    Break ups are hard, no doubt about it. I've been through a divorce myself (unwillingly), and it sucks.

    But honestly, sounds like she wasn't a good fit. The emotional side will fade, and you'll realize later that it was actually a good thing.

    It took me almost a year to be able to say that about my marriage (we were together for 5), but in the end, I'm so glad we split (even though I was the one fighting to keep it together originally).

    As others have said, spend time making yourself into the person that you're inspired by, and someone who appreciates that will come along. Who knows, you might even have too many choices ;)

    Well that was an entertaining read, OP jumps on anyone who tries to give sane advice.

    In case they are still listening..

    Why did you bother?

    Someone finishes with you before it has even started, where can it go?

    They decided you are not for them, you are not accepted, trusted or respected.

    Move on to the next chapter in your life and try to learn from experience.

    Of course that might require some honest reflection, oh dear did I muddy or poison last sentence?

    Good Luck in your future, I am sure the right person will come along.
    Thanks, don't you just hate people with sigs !
