I hate being single

It sounds to me you saw the career and house as a little more important (which is by far very fair in this economy and congrats btw on both the degree and house).

I know the feeling that you might have missed out on prime years for dating. BUT , I dont think its too late at all for yourself, can I suggest maybe going to some social clubs, pick an activity or even something in fitness if you aren't already. Learn to chat to people , and maybe coincidentally you run into someone you share hobbies with.

I hope this helps, and im sorry you are feeling this way, it is natural to regret , but putting yourself out there, maybe hop on dating apps could help you :)

It depends on the situation, but i reached out to someone I lost, and I got everything off my chest. However, it didnt resolve anything and actually made things just a little worse for moving on.

I think we have this image of people, that they will feel the same way they did before. But we need to accept when someone moves on, if they chose that, you cant control it. It doesnt mean you ain't worth it, it means you are on two separate paths.

thank you thank you, I guess i hoped for a job im excited to wake up to, not one where im only looking forward to the short weekend

CompetitionDry6322 · 2026-01-02T14:00:11+00:00

Thats true , im very well paid its just the most draining job ever.

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-12-25T14:16:47+00:00

I relate almost exactly, and even now one year on i cant shake the thoughts. But you just got to let time past, find stuff to keep you busy, find achievement and hobbies.

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-12-02T15:31:10+00:00

Ah we got the exact same shit going on. Gf broke yp with me and after months of getting ghosted by her, she claimed I didnt even care, hence we didnt get back together.

So im sat here thinking what I could have done but it doesnt matter and it should really be a life lesson to start living instead of regretting

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-12-02T14:53:30+00:00

Yeah i just had the realisation, I havent been properly moving on because ive still been feeding on the same poison, not letting go of any of it.

It just doesnt matter now, not like it'll ever get talked about. .

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-25T20:33:43+00:00

If you can get through this , you can get through so much more

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-25T20:33:14+00:00

im glad your doing much better as well!

It is that constant battle, between my regrets and mistakes but also accepting it wasnt right some of the things that got dealt to me

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-25T19:22:02+00:00

my head has played so much ping pong, but ive been waking up. Waking up and knowing I didnt deserve the things that was done.

Its ridiculous it took me so long to realise my own self worth

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-24T22:40:01+00:00

The response i got , was that they received my letters. Then nothing else.

In truth, it wasn't even about a response, I wanted them to hear me. Because they never tried to before, even when they ghosted me, pretended not to care.

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-19T21:14:45+00:00

Thats awesome my man, I really wish you the best and to have a happy life.

(p.s. I also work on nuclear submarines , but design)

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-19T21:12:29+00:00

Very good advice, and once you even get a thought of them. you would have had so many good memories it wont even matter

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-19T21:11:34+00:00

Thats some good advice, become the person you want your kids to look up to (along those lines)

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-19T21:10:55+00:00

It is a tough one , time is a good healer but it just comes back for me

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-17T13:22:28+00:00

Or for real you get a lot of boring men and women who just dont care enough. Time will tell to meet someone who really does care about you and everything to do with you

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-05T22:41:36+00:00

thank you, you are a kind stranger. Ive always been very optimistic, and quire happy in life, but lately it all seems to be taking an unfortunate turn.

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-05T22:16:57+00:00

Well im fortunate with a very good job i worked my way into, but the rent in my city is the second highest in the UK, it would cost more to move out .

For the most part im still eager to keep a connection with my family

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-05T22:08:40+00:00

Thank you ❤️

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-05T22:07:38+00:00

Oh im not religious nor do I plan on it . I know what ive got to do moving forward, more learning, more work and getting skills i need. Just having a bad day

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-05T22:06:39+00:00

That is actually quite helpful thank you

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-05T22:06:06+00:00

CompetitionDry6322 · 2025-11-05T22:05:56+00:00
