How do I stop thinking about my ex?
She broke up with almost 2 weeks ago and everyday, no matter what I do, she always crosses my mind.
I'm in college without many friends or reasons to get out of my dorm other than class or the gym so I have way too much time to myself.
I torture myself by looking at her social media and seeing that she's unaffected by the break up.
I know I'd go back to her in a heartbeat but I also know she won't come back.
I've tried talking to her but she refuses to respond.
What do?

Out of sight, out of mind.
Firstly stop with the social media shit gay and paints a false picture of people's lives. Second get a hobby or pursue a hobby/passion you stopped doing.
I was in the same bout about 6 months ago. Only recovered recently. Try hitting up other girls. Time heals all wounds.
Stay strong bro

I never really had any hobbies. Before college, being alone didn't really affect me too much but now seeing everyone else having fun and being happy brings me down. I've looked at all the clubs that my uni offers and none of them interest me.

I don't have any way of meeting new people, let alone other girls. Even if I did, I'm too socially awkward and anxious to talk to them. And I always feel like I'm bothering people when I try to talk to the few people I do know.

Advice that will actually help you, in order of importance:
1) CUT ALL SOCIAL MEDIA CONTACT
2) CONCIOUSLY STOP YOURSELF FROM LOOKING AT HER SOCIAL MEDIA
3) GET OUT AND DO THINGS
4) WORK OUT
I cannot stress how important it is to cut social media contact, it's a test of your mental fortitude but it's the single most deciding factor. I believe in you OP my friend I too was in your situation three months ago, a broken husk of a man. Now I can't BELIEVE how good my life is when I forced myself to get over it and improve myself.

you just wait. It gets better.
BLOCK her on ALL social media. You're torturing yourself dude. It's only 2 weeks, you're gonna keep thinking about her its inevitable. Give it time. Make an effort to talk to people, most of the time you'll be glad you did unless you're edgy. Getting to know people is pretty cool sometimes man. Go for walks by yourself, maybe even an art museum by yourself. Its calming to do shit alone, i mean you have to get used to it right? You''re single now. Learn to be happy on your own buddy.
I relate to almost every word in this thread except we weren't even in a relationship in the first place.

Been really close friends on and off for the past three years. We texted all the time but a few weeks ago I saw her for the first time in half a year. It went really well but I was depressed for the following few days, I don't even remember why, and it ended in her blocking me.
You'll be alright, I will too.
