You want her to pay more attention to you and forget him quickly.

My advice is to discuss (not argue) this with her and find out what her suggestions are.

My suggestion is to improve yourself so she finds you more attractive than her EX. Self-improvement will not only improve her opinion of you, but more importantly will improve your opinion of yourself. And that is vital in anyone's life.

Improve yourself:

*Physically: work out, get a tan (if you are white), groom yourself well (hair, shoes, dress, etc), take care of hygiene (bathe, teeth, nails)

*Psychologically: the list is endless-- good sense of humor, kindness, affection, good listener, fairness, moderate, argue fairly, etc.

*Socially: have good friends, join activities, get along with your parents, take an interest in her friends.

*Intellectually: keep up on the news, get good grades, read a book.

Take one from each topic and work on it immediately so she can see a change. Then slowly add new things.

Everyone should be interested in self-improvement so don't think of it as "not being yourself."

Good luck! George
