’m 17. 18 in april) .. She wants me to experience other relationships as she was my first real girlfriend; she was my first in the sexual department, and the first to break my heart.
I don’t know what to do imp so confused, she goes to school. Sixth form with me and its hard to ignore her to get over her that way, so I have decided to become friends with her, she also told me that she is breaking up with me because she likes someone else, this is a guy in her year, (year below.) he is really cool, a real nice guy. I really like him and he is my friend, and yesterday before she broke up with me, she kissed him,
but he pulled away, I talked to him about this today and I told him I respected him for it, I also asked him about his feelings for sam, and he told me he loves her, its going to be really hard if they get together as they will be in the commen room together and I will just be sitting there like a lemon, I don’t know what to do, it will break my heart even more, how can I find someone else when I feel like this? I love sam with all my heart I just want her back in my life, please help!

Thanks
