im more depressed after breaking FA and being successful

after breaking up with my ex of 4 years i went into downward spiral. went into debt. went FA mode, playing video games all day with no care in the world. hardly seeing daylight

now i have a successful business which is growing month by month, and a girl who worships the ground i walk on who would do anything i told her to and swallowed my jizz with a smile after pounding her just last sunday

yet i feel way more empty than when i was in my FA phase. cuddling and positive affirmations from her feel good but dont last long, most the time i always ignore her and would prefer to be left alone. the more money i make the more empty i feel

whatdo?

Sounds like there is some type of emptiness in your life that wasn't solved by $$$ and women. Seek help srs

In for advice on starting a business though, what do you do and how did you start?

there's a chit load of stuff i could attribute the emptiness to but others who have been through worse chit than me deal with it so idk. but i will never waste money on therapy or take any sort of pill so it is what it is

i wish i could give advice about my business but its totally niche and not replicable, it was a side thing while i was studying that i just fell into randomly by following people on twitter, i got lucky af.

Asks for advice, refuses to answer basic questions. Nothing is not replicable.

Sounds like you seek a lot of external validation to build and maintain your self-esteem. Fix that, bub.

So you're asking strangers on the internet to play therapist for you instead. Okay.

Go on about what you think you could attribute the emptiness to?

& give us some deets on the business.

Have you ever considered the possibility that it has nothing to do with the relationship? You seem to be on your purpose, not sure why an ex would bring about these feelings.

Sounds like you dont really love her
Sounds like you arnt enjoying the money you are making

Start spending your money on things you actually want and use it as a tool to meet new people who you have things in common with. You can never be too rich in friends.

OP you downplay your business achievements and dismiss the reasons for your emptiness, and in do doing you feel guilty for having those feelings in the first place because you tell yourself 'others have it way worse than me, I don't deserve to complain', and then you hate yourself for feeling the way you fee because you believe your feelings are unjustified.

The first step is to accept that everyone has **** and even though we're comparatively better off than others, doesn't mean that your struggles are less significant to you. Accept your feelings are justified, then you will feel a little better.

Talking to someone about it is the only way you can address this. You say it's a waste of money but how the fuk is it a waste if it's going to improve your quality of life srs??

Have some therapy. There is a reason you are feeling like this. Will go back to your childhood.
