aunt honesty agony auntOh dear this girl is all over the place, it seems she has low self asteem and is not ready for a healthy relationship, as for being scared of you this is her just trying to push the blame on you and you shouldnt let her, you need to let her go believe me dont contact her again.

As for meeting someone else no wonder you cant get a women because everyone you hook up with is just a rebound and probably always just makes you feel even worse than before so you also need to stop this.

This is what you have to do, you need to start being happy with being on your own first before you are happy with another girl. So go out with your friends and enjoy yourself, do things alone that you enjoy doing, you will soon start to forget about your ex and start feeling happy it takes time we have all had to do it, when you feel happy alone and you will then no when its right to start going on the dating game again, start it slowely by talking to a few girls, but dont just sleep with them take there number and get to know them before having sex.
