I was always a good girl. Almost 3 weeks ago I broke up with my first and only boyfriend, I didn't want to break up of course but we have to do it because of the distance.

 

And since then I admit that my behavior has been pathetic and easy.

 

I go to a lot of dates, I drink a lot, I send inappropriate photos and I though that I would never sleep around but I am doing it.

 

My ex doesn't speak so much to me. I initiate a conversation 3 days ago and it was nice but things got worse when he told me "You will find someone, you just have to keep looking" that made me feel awful.

 

Is normal and it will pass?

It's not unusual for people to go a little "wild" after a break-up, but 3 weeks is a pretty short time to be behaving drastically differently. Who are you sending these pics to, and who are you going on dates with? I understand people can meet others quickly through dating aps, for example, but I am curious to know how you've met so many new guys in the last 21 days.

 

Who broke up with whom? I sense that he ended it.

 

Your coping strategies aren't the healthiest. Engaging in behaviour that is otherwise unusual or risky for you isn't a positive way forward. Please be careful, especially when sending these inappropriate photos. You don't want them winding up in the wrong hands.

Usually is because I go out almost everyday or they are guys that I rejected before.

Normal to hope to get some comfort out of being that way? yes. Is it going to bring you happiness? no. All you are doing is getting quick fixes, but crashing like an addict.

 

Go find some positive things to do with your time, like help a friend redecorate, join a gym or volunteer for a charity, etc.
