Hi dprelz
"On to living the bachelor life and ****ing girls and ignoring them after."
Umm, yeh becareful with that. It's very easy to destroy or crush your future prospects acting this way. There are many girls out there who are "Nice girls", who would NEVER hurt a guy the way your ex did (And the way my ex did as well). I know because i met some of these nice girls, i think they don't deserve the harsh treatment just because your ex turned out to be a *****.
I know from personal experience it's sometimes not easy to get the balance right after being dumped (especially in the manner that you were dumped). It's very hard to rediscover that emotional intimacy with another girl, all attraction seems to go straight to physical. But it is something you will really have to work on. It's almost been two months since the time i was dumped and although i am busy at dating i still find it hard to have that 100% trust in the girl i am with (Always, there's that nagging thought in the back of my mind will she treat me the same way? She didn't return my message, is there something going on? Is she really worth it?). It can be very hard and frustrating at times, but in the end rebuilding that trust in yourself for other women is really worth it (I wish though i was making a better progress myself - sigh)
You know, the more i think about it, the more i come to a conclusion that so many thing in a relationship with a woman really depends on yourself (How strong you yourself are, how intelligent you yourself are, how happy in life you yourself are, how affectionate you yourself are). I so far i found that all above act as a kind of a magnetism, the more developed your personal traits are the easier it becomes to attract the right person and keep them.
Anyways, hope above helps!!!
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil
