My girlfriend of nearly 5 years broke up with me about a month ago somewhat out of the blue and I was/am devastated.

Try talking to them one-on-one telling them that 'I know you want me to be over this girl (insert name), however, it's normal to grieve at the end of a relationship. While I appreciate your 'good intentions' to set me up within someone else, know that this would be very unfair to anyone you set me up with as they should not be subjected to my depression/moodiness (fill in the blank), so I'm asking as for it to please stop.
