Yeah but you’re 6 foot 8, women love tall men and you’d find it easy finding another woman. Spare a thought for me 5 foot 9.5 a short arse not even the minimum 6 foot required standard these days.The rest they say is history.

Have a word with yourself, 6 foot isn't a requirement, and any woman specifying as such deserves to miss out on what you can offer.Yeah but you’re 6 foot 8, women love tall men and you’d find it easy finding another woman.

Stop watching "dating experts" or the dating cliché videos on the internet, skewing your mind.Yeah but you’re 6 foot 8, women love tall men and you’d find it easy finding another woman. Spare a thought for me 5 foot 9.5 a short arse not even the minimum 6 foot required standard these days.
Backed up by statistics sadly. Women do look for taller men on dating sites.. It will take a me a while to find it but I've listened to a podcast with the CEO of one of the dating sites as the guest... highly interestingStop watching "dating experts" or the dating cliché videos on the internet, skewing your mind.
I'm 5'5

That's not short and it doesn't matter anyway, stop with the defeatist attitude.Yeah but you’re 6 foot 8, women love tall men and you’d find it easy finding another woman. Spare a thought for me 5 foot 9.5 a short arse not even the minimum 6 foot required standard these days.
No harm in looking, and no harm in deactivating it either. Probably worth giving yourself some time first to sort things out (get your mortgage and other functional things sorted out of the way) and then work out what you wantDecided to check out Facebook dating today just for the crack to see what it's all about as I've never felt the need to try a dating site in my life. Within a few hours I'd had a some 'Likes' (A few looked nice too) and I chickened out and deactivated my profile before replying, realising that after so many years in a relationship I just don't know how to even flirt or talk to a woman anymore as a single man. Hopefully it'll come with time and maybe it's too soon to be looking for curiosity got the better of me, oh well.
Is this common after being with the same person for so long? I feel a bit of a gimp for deactivating but it just felt so alien to me.
Currently going through a breakdown of my longterm relationship. We was together 12.5yrs got together when I was 19 and broke up a month ago at 32, things had gotten a bit stale and I found out that she'd been having an affair for the past 6 monthsThankfully no kids involved and not married but a shared mortgage which I'm planning to buy her out of.

Sorry to hear that, I know its easy to say but I wish people would be honest and say look I've found someone else lets call it a day, at least you know now. Your 32 though so just take it as it comes.Currently going through a breakdown of my longterm relationship.

Kin hell no logic to that. Hard to know what to say, stop thinking about it/her?(easier said than done I've been there), you will think about it for a while, it gets less and less important. Time will pass and it will get easier, maybe you meet someone else, just think that it wasn't meant to be.Thanks for the replies, a bit too much to reply to but a lot of food for thought!
My main priority is getting my mortgage sorted so that I can get her out of my life properly (She's moved back in with her mother and I'm living in the house), it couldn't have come at a worse time considering the state of the lending market but fingers crossed I can make it work, she's being very amicable about it all and as much as it pains me I'm having to keep her sweet so she doesn't turn it nasty.
I'm really hoping that at 32 with my situation in life (No kids, home owner etc) that moving on should be a breeze but I just don't want it at the moment, I think signing up to the dating site was more that I just wanted the affirmation from matches that I was somewhat desirable to someone out there...I realise that probably sounds mad and selfish but my head is still a mess about what's going on.
@gingergundog That's one of the worst bits about it all, she never said she was unhappy. I thought everything was sound and within in the next 12 months we stood to have a massive financial break as both or cars would be paid off and we had allsorts planned such as travelling, buying a camper or even extending the house. Even today she can't give me a clear answer as to why she didn't speak up so we could sort things before it came to this![]()
