I know how you feel. It's hard and it hurts. That feeling you get knowing they don't feel the same way. But it's time to move on honey. You can do it. When you're over them it'll open you up to so many new people.
Focus on why it ended. When you are in love, you only see the good side of a person. Now that you guys are separate you can focus on his/her negatives. And you will realize that there is a reason it didnt work out and you are better off without them.
