everyone in love but u?

Does anyone else have the same problem that when they come out of a relationship, you find everyone is in love? Everyone around you is holding hands, and all your closest friends are in love. More people just can't help mentioning its their 3 month anniversary, and telling you "the sweetest thing my bf sayed today". Am i the only one that notices this?

Yeah, i was on holiday abroad, where everyone was practically a couple and i felt like the odd one out! And mostly whenever I went to the pool everywhere I looked couple were kissing or massaging each other with sun lotion just basically being in love.... it made me feel kinda lonely and annoyed. :frown:

Ooooooh yes, know the feeling. I was at work a couple of days after breaking up with my boyfriend and I swear every second customer was buying a pregnancy book, or were a couple. Bah!

But meh, I guess I'll be one of them again someday.

I feel it is the same around me....and to make things worse, it feels like everyone I know is in some sort of long term relationship which has lasted years and years :frown:

Yet I am still all alone and have been for sometime no...just can't put myself in the situation to meet the ight sort of girl for me... :frown:

yep...i know the feeling well! lol. It sucks when you're alone and have to watch all the loved-up-ness of summer. But it'll be ok, i'm happy the way i am atm, and you should be too!...go out in a big group, have fun...and soon you'll hardly notice it...and maybe even in a new relationship of your own :wink:

but in the meantime...couples suck!!! :p:

I think when you just come out of a relationship, you understandably tend to become a tad hypersensitive to those around you who are in love and in relationships.

Especially if you've been in a relationship for a long time; adapting to life being single can be quite difficult at first simply because it's something you haven't been used to.

It feels horrible when you think everyone around you has someone, yet you do not; but fortunately it is almost always temporary. You can always find someone else, and not everyone has someone anyway.

I hope you feel better soon! :smile:

It's called Original Awareness, pet. When we are especially conscious of something - whether we've just learnt it or recently experienced something to do with it - we'll readily spot similar instances throughout our everyday lives.

Am I the only one who thinks anniversarys are for weddings? I don't understand the whole 1,2,3,4 (etc) month anniversary thing.

As RS said, you're only picking up on it due to the fact you've just left a relationship.

I never celebrated anniversaries with my ex, but we'd point out when they were because it was like 'bloody hell... has it really been that long'. Well, we celebrated our one year with a meal, but apart from that...

I don't get the people who make a huge deal about their x month anniversaries though. Though it's kind of cute in a way...

Technically, if it's only months, it's not an anniversary. :wink:

We had a nice meal when we made it to 6 months (having never thought I'd get that far!) and a bit of a celebration for our anniversary, but not for just a few months. Think you can have anniversaries without being married though :wink:
