Ive just come out of a 4 1/2 year long
relationship. It was really good up
untill the last six months. I found out
my fiance was a liar and also a theif!
It feels so strange to be single again, I
love having the free time to see the girls
and I love going out and talking to guys,
but its wierd being in the house on my
own, i'm only 22 but i'm left with a big
house, mortgage and bills on my own! I'm
not sued to sorting all this on my own!!!!
Thing is, is that i'm petrefied of
getting into a relationship again. Ive
been out on dates with some really lovely
men, but I dont think I will ever be able
to trust anyone again!
Is there anyone else in the same
situation?

Sounds like you're my twin sister on the
other end of the world.
Try 9 years of long term relationships,
then abandoned into the single life of
casual dating. Independance can be
lonely, especially when you're used to
co-dependance for so long. Will you
learn to trust someone again? Quite
possibly, just don't expect it to happen
anytime soon.
At our age it's very tough since no one
really wants to settle down, and there are
quite a few out there who are more
interested in what we have.. (i.E.
House/car/etc.) than who we are.
So, i've been coping by going on the
casual dates and living it up a little....
I'm just waiting for someone to come
across that makes me settle down, not just
because I want to commit to someone, but
because of the person they are.. Makes me
want to commit to *them*.
Not sure if this helps or not, but
hopfully puts a thought or two in your
head.
