Hello April,
So here is my situation… I was with a girl we’ll call VV, for about 4 or 5 years and we had a year break in the middle of that relationship. The only big thing about VV was that she was extremely argumentative. It was something she got from her mother growing up and there was nothing that could be done to change that part of her. Ultimately it’s what ended us.
I’ve been single for about 3 years now and I waited about a year before dating again. My problem is, because I was with her for so long, anyone that I meet, I compare them to her. I’ve met a few people that came close, but nothing ever stuck. It made me miss her more and more. I tried reaching out to her… she’s seeing someone else and they’ve been together about 2 years. Nothing I can say will get her to come back… I tried.
I’ve tried dating different types of women and have tried sleeping around… nothing seems to break me out of the “wanting her” way that I’m stuck in. I feel like I’m becoming more and more cynical everyday… can you help?
