well, all i can say is not to beat yourself up over it

"What? Another girl! Tell me my boy. *whispers* what have you been doing?" - Tobias

dude thats rough....I know its easier said than done but try not to dwell on it too much.

don't be tempted to do the "strip clubs and beer" thing though too soon either, it can be even more depressing.

try doing everything she wouldn't let you do, or you couldn't get away with when she was there, I've found it helps. Play computer games dressed only in your dressing gown, don't wash, don't shave, eat **** food thats bad for you but tastes good and watch sci-fi and action films 24/7....its not gonna make the problem go away, but you'll feel a lot better...especially if you do it for a week or so, then clean yourself up, I can guarantee you'll feel 200% when you leave the house.

Or alternatively cry your eyes out til you can't breathe then tell us all about it....we'll give you crap advice in a vain effort to help, which won't help at all but it might make you feel better knowing there are people out there that are sadder than yourself!

PS. it takes balls to admit that it affected you.... don't put yourself down.

ah.. must be hard on ya...... tho i've never been in a relationship to begin with.. is seeing my eagle blow up in the atmosphere of manhattan anywhere close ?

That's tough dude, hang in there.

bit rough that, but u'll get over it, ready for the nxt one. although that might seem harsh, believe me bust ups get worse as u get older. wait till u get divorced!

and it's better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all.

Ah, being single. Hopefully I'll never be there again.

You meet a fox, she has a man.
You meet a dog, she has a plan.

Let's get those missiles ready to destroy the universe!!

@ freighter fighter,

Not excaitly beating myself up about it. But thanks.

@ gromit,

No no, I don't intend to go for a beer and strip joint. I do plan to go for midnight pie on friday with a friend however. And unfortunaly, I can't do things she won't let me do. Because she let me do pretty much whatever I wanted. Only time she didn't like me being on the comp when I was with her. And I didn't cry, just mopped.

@ kimk,

I don't think that really counts...

@ Tawakalna,

Hopefully I'll never get divorced....

@ Ugnaught,

*twack*

Thanks to you all for your support.

She let you do everything and you broke up with her? what's wrong with you?

Seriously, sorry to hear that. We've all been there before!

I didn't break up with her It was a metual thing. We got into the relationship for other reasons then each other, and it was based on sex. Not a good combo.

You two got into the relationship for the sex? again I must ask - why did you break up?

Didn't you watch Seinfeld? there's no such thing as mutual breakup - at least noone's gonna buy it .

*Twatcks FF*

We're not dating, but we're probaly going to be friends with benifits.

So what were you planning to base it on, mutual respect. HA!

Nah, seriously, hard luck but the single life isn't that bad as people make it out to be. Sure it can get lonely at times but there is the freedom to do what you want when you want (like eating your evening meal at 1am) and the thought that you can have any woman you desire with minimal repercussions. Not that you can ACTUALLY have any woman you desire, but it's a pleasant thought none the less.

Besides moping around about how you haven't got a girlfriend is ass paper, go out drinking with your buddies and if your feeling sassy take a "she'll do" girl home for the night, it'll do you the world of good.

I have my dinner at about 10pm-12am after I finish my work

And I'm going for midnight pie this friday with my two best friends. That'll cheer me up.

And I'd love to being home a "she'll do" girl, but unfortunaly, I still live with my mom. Not good.

Ah, well, guess it's not so bad for you, after all. If your relationship was based on sex,this is the stuff that's the easiest to replace.
