after finding out my bf of 5 years cheated on me with his colleague I've been so devastated my friend adviced me to start dating and meet other guys
I've went on 2 dates so far and I feel guilty even being with a other guy. and honestly I don't want to compare but I can feel I'm not interested even if the guys are sweet
I know my ex did the worst thing to me but my heart stil belongs to him 💔

you’re on these dates, is it guilt you feel the most, or grief? like missing who you thought he was and the life you pictured together
it's both I never picturing myself with anyone else and I still can't
this hurt to read. for me, dating too soon just showed me how not-ready i was, and that was okay. sometimes the guilt isn’t about the new person, it’s about how deep the bond with your ex still runs. nothing wrong with noticing that.
I want to forget him so badly and seeing him post makes me think how happy he is without me probably with her
after i found out my ex cheated, i tried dating too and i felt SICK with guilt, like i was betraying someone who already betrayed me. my heart was still stuck on him even though my brain knew better. it’s such a messed up place to be
it's exactly how I'm feeling and they guy kissed me good nights and I literally cried all night
give it time
Time to get use to it ?
give yourself time to fall in love with yourself first before you start dating I personally would still date but just see it as gaining new experiences using it as an excuse to look pretty and boost my confidence x
thank you so much for this advice it definitely is a confidence boost after everything I've been through. I honestly felt guilty going out with another man and just thought to myself how could he cheat so easily
