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!

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.
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.

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.
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.

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....

hole too). You've now got a fair bit more experience with the fairer sex and are less likely to make the same mistakes. If you want to get confident with girls - it's like anything else - practice!
Still could always end in a firey ball of the MENTAL and disaster but that's always the risk!

No. you sound pretty normal to be fair. I must sound so childish.
When you've got real feelings it makes it a hell of allot harder. Thought I'd met 'the one' a couple of times (perfect woman for me and all that), has taken me a year or two to get over those in the past.
Thing is, another one always turns up and suddenly you realise that you had been wasting time worrying about the past.
Get out there, hit some bars, tinder, grab any single mates who are alright with women and try to move forwards.

Wife went away for 4/5 weeks over the summer. Took the two boys as well. Before that I was in a hotel for work living away and travelling on Mondays & Fridays for 3 mths.
I thought it would be great, with lots of running and gym however found it completely boring.
Its ok when you are in the 20's however I found that people are generally more settled at home with wife and kids.
As Chris Rock once said, you have two choices in life:
1) Single and lonely or
2) Married and bored
OP if you are so busy getting laid with all your mates in gay bars how come you are on here?
The point is that if I was OK I wouldn't be stumbling around a gay bar on a school night. I thought it would be great, with lots of running and gym however found it completely boring.

You're right - it's fine when you're in your twenties and I had allot of fun. That said I'm 34 and thought I'd met a girl I could settle down with. Won't lie, had a much nicer time watching crap TV with her and going to nice country pubs than running around town chasing skirt.
Now I've only got two choices:
A) Give up and meditate on how unfair life is and how I'll be forever single.
B) Sort my s
t out, hit the gym, get some new clothes and go out and meet as many smart, pretty and nice girls as possible.Had a bloody awfull few weeks of it, starting to sleep a bit better now and getting more than the 2-4 hours I was last week.

I know it really is the same old line blokes have uttered since the sun first shone upon the world, but she really is it, on any factor I can think of apart from ability in bed - pure assumption on my part given she's a Christian and a pastor's daughter, so probably valid - Ok, that is an important aspect, but it isn't like married men get much anyway, and I do want a marriage, I don't want to just be whacking it up some other whom I will forget in the morning, I want it to be meaningful...
Gagh.

You have a severe case of oneitis. Sorry to say it but "whacking it up some other whom I will forget in the morning" a few times will help. Sounds like the issue you had was having the confidence / sense of entitlement to just ask her out.

It's easy to say and to be honest I'm not having the best festive season. Not going to let this one take me down for a daft amount of time like relationships have in the past though.

Gym again tonight and sending out a few more Tinder messages too. How I'll explain the fact my flat is still full of my ex's stuff if a bridge I'll cross when I come to it

Slight edit to my post, I missed out the part about me getting blackout drunk the next weekend, the lads warning me to be careful and not let her fk me over again. I ended up going off a bit by text saying she'll probably find someone else anyway and she just closes off from me. This is waht I have gathered from waht she's told me. I have zero memory (round at a mates house party, got very messy!).
So after having a full mental breakdown, messing you around and hardly being sensitive to your feelings you get pissed and say a load of stuff you regret. Given the amount of bullsk me over again. I ended up going off a bit by text saying she'll probably find someone else anyway and she just closes off from me. This is waht I have gathered from waht she's told me. I have zero memory (round at a mates house party, got very messy!).t you've had to put up with, the least she could do is cut you a bit of slack. Lost the plot with my ex last week, thought I was handling things ok but finally snapped. Wasn't clever but you can't beat yourself up, you got angry and had a barny.
DottyMR2 said:
But yep, probably still am. If only I had the ability to read peoples minds it would make it a lot easier. 2 years of maybes, she tells me she thought I wasn't interested for a while so just tried to find someone to replace me. Back and forth like this until now.
Women seem to love the dish out the 'maybes' and if you do mess up the classic I got was 'I wasn't sure I wanted to break up with you until you did X'. Don't think they even mean to tear your guts out but they seem to have natural ability for it.Not all girls are like this and there are some decent ones out there. Neither of you were making each other happy and there is no way I'd want that amount of drama in my life.
Go find someone who makes your life easier not a living hell.
CBR JGWRR said:
I haven't actually blown it with this one (yet, that of course is what I fear will happen...) it was the other one I blew it with - she started off straight and using the name she was born with, by the end she I'm fairly sure was bi or lesbian, and had definitely changed her name.
Now, on top of said failure of manhood of turning a previously straight woman lesbian, I ended up in a very bad place as a pale, quivering wreck less than a tenth of the man I am today. I am on the way out of that, but I am still a work in progress.
Now, the current woman I'm sat at home hankering after, I asked her out on a date on Sunday, and she only said no because she was already in a relationship - she actually likes me, and said if she was single it would have been a yes. She isn't single of course, so unless they split...
Now, I do not want to split her and her current squeeze up - that just isn't right - but, what do I do? Obviously, I need to MTFU. But I am working on that bit.

Hope your endeavours go well of course, goes for us all. Christmas/Winter is a very hard time of year, I know that far too well...

