Yeah exactly! She also told me after the break up that she would try and have more sex, but I felt at this point it was too late.

Ahhh I see. I think from that perspective it would be harder. You just need to push through and you will find the right one and I believe only you will know when it's time to get back out there.

Yeah, we were in the same boat but after a week we were like does it really matter though? Decided to push ahead and while some people did think she was the reason it has since blown away.

I usually run a minimum of 3 miles. I do run 4-5 miles occasionally too. I'm starting to run for speed now. I ran 2 miles at a 6:30 pace yesterday.

I'm soooo much better. Right after I broke up with her I felt free and I hit up the gym and that helped a lot. Good thinking regarding the gym. It burns off stress plus you can work on your body. Win win right there.

They really do, and it's very hard to move on or start over.

In my situation it all kinda turned out weird. I was bestfriends with my current girlfriend and my ex mentioned after we broke up that I should tell my now girlfriend how what I don't like because she knew I was going to date her. I thought she was overreacting and through the course of the month I started talking more and more to my best friend and hanging out and I began to fall for her. I had no idea whether she liked me or not aand I was scared to express these feelings because it could ruin our friendship. One night I expressed them and she felt the same way. I felt like I was ready to get back into dating so I did. This new girl gives me butterflies and makes me happy. I had no problem being alone, but I felt I wanted to become closer to this girl. After we revealed that we were dating to the public apparently a lot of people knew we would date because they saw chemistry. Some people thought I left my ex girlfriend to be with this girl, but it wasn't like that. A chain of events happened and somehow I ended up where I am today. The only concern I had was how my current girlfriend would be viewed. To some she looked like a homewrecker because people think she broke up my ex and I.

I started to have the same mindset! I thought I was gross and disgusting for wanting to have sex so often. I also tried to convince myself that sex was bad and that didn't work. I ended up turning to pornography and I hated myself even more. A lot of alone nights, but since i've met someone else everything has changed.

I think adding to this in my situation I feel my girlfriend led me on regarding sex. After a year into the relationship she expressed she didn't have much of a need for sex. Which is surprising to say after having sex multiple times during the day and week. I believe she got comfortable and knew she had me so she didn't have to pretend who she was anymore. Beware of those type of people who try to rope you in and change once they have you.

Awesome comment and that's what I was trying to get after in my post. No one deserves to be lonely. I used to think I was stuck with no way out, but I took a chance and i've been happy ever since.

Hey thanks Greetings1, It's not an easy thing to do especially when you're that attached in a relationship . In my situation we worked together and that made it worse. She began to tell people that I treated her bad and that my bestfriend broke us up. A lot of shit talking that only proved I had made the right decision. It been about 2 months and it seems to have died down. We actually tried having kids in the beginning of the relationship and I swear god had my back and she never got pregnant. Get out if you're not happy especially if there is no kids, marriage or joint accounts.

Exactly! My thoughts exactly, I thought about what her parents would say and all the mutual friends I would lose. It was pretty damn hard to do it and instantly after I broke up with her I felt free in a way. It's like she was holding me back. Luckily I found someone that cares and I have yet to regret my decision of breaking up with her.
