My 1.5 year relationship ended around 2-3 months ago. I’ve been through this before so I’m handling it well, of course with its slight ups and downs.

I have this crazy urge to jump back in the game. I feel the need for the validation both emotionally and physically a lot. I can’t help but feel I am over the relationship, so why wait? I’ve tried pretty desperately, hitting up girls left right centre, downloading dating apps. Nothing. This is probably just the law of magnetics. The more you push for it, the harder it comes to you.

I’m starting to approach girls more but I’m having a hard time dealing with rejection. Not that it hurts my ego, but it confuses me. I’ll talk to a girl at my gym who eyes me down a lot and she’ll be dry as hell, or I’ll talk to this girl outside the club and we’ll be shooting the shit and then when it comes to getting her number she says no.

I’m a decent looking guy. Tall, muscular. I’m not really a pussy-getting oriented guy either, but after this breakup there’s this fire inside me where every second I’m not working towards getting play I feel uneasy.
