What was the lie that she told you that you felt you had to "test her" on?

Focus more on your hobbies - weed and PornHub.

She kept telling me this coworker of mine was just a friend. But she used to say that "we don't talk, we don't anything." Her story kept evolving.

Who cares! It's was a short, minor relationship on top of that you had 10 other issues going on...

It's all too much. You obsess over every detail.

You don't know what it was.

Just know the wounded veterans in the VA hospitals have it a lot worse: amputees, paralysis, quadriplegia, severe burn victims, etc. Worse yet - some are the result of accidental "friendly fire". I read the book by Frederick Downs called "Aftermath". He lost his arm from a booby trap that exploded in Vietnam. He spent months in recovery and eventually made it back to Fort Fitsimons Hospital in Denver. While there, he recalled one particular day where he got two letters the Red Cross Nurse helped him read. One stated his best friend from boot camp had been killed. Another was from his wife who decided to divorce him and leave him for another man. She also intended full custody of their children. So the guy lost his arm, his best friend from boot camp, and his wife while still trying to recover from an amputation. Those wounded guys in the VA hospitals deal with far worse pain.


Those Vietnam Veterans are elderly now. But they were once young. The "Nam" was hell on earth. Casualties were common with many types wounds. Agent Orange is still causing health problems decades later.

Best advice to give,

Take this relationship as a lesson, do what you know best. It is better she left now and not later.

Keep on trusting for the next one, but always keep 1 eye open. This is what dating is about, and if you break up, you should be better prepared, like a pro.

So breathe, clear your life of the last conquest totally

Yep.


It's a little different when you've been with someone for a long time, and you were really in love, but more often than not, it's our ego and pride that's crushed, more so than our hearts, when the relationship wasn't that long.


Get out there son, and let her see what she's missing.

Yes when you've been emotionally involved and it ends it does tend to take its toll therefore makes it harder to open up and move on so agreed

Although when this has occured just by being out and about with mates, in the pubs/bars or wherever and keeping busy does really help take things of your mind and has always been my go to.

And naturally whilst you're out and about you'll no doubt find one sooner rather than later that you like and begin to focus your time and energy into her, I'm not saying you'll move on straight away of course but from my experience it's the best possible way to gradually heal and move on in the quickest possible manner