I once managed to turn a lesbian; though it only took a number of weeks for me to turn her back and swear to never sleep with another man ever again
Cheers fella, yea - Christmas and New Year really does suck when you're single. Was really looking forward to spending it with my ex. Still, women get it even worse and it's probably the easiest time of year to pull.
Onwards and upwards!
DottyMR2 said:
Thanks CountZero, you're right cutting me some slack would have been the thing to do, espeically if she actually wanted to make it work.
We were happy together with nothing wrong with the realtionship, all signs pointy to going to go far then overnight, after some big massive love message etc. I got ditched at the airport when we were meant to be going away for my birthday for the weekend. I still get really nervous when going away with people to this day.
She does just seem to have a talent for crushing me. Cutting contact might be the best thing, this wierd sort of friends thing we have but any time we are both single we meet up probably isn't healthy. That's a hard thing though, bringing myself to cut contact.
At least 1 plus point, I don't have any crippling fear of talking to people. I nearly got out last year after she screamed at me I only wanted sex and she hated me, that made it easier with a bit of anger there. A few one nighters and I was getting there. Then just when I thought I was out, she pulled me back in! This year I've gone backwards but I suppose I just have to accept she doesn't want me, doesn't appreicate me so I should find someone who does. Gave it a try, hopefully someone else out there will appreicate me.

Totally messed up about my ex, she's finally leaving today after 3 weeks of living togther post split. First time in 5 months I'll be coming back to an empty house. Feel like doing anything to have her stay or get her back but from painful experience unless it's some drunken row - when you finish with some one - never go back. All the same issues will be there with a whole lot less trust.
I have a 6 month rule with ex's where I won't meet up with them. Gives you a good amount of time to get over your feelings for them and you'll probably be worried about the next relationship you've been pulled into.
You need to break off ALL contact until you can move on. Breaking up is painful but dragging it out over years and still having all these feelings is just going to f
k your head up. She has a serious case of the MENTAL and now is the time to cut her out.
Lot's of other awesome girls out there. Doesn't feel like that after a breakup and I don't feel like that at all right now, but I know it's true!!
DottyMR2 said:
Feel for you mate, can't imagine what it's like with the extra factor of living together to deal with. How did it go yesterday?
Not a drunken row as such, just a freak out but it had been building up and she had a total break down, she was going to be sectioned etc. Best to just not think about it all. The trust thing is probably the problem, not something that couldn't be overcome like cheating but it would take work.
You've got a wiser head on your shoulders than me. Hope everything goes well for you, as you say, other women out there!

Last few weeks have been the hardest I've had to go through in a long time, coming back to a house with her in it just reminded me of what I was losing.
She had left when I got back last night, she sent a sweet text saying how it had been a great 5 months living with me and how she would miss it all. Sent a nice one back along the same lines.
Was really odd, totally empty house - would usually come back to a smile a hug and some banter about who was going to do the cooking. Just boxes of her stuff stacked up for when she finds a permanent place to live.
Hit the gym and sent out a few half arsed messages on Tinder but my heart is so not in it right now. Ended up having a bit of a flirt with a cute personal trainer who was on reception at the gym which cheered me up
Going to take a few weeks / months to adjust back to single life and things still really suck right now. DottyMR2 said:
Cutting off is hard if she contacts me, she'll probably do that less and less as time goes on which will make it easier.
Stop putting the ball in her court; you need to take back control of your life. If she knows she can behave badly and just call you up and you'll come running back then she has 0 respect for you and this must be killing your self-esteem too. It always takes a battering after a breakup but stretching it out like this is just going to mess your views of women up.Know plenty of guys who have had a bad experience with some MENTAL case and then end up bitter misogynists who can't trust any women (same thing happens with girls too). Don't let her mess you up.
The one thing that's been getting me through this that I always had doubts if we had a long term future. My ex had her share of issues and when you ask yourself if you could sign yourself up for 40+ years and have serious doubts then you need to drop her. You will just be wasting time, don't know how old you are but if you do want to find the right girl then you need to move on.
Does this girl really feel like the one you want to get hitched to for the rest of your days?
If you do get hitched and do the house / kids things do you think there is a good chance s
t will hit the fan and you'll be left living in a bedsit paying a mortgage on a house for her, your kids and whatever new fella she's moved onto?DottyMR2 said:
Is there a storage place nearby her stuff could be put into to save it being there/seeing it? Might make it a bit easier and cleaner break now that she is out. Could avoid the awkward pick her stuff up day too.
She's a skint mature student and will have enough issues getting the cash together for a new place let alone storage and getting it there. Still coming over to do washing and get some space away from the girl who's sofa she's crashing on while I'm at work. Told her this was cool, no need to make things harder on the girl. Should be over by christmas... DottyMR2 said:
No rush for things, possibly some people's and my own problems, trying to plug a hole rather than dealing with things. A bit of flirting is always a wee boost though.
Totally with you on plugging the hole, everything just feels empty without her. Planning on taking some time out, just hit the gym and avoid going out for a bit until I'm back on form (we'll forget my drunken indiscretion after being dumped ). DottyMR2 said:
No it's not great for my self esteem, although I don't too bad wih that really, better than when I was younger though! I see your point, probably been a bit of the problem. Tried to be supportive and it went too far and just became a crutch.
I did seriously think I would spend 40+ years with her while we were together. What has happened though after the breakup and seeing another side to her I suppose put things in perspective. Touches on my point above about plugging a hole. It's actually pretty twisted to tell me that all those guys were just an attempt to replace me. Has kind of made me see the games played.
Chalk it up to life experience and try to forget about it. It's not going to turn me into some bitter bd though! Feels a bit of a waste but I suppose you just have to take chances on these things.
Taking time to adjust is good, enjoy some of the free time you have before filling it with someone else!
I tried getting back with a girl once who had slept with a guy to make me jealous; found it impossible to get the thought out of my head and things went south again pretty fast after that. So are things properly over with her now or are you still going to see her?I did seriously think I would spend 40+ years with her while we were together.

