Okay so male M(36). Self employed. I work a lot. Went to an event 5 hrs away. Met a girl F(37). She introduced herself. I asked a ton of stupid questions; she answered all very very well. Every hard question (distance, actions in a relationship, religion, what she wants and likely more) she answered perfectly. Truthfully I wanted to get lucky or scare her off; but i turned out lucky because we ended up dating! Well long and short is, she wasn’t truthful. It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions and thoughts, but we unfortunately finally broke up.
As much as I want to vent. Give details, eradicate her presence, yell at her…the choice is to move on and simply know I did everything I could.
So. We ‘dated’ a year. But more so 6 months before we had issues. Last 6 have been …trying. We broke up a month ago and she turned super nasty. Anyway I’m curious on perspective of dating again. I’d say in a good relationship I should be grieving. However it was not. Breakup was a month ago and although I kinda wish it would work, every chance I’ve given has been shut down or she’s played the silent card and then blocked me from fb and phone lol. So we can’t even discuss. Chances over. I’m sad a bit, but how long is an acceptable grieving process. Could I enter a new relationship knowing mine was truly done 6 months ago although words spoken was a month ago?
Also what do people use to meet someone these days. I’m super jaded upon dating sites but in a small area it seems the only way to go
TL;dr. Where to meet people ?

Maybe apps where you have to pay to be on it like eharmony would be a good option for you. People are more serious daters on websites like that
There’s the grieving part after a relationship ends but there’s also time to reflect and just recalibrate.
Moving from one relationship to another kind of causes your life outside of relationships to die off. It’s important to have that life outside of a significant other imo.
