Mckarsafra Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 This girl I've been dating and slept with a few times informed me that's she's started seeing someone else. I sent her a text asking if she wanted to get together again and that's when she told me. I told her that hurts me, I'm better off without her and blocked her number. I'm not crying about it, but I do find myself thinking it's just not worth it to ever pursue or date another girl. Will my feelings change, or is this a normal reaction to something like this? Where should I go from here? Link to post Share on other sites
d0nnivain Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Right now you are in the acute stages. It just happened so the pain is fresh. In time it will subside but it is absolutely worth it to date other people going forward. Hang in there but give yourself some time. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Wewon Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Your reactions are normal, that's a heavy blow and can be confusing. You will get past the feelings you have now, but I would strongly suggest that you accept, at least for a while, that your feelings and attitude about her, dating and women in general will not be in the best place. A lot of people either go into denial about this in the name of being mature or take ugly feelings as a sign of permanent damage instead of a passing phase. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
still_an_Angel Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Give it a rest and try again. We all have crosses to bear, its part of living, you can't appreciate the good times without the bad (they go hand in hand). You're in a slump now but the wheel turns all the time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Author Mckarsafra Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 I feel numb and empty about this, not angry or sad. It just seems dating in general hasn't added much joy to my life, and this was the exclamation mark. I can't see myself coming back to dating. I want to look for something else in this life that's enjoyable and doesn't involve love. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Maggie4 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Are you dating to find a partner, get married and start a family, or are you dating for fun times and to not be alone? Both are fine. Just wondering where you are in life. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Mckarsafra Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) Are you dating to find a partner, get married and start a family, or are you dating for fun times and to not be alone? I've been dating to find a long term partner so I won't be bored and lonely. I've never wanted to get married and start a family.

Well, some girls eventually will want to get married. If there's incompatibility in what people are looking for, then either she dumps you or you her. It's for the best. Don't feel too bad. Hey look on the bright side, you're single, you can date around. Link to post Share on other sites

I know, I'd like a relationship, but I don't want to get married or have kids. It's hard to find a woman wanting the same. Link to post Share on other sites
loveiswar101 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 It's all roundabout and swings, i look back and to my ex of 3 years, never thought I'd move on. But I have, you will. Now just got to get over the latest one I like now, been friend-zoned. But seriously everyone will say and have to agree, got to kiss lot of frogs to fine the Prince/Princess.

candie13 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 first thing's first. Get mad. Really ! Get really mad ! It'll do you good & you'll get out of this state of self pity & mélancholia. Go for a run or kick the boxing sack, to begin with Link to post Share on other sites
