what is wrong with me?


Question Posted Tuesday September 5 2006, 4:17 am

I broke up with my bf of nearly 4 years about 3 months ago. He was emotionally and mentally abusive to me. I had been in councelling for a while and I thought I had nearly got over him. Well yesterday I decided to sign up for a dating site. I actually received about 4 responses to my profile. Instead of contacting these guys that wrote me; I got freaked out and deleted my profile. Does anyone know what is wrong with me?

theres nothing wrong with you unless your subconsciously afraid of your ex. what ever you do dont go back with him. it might take a little bit to readjust to normality. 4 years is along time to put up with bullcrap.i cant believe you lasted that long with him. meeting people online really isnt safe anyways so its probaly better you deleted your profile. you should try meeting people in the real world.

Sure. Your not weird or anything. Your just nervous and scared of being hurt again. We all go through it. It takes time to get over it. Just take it as a lesson learned that your not ready yet and you dont have to be.

you're scarred and scared. but dont worry. over time you will get over it. my friend went through the same thing. if you do date online it can be dangerous, i suggest that you suggest a group date so you and one of your friends can be there if this guy tries to hurt you. good luck if you need to talk email me at princess.milena@gmail.com

good luck!

nothings wrong. your still getting over the fact that you were treating wrong. just give yourself some time. when you feel confident enough, try making a new profile and see how you react. hope this helps

nothings wrong with you, you're probably just afraid that these guys will do to you what your old boyfriend did to you. there's no harm in being careful, but it doesnt seem like you're ready for dating right now. it'll take you a little while to regain your sense of trust for men, so just give it time. :)

There is nothing wrong with you! You just are not ready for that much attention yet, give it time. After you've been in a horrible relationship.. its hard to get in a healthy one. But you will do it, when your mind is ready. Just give it time.
