How to get over an amicable breakup?

I've recently ended a 4 year relationship with my girlfriend. We both decided to discontinue our relationship due to our different religious backgrounds. I'm a Muslim and she's a Buddhist. Another reason was that we both love our parents so much that we do not want to 'run away' and migrate somewhere together without their knowledge. She does not want to convert for fear of losing her family nor do I try to ask her to convert. I've always stressed that you need to believe Islam is the right one for you, not because of marriage. I've never forced her and gave her that freedom to choose and decide herself. I respected her decision and totally understood where she was coming from.





We had come to a point in our relationship where we understand each other so well and we normally forget what we argued about in the first place. We loved each other dearly and I thought she was the one. We had fun right to the day when we decided we talk about the religion card.





We both felt that we will just be dragging it and things will never get resolved if we go on without any 'closure'. On goes the series of endless crying and hugging , each of us not wanting to let each other go.





We promised ourselves to be stronger for each other and decided to end it and not see each other for a few months. This has only been a month but I am going nuts and could not stop thinking about her.





I've read a lot about how to cope if the breakup originated from a fight , but what happens if it was amicable with no animosities at all?





I'd like to know an outsider's perspective on this.





Thanking you all in advanced.How to get over an amicable breakup?
Look sounded like you all would be great for eachother except for the different religions! this is a path that will take time to heal! I don't know muslim religion but take time to listen to some peaceful music and meditate, clear your mind and ask yourself '; do you both love eachother enough to change for eachother? Cuz a little hint in true love!!!! If you both love eachother as much as you said it shouldn't matter what anyone tells you not even your parents or friends should be able to change your feeling! They will have to understand that TRUE LOVE is HARD to FIND and you found yours if you truly believe in eachother!