Sounds like a good plan, one that I might or might not regularly employ My track car soaks up a great deal of my time too, it's a good distraction too as it gives me problems all of it's own to solve!
Talking about it has certainly helped though. May be a stranger on the internet, but I think that removes any predjudice from the sitation that friends can bring in when they know each party personally, it's a more impartial view.

I know in 5 years I'll look back and wonder why I let it get to me so much. At the time though no one thinks like that, just got to go through the process.

Yup, it's a total s
t - easy to get sucked into daft idea's about no one knowing what you're going through. Reading over all the replies from this and other threads does put it into perspective. Reminding myself I've been here a few times before and there's always been another great girl round the corner. 5 years sounds like a long time to be planning on worrying about all this. Having good days and bad days at the moment, start feeling better post gym then wake up feeling like crap. Still moving in the right direction.
Had a couple of matches with 18/24 year old girls on Tinder (I'm 33) which has been a nice little boost. God knows how I'd cope with a date right now though.
You been out hunting for a new victim for your romantic attentions?

This thread is useless without pictures.
People posting pictures of their recent ex's would not probably not be all that helpful It twas simply a matter of time before 'that post' tho...
In the mean time, I've been spending lots of time with mates I've neglected over the course of my relationship. My female freinds are now giving fashion advice and seem excited by the chance to do some match making.
In the same way we like our 'projects' it appears they seem to have taken me on as theirs
Hitting the gym a fair bit and am now off to some mental new years day club party. So much for the quiet one I had planned with the ex...

When we split over 5 years ago, I thought that I would become a 'project'
I thought it would be like a Richard Curtis film and I would be invited to dinner parties with all the couples and one single girl.
It never happened. I go to the pub from time to time with the boys and listen to them moan about their wives. At least two of them had affairs that their other halves found out about and they are still together, happy families.
I bloody behaved myself and even turned down chances even though I wasn't getting any at home and I'm still the one sitting in a small flat pulling my pud. (Those chances stopped happening once I was out of the relationship).
A night down the pub with a bunch of tied down mates probably won't result in you meeting too many ladies!I thought it would be like a Richard Curtis film and I would be invited to dinner parties with all the couples and one single girl.

Have you tried a singles night?
Assuming your 35+ there are allot of women at these things (beware the mental and getting dragged into a convo about how much of a s
t their ex husband was etc). The social skills of allot of the guys down there give the impression their auditioning for Rain Man...
I still like a bit of clubbing and partying - where I meet most girls and might have some correlation to the level of the MENTAL I experience in my gf's...

All those Match.com thread types should get over here and see who's recently come on the radar!You sound fit. Are you fit?
Me on the left
So an update on the whole single saga.
The ex still has all her stuff stored here and I just lent her my car to go and visit her dad.
In return I get an earful about the house being a mess and moans about how much I've spent on said car recently. Suddenly reminded about the level of MENTAL involved in that one. Would make it easier if she wasn't so bloody hot...
Still, met a rather lovely journalist lass on Friday who showed no sign on the mental and preffers graphic novels to rom coms and smoking pot to s
te TV. Improvement on the last one, not into stupid cars but sure she could be persuaded Possible date tomorrow. Still not 100% over the ex but things definitely looking better!

Catchy internet dating one liners from intellectual ladies who've e-mailed me:
"Firstly, I eat a lot of takeaways"
"I don't swallow or do anal but anything else is ok"
"I live with my parents, I haven't got a car and I can't work 'cos of my hip, if you're still interested message me"
"Wot u working, am looking"
Spoilt for choice

To be fair #2 doesn't sound too bad, I think you're just being too picky

No2 Sounds like she'd be a nightmare in a restaurant and isn't very tidy or good at lists.
Maybe #1 would be a better option if you're looking for a dining companion?Having chat with the 22 year old I was seeing before my ex, she's over in Ireland now but seems up for paying me a visit.
To be fair if the age gap wasn't so daft she might be a serious contender.
She did also send me a link to Sleepers "Inbetweener".

The girl does have a sense of humor...
Seeing the girl I met up with on Friday again tonight.
Being pulled between heartbreak and actually having a laugh getting back to my bad old ways.
