How do you make closure on or get back with your ex when the state put a restraining order between you both?

Answer

It sounds like perhaps the other person could be a minor. If so, it's to your best interest to wait until this person is of age and then they can make their own decisions. If there are other reasons why the restraining order is in place you would be breaking the law by going anywhere near that person and their family and you could go to jail.

You are either going to have to wait until this person is of age, or if there is another reason then move on. I know it's painful, but take refuge in the thought that many of us have gone through heartbreak and time is the healer. The more we can't have something the more we want it, and if we are lucky enough to get it we usually don't want it as much as we thought we did. Our minds build up the event of what we want and distort it and it almost becomes an obsession. It's time to move on and perhaps, with luck, both of you will get back together in the future.
