i was broken up with a few weeks ago. it was a 5 year relationship and i knew the end was coming so i was already flirting with someone at my new job. anyway, we’re broken up now and i’m not even sure if i actually like this new guy but i sure do like the attention. i feel like i’m playing some game to get him to have a crush on me and it’s working. i keep having to remind myself that he’s a real person and my actions have consequences but i can’t help myself. i feel so hurt from my ex because i never felt wanted by him and i think now i’m reverting to my old ways of constantly getting people to like me and then sleeping with them to feel something. 
any advice from those in recovery that are experiencing a relapse like this?
