I’m on my way home from my third date this week. Don’t judge. I haven’t dated in ages.
Anyway. I am yet to snog anyone.
Last night and tonight were the same story. Nice date with nice guy who tried to get romantical but I did not want to get romantical with them.
Now is the hard bit. When I leave the date, and my mind starts to wander.
Will I ever find anyone who I like the way I liked my ex?
Yes.
But. Do you think you could be a bit…like, over-dated? Dated out? Stale for the process? Sounds to me like it’s all grinding you down at the moment (without any good grinding!). If it’s not fun, maybe try just… Not?
You are a bright, funny, articulate young lady with so much to give. But don’t force yourself in to finding someone to give it too. If it’s all too much like hard work, do something different for a while?
Thinking of you xxx
You know what? I had the same thought.
No shame in taking a break. A year on and I still cannot even contemplate dating. We were together 7 years and it is gonna take time to be okay again. I’m sort of thinking I’ll know when the time’s right.
Supporting you, whatever steps you take x
Of course you will. You just have to make sure you aren’t comparing all of these men to your ex. They will never be him and he will never be them. It’s the hardest thing I’ve had to learn.
So wise. And so hard to do.
i continue to wonder the same thing when I meet people and I am just completely numb and not feeling a thing
