I am new to this site, and have been looking for some advice about an issue I have been having. I am 24 years old and have to admit that I truly do not know how to be out of a relationship. My first relationship was when I was 15, and it had a very traumatic ending. After that relationship, I went on from one relationship to the next. Very unstable and unhealthy relationships. I recently broke up with my last boyfriend of 2 years (the longest relationship I have ever had). He was a great guy and I tried to stay in it because I did not want to start all over again. But I realized I was with him for all the wrong reasons... I was not in love with him and I did not want to be alone. I am going through some tough times (I moved to another city to start grad school) and I dont have many friends because my "adult life" I have spent in relationships, shutting myself off from friendships. I miss my ex boyfriend because he was always there for me, but I have no intention on getting back with him. I need to take some time off to myself and I really do not want to jump into any other relationship. It is just so hard for me to be single, Im don't feel like Im any good at it and being surrounded by family and friends that are getting married and in relationships just make things more challenging for me.
Any advice on how to be happy being single, making new friends without seeming awkward, or anything of the like would be so truly appreciated !
