mattguy Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I was with my ex for 7 months, it was the type of relationship where we were attached at the hip, never went to bed without each other, it was a bit obsessive I suppose... anyways its been 2 months and Ive been trying to see new people. The problem is, is that it just feels like these people are filling in for my ex. no matter that we are doing, cooking dinner, grocery shopping, movies ... it just makes me think of my ex and how we used to do these things together and how great it was. no one can really live up. Now that Im single again Ive got all these new options , but all these people are just... not my ex ... maybe I just answered my own question.... ](*,) Link to comment
TechResQ Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 sounds like you are still in love...any chance on a reconciliation??? Link to comment
TechResQ Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I just read your other post in another thread...guess there isn't any chance huh? I'm so sorry. But I do think keeping busy and casual dating to stay busy is a good idea. Keeps your mind occupied. Take care, God Bless... Link to comment
guynextdoor Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 If whatever you are doing with your dates reminds you of your ex then I think you haven't let go yet. They are more of a rebound for you. Link to comment

But that's why rejoining the human race helps. If all that you're doing is sitting around missing him, pining for him, waiting for him to somehow come back to you and confess how huge a mistake he made, you're going to be miserable for a very, very long time. He isn't coming back. He made his choice. I know it hurts, but he's not wrong for what he did. He was doing something for himself that made him happier. It wasn't right for him, so it can't be right for you. There's a great guy(s) out there who wants to learn all about you, and hold your hand at the movies, and throw snowballs at you on the way home. You just have to be out there and ready for him. Link to comment

This is a time where you should really be focusing on yourself. Take a cooking class, or spinning at the gym. Do things to invest in yourself and your long-term happiness. Being able to be happy and single means you'll be even that much more equipped to be coupled and happy. Link to comment

Sounds like you're on the right track, youngling. You should be proud of yourself for doing the right things. That's difficult in the best of times. Remember that pride. You'll need it out in the world. Link to comment
