Is this too much to ask? (exes, and the future.)?

Question

I used to have a boyfriend. We split up in April. I know he's still fond of me; he'd probably agree to get back together (if that was what I wanted.) The problem is that I figured out that I wasn't romantically interested in him - he was a great guy and a great friend, but not what I wanted in a boyfriend.

I'm so lonely lately. All I see all around are happy couples.
I want a boyfriend. I want to feel wanted and needed and special and appreciated and like a person again, not a rejected piece of garbage.

And I feel guilty for this, because the one and only guy in the whole universe who actually wanted me, I was too picky and I rejected.

Do I have a chance at finding someone else?
And where should I look?

I'm not that pretty. I'm not that great, period, but I'm so sick of being alone. I wake up alone and wish I hadn't awakened at all.

Answer 1

Have some confidence and hope. You didn't "reject" him... You're not being picky. If you're not romantically interested, that's just the way it is. Being too picky is not dating people because of insignificant details.

I dumped my only g/f three years ago, and have not had a single date since. But I don't regret leaving her... She just was NOT my type whatsoever.

Just have patience. Someone will come along. That's what I've been told...

Answer 2

awww i know how you feel. lonely, sad, thinking you'll never find anyone again. that was me before as well! i was so sure i'd never find anyone else.

you'll heal with time :) and when it becomes easier, you'll go back to who you were before. when the time is right, a great guy will come along naturally, i just know it. i know it doesnt feel at all possible now, but it will happen! that lucky guy will love you for who you are, afterall, personalitys the most important factor in a real, lasting relationship.

all you have to do now is just wait for time to pass. try doing fun activities you enjoy to fill up time. i hope you get better soon!!
