Let me guess, she became incensed over the election and started adopting that ideology?



To be fair, We had other issues. The feminism just enhanced them.

It wasn't the election that caused it. She was turning that way before POTUS Trump came in.

It was personal life issues that triggered it. The political climate right now basically added fuel to it.

Changes in scenery often help. New zip code. New friend. Restaurants and watering holes. New job at Raytheon...

Oops.

I went through it not to long ago. The main thing I did was focus on myself. I hung out with my friends and played a lot of golf to keep my mind off of it. Time heals all baw. You will look up in a couple of months and will be fine. Your body can only give a shite for so long. Just focus on bettering yourself and everything will work itself out

It's easier for the woman to move on to other partners. But only time and the out of sight out of mind will get you to not think about her.

I've been on more dates since August than I had in the previous 10 years of my life. Had a gf for 5 of those. Yeah sometimes you feel like a stud, others it's just exhausting.

The majority of responses will be to hook up with other people as soon as possible and as often as possible. Those people have low self esteem and that is their means of coping unfortunately.

Take some time and focus on yourself and the things that make you happy.

So just allow it to happen.

This.

Look the hurt & loneliness directly in the eyes and just accept it as it inevitably rains down on you. Don't try to distract yourself; that will only delay the inevitable and make it worse. "The only way past it is through it." Follow the natural arc of pain & recovery. The healing process is slow, so just accept that reality going into it.

And, of course, PIIHB.

A big part of breaking up is the fact that that person has been part of your life for so long. Anytime you change something that fricks up a routine you been on for years it takes some time, but the best way to take care of that is to get on a new routine. Fine some new people to be around, be friends with... And eventually you will not give a frick about your ex.

Don't do like the rest of your brethren and lock down an ugly, fat white girl.

It is time to outkick your coverage on your next real relationship.

Do you have as friends a couple who know you well? And who like you?
Does the woman in the couple know other women equally well?

The one serious match making I did ended in marriage (and they are still married 25+ years later) worked because both my husband and I knew the guy from grad school, work and social (I was the maid of honor in his first wedding) and we could describe what kind of woman he needed to a woman friend of mine, who thought through her friends, and came up with someone he should date. He did. They did. and a year later, permanent.

And a hint, don't comment on the feminist bull, any potential fix up date has probably heard it from her friends or almost-friends, and doesn't want anything to do with them either.

It's supposed to hurt because you cared. Nothing wrong with that.Take your time and enjoy some introspection for awhile. Change up your routines.

Time really does heal all wounds.

Not sure what your situation is but me after 6 years would do the following

if I have my own place I would reorganize and clean the whole house/apartment. Nothing overly drastic just a legit spring cleaning/field day type clean. I want my bed perfect and smelling like downy or tide or whatever.

Put away anything and everything of hers, mail it back and get it out of your daily sight.

Next I would take leave or vacation days and go away somewhere, anywhere, whatever you like. It is winter so me...I would want to go boarding in Colorado or something and go look at snow bunnies and drink bourbon.

The change in scenery and break from my normal routine would allow me to reflect properly on the relationship in a healthy manner and get perspective without it having any immediate impact on my work or personal life.

The time away should be therapeutic for you and should help you recharge your batteries for when you do go back to your every day life. The clean house is representative of a fresh start and clear head, the time away is for perspective and vision going forward for what you want and your plan for how your going to get it.

If you want to manwhore it up as suggested there is no better place to do it than on vacation with no strings attached

If you want to take time to find something serious...you at least put yourself in a better state of mind to pursue that and might have a clearer vision of what you are looking for and how to get it
