I'm Afraid That I'll Be Single Forever

The guy I've been dating for the past four months broke up with me last weekend. He is conflicted about many things; past relationships, he wants to socialize more so he can quit thinking over things so much, he was conflicted about whether or not I would be a good match for him (obviously because he broke the relationship off) and he says all he wants to do is work out. Basically he is just very conflicted inside his head and I tried not to take it too personally when he broke it off, although I'm sad about it and miss dating him a little bit. In another way it was a little bit of a relief because he seemed so needy and wanted me to stay with all the time. He said he enjoyed my company but also having me spend the night kept him from lying awake and obsessing over things. I honestly think he needs to see a therapist and talk all these conflicts out. I am lonely though and afraid I'll never meet anyone out there for me. I've tried dating sites and all the men I went out with wanted were one night stands.

I was married after only dating her for a couple of months. It seemed rather rushed at the time because we barely knew each other. Once the divorce was finalized I felt a sense of peace but also had that hole where I missed her. I was needy, I was obsessed but it took a lot of therapy and self discovery to get me where I am at today. If you ever need someone to listen, or a friend, feel free to pm me anytime. My door is open because I can totally relate to what you are going through
