Answer
Hi, Kevin. You don't need closure. You need to do two things:  
1. Stop harboring hope and drowning yourself in wonderful memories of how great of a time you had before. It happened and it's over! It was one stage in your life. Now, it's time to move on without looking back.

2. Perceive this experience of breaking up as a POSITIVE ONE. This is an opportunity for you to learn how to deal with break ups, to think about what you did right and wrong in a relationship and also pursue all the other women that are now available to you.  

I believe that everything happens for a reason. It's very likely that a more special woman is heading in your direction. You just need to be ready for her and know how to get her when she comes around.

Thanks, and I hope this helps. If not, please follow up. And if you found my answer helpful, please rate me on this site and comment on my work.
