Girl for hire

[asanch2011]

I've been separated from my girlfriend of 6 years for about 3 weeks now, still in that depressed stage since we were about to get married. Girl that I knew from years ago met me at a hotel, she tried to get intimate with me but it's not the same. I don't even picture myself doing what I did with this girl. Has anyone experienced the same? How do you cope?

Just about everyone has experienced something similar.

How do you cope? You just have to give it more time.

Im going through pretty much the same thing. Give yourself time. Accept that its gonna suck for a while and you wont feel yourself. Just do the best you can, try to be active, be with your friends, workout etc. just let your feelings happen, focus on you, and give it time. Keep battling, im right with you.

Its way too early, I've only just started feeling like I can see myself getting intimate with other girls and it's been nearly 3 months. You will heal in time even if it doesn't feel like it. I was with her for 8 years and was absolutely rock bottom numb for 2 months, didn't think it would get better. Eventually it does, don't rush your grieving process, don't rush sleeping with other people, there's plenty of time and you'll be yourself again soon. Just incase you arnt already, cut her out your life, block her on everything except maybe your phone just incase she has something important to say.

 

Do what you can to completely cut her out, and stop thinking about her. She's not your problem, you have no one to worry about but yourself, be selfish, be your own best friend, be self compassionate and you will be right as rain in no time. It might take months but you'll be stronger for it and have learnt a lot.

I'm not surprised things were different. What I am surprised about is you getting intimate 3 weeks after the break up. You need to give yourself some decent time to get over a 6 year relationship and get yourself in a more healthy head space before moving on to the next one (imo).
