severe depression and missing my ex gf

hello, I’m new here. Not really sure how this works. It was suggested to me.

I am 55 year old man in good health, good shape, financially stable, usually have no problem attracting women, but same thing always happens I want what I can’t have and I don’t want what I have. So once I meet a girl and fall in love and she falls in love with me I stop wanting her and go to porn. Porn has ruined my life. I don’t know how to deal with it.

i recently broke up with my girlfriend she was absolutely beautiful, young, just perfect in every way just like the porn I watch. We dated for almost a year but after about three or four months I do what I always do and it killed the relationship. Now I’m so depressed I can’t work I can’t sleep I can’t do anything, all I think about is wanting her back and she hates me. I know I need to move on but I just can’t seem to, and I know I need to get my addiction under control. But I don’t know how.

Friend, to get out of this you must seek professional help, a therapist and recognize that if something hurts me, I have to leave it and put an attitude to life. A bear hug.

it`s not a forum to be critical of anyone no matter what the issues are.

So, it sounds like you’re that guy who always thinks the grass is greener on the other side, maybe?
