Single again after 2 years...
| Wed, 02-22-2006 - 8:43pm |
I'm new to this board--I just got dumped. I was with this guy for 2 years, living together for one. We had plans to marry, etc. So of course I'm completely heart broken. I never knew our relationship had problems, because well, it didn't. His ex moved back to town a month ago and he saw her a few times. He "realized" that he had feelings for us both. And since that's not okay, we broke up. I thought he was "the one"--I really did. So I guess I'm here for a shoulder to lean on. I need ideas to slowly get back into the single scene again. I guess I just need some single gal pals right now! ;)

Welcome, Danielle!
I'm sorry to hear about your break up.
Ditto to what shy said.
Breaking up is painful, especially when it's a surprise (I've been there - ended a 5 year relationship last year). You have to let yourself go through the full grief process and feel the pain to get through it.
Then, fill your life with the things you love to do and the people who support you.
Feel free to vent away to us as well - we will always listen, and help when we can.
HUGS!!
AJ, enjoying life with C.
*hugs* Its hard when you first break up. But it gets better (hey even I survived the big V day single!). I agree with everyone else. Do stuff for yourself. Wether its buying those shoes you've been eyeing or joining a yoga class, do something that makes you feel good.
When my ex and I broke up I cut and colored my hair, bought some new clothes, got some long needed upgrades to my now kick-ass pc (Im a tech junkie...I admit it), and started back into yoga and horseback riding. Now all this wasn't at once, but over a period of a few months..but it gives you some ideas.
Feel free to vent anytime, we're here!
