I want a boyfriend but at the same time I am terrified of being hurt and used again

Question - (19 July 2010) 0 Answers - (Newest, )
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

Its been a year since my ex totally broke my heart, he didn't even had the manners to talk to me, to tell me he was seeing another woman. He deliberately drove past my house with her in the car as his way of showing me he was seeing her. I am still so devastated, empty and hurting even after all this time. I can cry at just the very thought of him. He lives only a few mins away from me and I am terrified I will bump into him, let alone with her! I deserved more than the way he dumped me.

I so want to find someone loving, kind, funny I am so very very lonely and sad inside. I don't think my heart will ever heal and really shut me down inside. I have tried dating sites, I get lots of looks but hardly any messages. Which in turn has made my self esteem rock bottom. My ex-husband also walked away from me and my kids 10 years ago.

I want a boyfriend but at the same time I am terrified of being hurt and used again. Every time I see a couple holding hands or kissing I ache inside. Im a good person, kind, pretty, fun, I have two lovely kids I brought up on my own, one at uni one doing A levels. I don't understand why men are so horrible to me, why I never get a date only used and abused.

I am 44 and feel that maybe all men want younger women to date. I am so confused, lonely and hurting so badly inside can anyone help?
