davisc123 Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 So I am moving on from a LTR, its been a couple of months now. I'm feeling quite a bit better about everything although I still have my moments when I get quite down and feel a bit lost. But generally I'm happier and am not missing the stress at the end of the relationship. One of my main problems is the fact that all of my friends are involved with girls just now, so I'm finding it hard to get back out there and meet new people. Its not as if I'm sitting about brooding I have been getting up to stuff its just not been the same. When I sarted seeing my ex I was still a teenager and used to have a packed social life and a lot of female contacts (mostly just friends), but I seem to have become detached from females in the last few years apart from my ex's friends and a few workmates. Any ideas, anybody had a similar experience?

There is probably an empty space where she once stood. Some choose to fill it with booze, some choose to fill it with another person, some choose to fill it with religion. I suggest you fill it with yourself. You're probably not ready yet to move on. Work on yourself, exercise, lose some weight if that's an issue, laugh with friends and exercise some more. To that end google paleo nutrition and learn about a new healthy lifestyle. Fill that void with self-love, love yourself so you are whole and can fully love another without the expectation that they will fill the void. That's the healthy way forward. Good luck.
BiAxident Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 "Guys Night Out" aside, I'm not sure that all of your male friends being romantically involved right now is a bad thing. Afterall, that is just more women who you can be introduced to, who can in turn introduce you to their friends. My situation is the exact opposite; most of my male friends are single and either have given up on relationships all-together, or are simply out to screw whatever will have sex with them. I wish I had your problem!
