My ex (22F)and I (22F) have been broken up for 3 months. I thought she was the love of my life. After the breakup, I spent the first 2 months focusing on myself and isolating myself. During that time, I was at peace mentally, but I felt very lonely. Now, I'm super social and meeting new girls. A couple of girls have come into my life for dates. Everything is going fine, but I never feel the same way I did when I first met my ex. I met a very beautiful girl, we had something going on, and she wasn’t indifferent to me, but I ruined it. I can't talk to people around me about this. When I asked a friend about it, she told me, "You’re not missing your ex, you’re missing the time you spent with her and the habits." That made a lot of sense, but I still can't stop being angry at my ex. Sometimes I get depressed thinking, "What if she’s lonely, unhappy, or not in good health?" While I’m going through all of this, I don’t want to go on any more dates. I can't talk to the girls I go on dates with about this either. I just want to ask, are these feelings I’m having temporary? Am I really just missing the time spent with her, or do I still have feelings for her?

I’ve never been this miserable in a relationship before. There are very few people I can talk to about this, and I’m someone who struggles to manage my feelings. I want to make a decision without hurting other girls or making myself suffer more. I never wanted to hurt anyone's feelings. Please be kind to me and criticize my mistakes.
