Hi guys

 

Just getting my feelings off my chest. Single for over 6 months now and feeling a bit lonely. I think it's because I went to a wedding yesterday and when the slow songs came on I walked away as everyone coupled up and I was the odd one out. So happy for my mate but very jealous of his happiness! Found myself wishin my ex gf was there to see me all suited and booted, and to have someone to hold and feel loved by! :-(

Been single for a year and some change now, and I know what you mean. Sometimes things get lonely. You can always mingle with, party with, and have fun with other single women but nothing really replaces a nice girlfriend. Especially when most people you know are in a relationship. What usually gets me through it is music, and looking at the costs of being in a relationship. You have to actually deal with them lol..whereas being single you just don't reply to texts/calls.

do you have many friends? how would you define your social life?

compete in any sports?

 

I got out of a LTR of 9 years and began casually dating in May, but I noticed my social life needed an overhaul - basically the number of women I had to chose from needed to increase and I needed a revise my "persona" to include more of the things that reflected who I was and also, what attracts women.

 

In my particular situation I came to the conclusion that my social life had to improve before my dating life would - which was very true in my case. I met people by going out a lot more, started competing in sports again and I host about 1 party/get-together at my place each month.

 

I suppose to each their own, but I opted to do this w/o using internet dating sites, for a few reasons. I figured those would always be there, but more importantly, I had to find out for sure whether or not I had the social chops to make new friends, meet new people and develop new relationships the old fashioned way.

 

I'm just one man, with one opinion, but I encourage you to pass on the dating sites temporarily until you've developed your social life/professional life to a point where you don't feel lonely as much, by yourself.

 

There really is a large difference between solitude and loneliness.
