As I am now single..........

Hi all,

Don't know whether this is allowed but it seems as good a place as any.

Now that I have accepted my break up with my ex gf and am looking to move on to pastures new with a new partner.

I hate being single and it's only been 3 months. Too much time on my own, can't take it.

Stew

Before i start dating...

My ex is now with someone else and it hurts. She started dating him a week after she ended it with me and regardless if it is a rebound thing for her or not it's something i have to live with and move on, and because of this my mind set is one of trying to prove to myself "I can live without her".

However i feel VERY lonely sometimes. There are days when my friends invite me out to do some stuff and it always seems to be able to help me get my mind off of things. The thing is i'd REALLY love to have someone with me to make me feel the way my ex did once upon a time ago but i know my heart won't truly be into it since i haven't fully "moved on" yet. I still think of her and wonder what she's doing and if she still misses me at all. I don't think i'm ready to start dating someone until i completely feel independent again without still wanting her back.

Right now this is the mountain i feel i am climbing. I've finally gotten past the "OH MY GOD I NEED HER BACK" stage which has been killing me for weeks now. Right now i'm able to go on and do the things i want to without being consumed by thoughts of her (despite the fact i do miss her so).

My advice is that maybe until you are 100% sure you are over her enough to start dating someone else you should keep it cool for now. It's only going to end up confusing and possibly hurting that other person in the long run.

Your Right!

You are right RogueK. I am still messed up really. To be honest I don't know what I want or what to do. I would love my ex to come back to me. But I am lonely on my own. Don't get me wrong, I go out with my friends and everything. In fact there partners come out as well. We all have a right laugh together. But then I go home on my own and I am just not used to it yet

Anyway you know how I am feeling mate from our PM's and your situation being so so similar. I just wish I could win her back!!

Please forget my last post everybody as I am damaged goods anyway And cheers ROgueK for stoping me from making a stupid mistake.

Speak to you soon with any updates

Stew

Ways to keep your mind busy and find purpose...

I'm gearing up for several 5K races, running. I hope to build up to 10K runs soon.

I'm starting yoga classes again.

I've taken a stained glass course, and waiting on the advanced class to begin.

Make some new goals. You'll keep busy, think less about relationships (for now), and look better, and certainly feel better.

What do you guys want to do? Just do it!
