I Used Sex to Get Over My Ex but Now I Feel Worse Than Before!

I’ve started sleeping with escorts weekly now, just for some sexual relief, and I feel horrible.

Hey Dr NerdLove,

I feel at a loss now. Back in December, I had my longest relationship — well, not exactly relationship since we only went on 3 dates, but the longest romantic endeavor of my life. However, I tried to go in for a kiss on the third date which she rejected saying she needed to know me better and I decided to end things, in a knee-jerk reaction. Well, I realized that was a mistake and I spent the past couple months begging her to come back, and she eventually asked me to stop contacting her in January, but I still sent her some poems and letters, weekly, which she never responded to (I stopped this last week, however).

To say I feel empty is an understatement, I feel at a loss of purpose in life, I feel like I was before I met her, like a void and I don’t know how much longer I can go on. Well, I figured the only way to make me feel better was to sleep with other woman, that maybe if I slept with enough escorts I’d forget about her, but I was wrong. I remember the first time I did, and immediately after I finished I was just begging God to just end my life in this instant
