jenjen83 Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 After having a bad week last week I have had a great one this week. Went for coffee with a guy yesterday and we are going out for a drink tonight. I'm gonna take things slow and not build up my hopes but I finally (after 4 months) feel that I am at peace with my last break-up.
TheDovic Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Good for you Jenjen and best of luck with the new man
Author jenjen83 Posted September 26, 2011 Author Posted September 26, 2011 Thank you TheDovic. It turned out he was only interested in what's in my knickers and was a bad kisser (my ex was a good one) but I still feel positive. Mine and my ex's ''song'' just came up on my playlist and I listened to it for the first time we since we broke up and I felt a slight pang of sadness but that was it.
Buttercup84 Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 I'm sorry , what a jerk . Glad you're ok though . I had two ****ty dates , hope we have better ones soon
Author jenjen83 Posted September 29, 2011 Author Posted September 29, 2011 Just to bump to say I had another unsuccessful date. On the upside it's all a learning curve.
geegirl Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 As my mom always said, " You have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find him." Besides, every failed date is getting you closer and closer to the one! Keep going. Dating is a pain but you'll never be able to meet someone if you don't put yourself out there. You have an optimistic attitude so that's half the battle won!
Author jenjen83 Posted September 29, 2011 Author Posted September 29, 2011 Haha my mum says the exact same thing about the frogs geegirl.

geegirl Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 I would have been lucky if I came across them frogs. All I got were toads, warts and all! But it got me somewhere! So keep going. I felt the same way you did. It will happen, and when you least expect it

geegirl Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 (edited) That came out wrong! I didn't mean literally getting warts! Let's stick to frogs...yes, universal in the dating world! Edited September 30, 2011 by geegirl

eleanorhurting Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 I dont find myself remotely attracted or interested in anyone that asksme out
TheDovic Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 I dont find myself remotely attracted or interested in anyone that asksme out Yeh me neither!!! Really lookin forward to that lovely warm feeling again though PS, did you notice your ex becoming like 100 times hotter since they left you? I hate that!!!
geegirl Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 I dont find myself remotely attracted or interested in anyone that asksme out It's normal Eleanor. You're comparing men to your ex and no one comes close so you have no attraction. You're still emotionally attached and when you are, you have no interest in anyone else, let alone allow your heart and mind to see potential in others. In time, as you slowly detach, you'll start to notice men around you. I was in the same boat. No one compared. I felt that my heart was always going to be hostage. But I remember one day going to lunch with a friend and this guy was flirting with me in the elevator and I had a smile on my face and my friend said, "You're blushing!". That's when I knew I was letting him go. It will take time. It will not always be this way. I promise you.
eleanorhurting Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Youre right if you would have told me 10 months ago that I would be hung on on someone else other than my ex now I would have never guessed it.
