A few steps back

[Funny bunny]

So the ex and I split 2.5 months ago and I've been NC for a month with great progress however my friend set up a tinder account for me and at first I thought it could be fun to check guys out but then I thought why not meet up and have a fun night out? So a guy whom I was very attracted to from the get go set up a date with me for today and even got my number. I didn't hear from him yesterday and so today I was like "are we still on for tonight?" And he suddenly blocked me and all. Honestly who cares about him but I just opened a little scar to the rejection I faced from my breakup two months ago where I was the dumpee. Maybe it's not so easy after all to just have a fun hangout? Anyway after the blocking I started feeling anxious and cried for the first time in a week and thought about the ex. Damnit! I set up a trap for myself :/

Sorry to hear that. It's entirely on him for not even trying. Dating is really hard even when you're completely over the last one. Don't be hard on yourself for trying to put yourself out there. Sooner or later you have to test the waters. And now you know that maybe it's too soon. But you'll get there!

[Funny bunny]

That's true. I've realized I have to have thick skin for dating in general. Some may like me while others may not. I've been so sad all day. The ex doesn't want to try and work through it so I must step on.

At least you've realised that it's too soon for you. There's no rush, just carry on with your life and continue healing. Dating will happen when it's meant to happen, you'll know when it feels right

I think it might be just a bit too soon. Maybe try to rest up n heal for a bit

[Seth0194]

As some have said, its too soon. Take some time, invest in yourself. Hit the gym, take a class, find a good book and a peaceful spot to read. Love being in your own company, do not give others the key to your happiness.

 

Best of luck.

My advice would be not to date just yet til u let ureself heal a little more it's still raw and wen things don't go ur wat erhh ye this happens. Plus it can mask the wounds from the pain caused by the breakup sure it's a boost but it's a smoke screen for healing. Happiness comes from within not from a person

Listen, go out and buy a long and sturdy stick.

Because in a short while, you will need it to beat off the guys.

Smart and emotional Women don't stay single long.

 

 

Its something you should be proud off.

The fact you feel pain, is that you have a heart, and next time, you'll be a little smarter in whom you give it to next.

You have tons of time to look for someone.

For now, go do your nails, hair, and a nice dinner with your girlfriends.

Just have that stick with you at all times.

Funny Bunny, if you get involved in dating and meeting guys online, you will come across your fair share of no-goods who do not know how to behave. Unfortunately, your first arrangements was with one of them. He just has no manners and was probably flirting with many girls. He could have even had a girlfriend already who saw what he was up to and insisted he block everyone he was in touch with. Sorry you came across someone unreliable.

 

It is no reflection on you whatsoever. These idiots are everywhere online. The next guy you are in touch with could be just the opposite and too much for you as well. Eventually, you will find a good connection which is mutual and where both of you are on the same page with respect to communication and meeting up. Just don't take the stupid flakes seriously.
