What is the best way of getting over someone?

Hi,
Am new here and having a tough time at the moment. My boyfriend (now my ex) split up with me last week. We had been together for about 2 months and it was a complete shock. I'm trying my best to move on but I can't help but miss him. He has chosen to have no contact with me so it's not like I can even speak to him anymore.
What is the best way of dealing with this and trying to move on? I've seen friends and spent time with the family but still can't get the feeling to go.
Even though we were only together for a little amount of time we were very very close and I could see myself with him for a long long time.
Is it wise to go out looking for someone? I'm not looking to hurt anyone because I know how it feels but at the same time I don't want to be alone. I miss hugs! :no:

Try 18 months, then I'll cry you a river.
I was with my ex for 5 years when she left me for another guy, and now I'm fine, have got on with my life and have started dating again. I feel great, so if I can do it so can you.
Use your friends, talk to them, go out with them, enjoy being single (not haivng to worry about telling someone where you're going or who you're with). Spend time with your family, spend time on relationships that may have suffered in the past (with friends and family). And treat yourself, go to nice places, buy nice things (clothes etc.) and pamper yourself.
In general, just enjoy what you've got.
