I can understand that. Thanks for your posts, everyone.

Hey, Sweetie. I know it's tough. Three weeks isn't enough time to get over someone, so the fact that you're hitting a down spell is normal especially before Valentine's Day. The guy that I dated last summer is still under my skin; but it has gotten much, much better over time. The same will...

Aw, come on! You were almost there! Give it a try!

We want an equal and a man who can stand with us and face the harsh realities of this world.

It's evolution. Many men pull it off. I think you're making it more complicated than it needs to be.

I tend to be the same way, and that raises a good point. To make true friends, it requires spending consistent time with them. It doesn't have to be all the time, but you do have to see them regularly. with the guys at work, have you tried talking about something that you're interested in...

I guess she's just not convinced that you're past her romantically. Maybe some of the others might have advice that they can give you, but you may have to give up at this point. You can revisit after several months of no contact. I'm sorry to hear about this. I know it's tough.
