Seeking advice
Hey there everyone, just reaching out for some advice I guess. This follows a previous post about my 5 year m/m ending in January, me M(26) & him M(25). For context I was actively looking for rings and planned on purposing to this guy in the spring, but shitty things came to light (on his end) during a manic episode and I said some terrible things to him that I still regret.
He is the only person I have ever felt this way for and I can't seem to escape the feeling. I have tried to distract myself with dates, but every guy is just of no interest and I find myself wishing it was ex. I went on a date with an amazing guy last week and just cried when I got home because I miss my ex.
I hike at least 6 miles a week and I'm consistently at the gym. This is best I've ever looked and the healthiest I have ever been but yet I feel so empty. I'm not normally a lovey dovey guy but for him I was; he's on my mind 24/7 and I truly hate it.
My question: When should I expect these feelings to subside so I can move on? I feel so stupid for not being able to when he has moved on.
