sanne Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 Well I'm definitely happy to say I'm finally over my ex and closed that chapter of my life. Now, I'm kind of stuck in this state of figuring out how to move forward from here. I go out with friends and try and have as good a time as I can, but I still can't help but feel that something is missing sometimes. I don't know if this means I'm ready to start dating again, but I do miss having someone in my life. It's very easy for me to mistake my being lonely for wanting to have my ex back, I don't want my ex back I just want to have someone there for me I guess. It can get overwhelming thinking about ever finding someone again, I mean I know I will at some point but I still get down about that sometimes.
JS17 Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 It's good to hear that you're really starting to move on Sanne. I think everything you're feeling is normal. It is very overwhelming thinking about starting over. It's great that you're able to differentiate wanting someone with wanting her. Of course it's normal to be lonely and I think it's a great time for you to start dating again. Take it easy, be casual and try not to think so hard about "starting over"....I know it's not easy to do but do your best. I'm struggling with all of the same things so I know it's tough.
Author sanne Posted October 9, 2005 Author Posted October 9, 2005 thanks JS, i was feeling fine actually until this girl i was hanging out with told me straight up that she didn't think us hooking up would be a good idea, "that would be a treacherous path" were her exact words. ever since then i've just been feeling down and unsure of myself. it seems like when i used to get down and lonely i looked to my ex for comfort and reassurance, but i can't do that anymore.
