wierdmunky Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 So, I've had a relationship that lasted 7 years, ended in a broken engagement, and the ex with another girl within one week of the breakup (which I think he is still with). This was 2 1/2 yrs ago, and I'm over him! There was so much I had put up with, that I thought was just normal relationship probs, and the more and more guys I meet, the more I realize how much of a tool my ex was. I dated another guy for a year after that but it didn't work out, and it wasn't a bad breakup. That was in April. I ran into an old hs friend who I was really close to back then, and he just told he, he wants to date! The thing is, after the 7 yr relationship, I've mad major major anxiety with dating. My mind gets cluttered with every worry about being a good enough girlfriend so things don't end bad. I feel like I'm screwed, and I want to feel normal about dating again. I wish I could rewind time and not have gone out with 7yr guy for that long. I wish I was smart enough to see that what I felt was right at that time. I really really want to date again, but I can't seem to get over this hump. I'm not sure what a normal healthy bf/ gf relationship consists of. It seems like everyone I know has problems, and I am so confused. Everyone always says things are never perfect, there are ups and downs, but what range? I'm not sure where I draw the line and say things are not ok, or not fun. Plus I'm sensitive. How do you let go of past relationship issues that are at the back of your mind? It's like a bad memory that gives you bad feelings.
