In August I ended a 3.5 yr relationship.

Great decision.

I handled it by no longer hiding my Tinder account

You just got to go through the pain of getting over her. There is no way around it. It will subside.

volod, I got out of a shitty two year relationship about 4 months ago. Since then, I moved from Houston to Dallas and have used Tinder and Bumble to my utmost advantage. “Of course I’m looking for a relationship.” The magic line to get laid that night. Make sure you look them in the eyes and say it with sincerity.

Like I quit smoking, cold turkey, walk away Rene. It's the only way to
stop the pain although it'll continue for a while. When you leave like
that, knowing you'll not go back, I guess it's like closure.

You’re not the only one going through this type of thing. Just curious- how old are you and how old is she? Wonder if women of all ages are becoming third wave feminists.

Everyone is saying to “start banging” and “slay strange.” They’re leaving out an important caveat. Do that but don’t wear a rubber. You gotta LIVE, MAN. Nothing says moving on like raw doggin’ it.

Breaking from a 6 year relationship when you are a bit older than a young college buck isn't as easily resolved (banging whore spree is less effective). Take a break, work, workout, read, hang with your friends and then the ill feelings go away and you are back in the game.

Losing a loved one in any form, is a thing only time will fully heal.

Some tricks to make it easier:

Prayer
Stay busy
Pick up a hobby like working out or golf
Do projects around the house
Socialize with friends
Read books

Drugs, lots of drugs.

Also excessive texting and calling.

I'm not sure of your age but a few years ago I ended a relationship and started dating. I had a couple of girlfriends in high school, a couple in college and married after school so had always tended to have a steady. I decided this to have fun and date around, live a little.
So I dated a lot, so much that women started commenting on me doing what they themselves did, that was OK for them but not me. It became a problem in meeting new women because I had no idea how much they talk and know all.
My advice to you is get healed up enough to be a fun date and not drag the former relationship into things. Date a whole bunch, guard your privacy like it is gold and and mount as many of them as you can.

I often hear people talk about things like ‘I’m not ready for a relationship’ or something along that lines

The truth is, you’ll probably never feel ‘ready’ for it especially in a situation like yours.. be single and free and when the right person comes around, you won’t feel a sense of pressure to make a decision to be ‘ready’.. it’ll just come natural


So don’t put too much pressure on your situation.. live for yourself, and when it’s time to make a switch, you’ll know

Gf of 3 years broke up with me right before one of the biggest interviews in my life back in October. Marriage was in the talks for a while, but lack of communication about our problems eventually led to the break up. Women suck arse baw.

It was real hard the first month or so but things got better as time passed along. Hooking up with new girls only helps so much so I wouldn’t advise using that as a primary coping method. I immediately started hitting the gym and focusing on myself. Keeping myself busy too has been essential. Somedays you just want to stay in bed because your mind can’t stop analyzing what you or your ex could have done better in the relationship, but you have to just make yourself realize that there’s really nothing you could have done better. Things just weren’t working out and it was time to move on to bigger and better things.

I do recommend drinking lots of alcohol and hanging out with your friends (mostly single friends), but don’t make drinking a habit...

Shite sucks, baw. But things do get better. Remember to just focus on yourself until you’re ready to jump back into things but do take your time.

I jumped big time into my work and being at the top of my game. The breakup helped me attain OT Baller status.
