The recently single thread
Discussion
Right then lads, having read and posted on the "Being told " I don't love you anymore" thread it would appear quite a few of us eligible PHers have recently been let off the leash and are experiencing freedom for the first time in months/years.
Spent the last week doing a bit of wallowing in it and generally boring my mates daft.
So to hell with the self pity, what have you lot been doing about it?
Managed to blag a drunked sympathy f
k off a drunken girl I met in a gay bar about 5 hours after being dropped (I was smashed but thank god on closer inspection she was indeed a girl - if little plain).
So unto this week and I went to meditation for the first time in ages which cleared my head no end. Gym today and now off to meet up with an old mate and generally talk to any easy on the eyes girl who comes into range.
Over to you lot!

I will struggle!
Met my wife at 16.
Obviously before that, never had to "shmooze" anyone. I always have flirted with birds, but now that I may have to, I can probably honestly say, I won't!
Also, the rejection, well, thats enough to put any fecker off!
I may become a Monk, albeit a Monk that drives an M3 and swears a lot.
Scrap that, gagging already.

I've found that going out with anyone immediately after a relationship has ended usually leads to a disaster.
I need a few months to get my head straight.
That said I'm not currently single and have been with the current one for 10 years, and the one before that for ten years, with a few dates in the six months I was single between them. However if long term monogamy isn't your goal then ignore me completely (I understand it's a niche interest for men, and not as popular as I thought it was for women either).

Ended In July, I won't go into detials but it ended very badly.
In the mean time i've put on 5KG of lean Muscle so that's good, I've just concentrated on training and getting HENCH!. I'm getting help to deal with the aftermath of it all, i'm still not over it but every day it gets a little bit better. Some days I have set backs, but that's life.
I went out on a date, but she was mental so i've decided to give it a miss for a bit.

That's the spirit. Having to force myself out of the house but luckily have some great friends who keep dragging me out and trying to take my mind off it all. Can help, though having to deal with it all and a hangover the next day doens't make it easier. Met my wife at 16.

Certainly not looking to go out with anyone for a while. As you say it takes months to really get back on track. I need a few months to get my head straight.
Probably not doing this right; just can't be sat around on my own thinking so it's working as a good distraction at the moment.
Oh God....
Is this where us single pringles have to deploy epic bantz in order that rugby shirted fatsos can slap us on the back and shout "LAD" whilst slopping lager all over the place? Errrm.... I'm unattached; with good reason I hasten to add. So on to my totes mantertaining (copyright MM 2014) tales of lone wolf-esque shagging birds and getting on the PINTS and what have you:
1) I went to a quiz with two friends
2) I have covered my desk at work with Christmas decorations
3) I'm going to go shopping tomorrow, then go out for some drinks - cocktails hopefully
4) I need a new hairdryer
Yes, being single is capital AWESOME

Not to worry, you're obviously a buuuurd, so will undoubtedly get shagged senseless by one of the PH man-gods, possibly one of those posting in the beyond-parody Porsche-film thread, before you know what's going on. 4) I need a new hairdryer

I think you're post succinctly describes everything that I find terrifying about being single.

I'm giving it a couple of weeks then back to Tinder; there's allot of mental out there I'm missing out on.
I'm recently single myself and I'm not in a rush to jump into another relationship anytime soon. I'm 28 years old and been in various long term relationships for the last 11 years, with not much single time in between. Obviously, if someone amazing appears tomorrow, then I'll change my perspective!
However in the short term, I bought myself an XBox One with a few games, which should pass the time when I'm not seeing friends ... I've also booked a hotel in Monaco for next June, whereby I'll be doing a road trip around France, Italy, Switzerland and Germany. I haven't booked anywhere else, as I fancy a bit of an adventure! I'm really looking forward to it!
I'm a little bit afraid of venturing into online dating again - It's a minefield!

I became single earlier this year after 20 years of marriage. As part of my wife's exit strategy, she farmed out our two teenage daughters by convincing one to study in Norway and by funding a flat for the other with her boyfriend. In the space of a few months we went from a family of four to just me in the house. Have to say I am not embracing this new single life at all. It seems everyone else is part of a couple.
Can't even get motivated to rejoin the gym. Bought a Boxster two weeks ago, in true mid life crisis mode. Not particularly interested in anyone else just want back what we had even though it will never happen. Can't live like this forever so hopefully there will be someone else, like everyone tells me. The scary thing is, not everyone does find someone?
Sorry if a bit negative.
