I've never been dumped before.
Okay it was quite a new relationship (3 months) but he was an absolute hottie in my eyes. Gutted. He's being really nice about it, saying he feels like we are more friends & he still wants to see me and then he left and text me saying he will ring tomorrow.

Trouble is as much as I want to see him I feel this is not fair on myself.

What should I do as a newly dumped single girl?
I'm already planning to gategrash a friend of a friends party celebrations tonight, but I'm worried I'm going to get drunk and cry and ruin everyones night.

Ideas please?

Just don't get to drunk tonight! Nothing better than going out on the pull when you've been dumped, apparently. I haven't been dumped yet, but we shal;l give it time!

Seeming it was only 3 month relationship, I wouldn't get to worked up about it. Maybe his right, you are more friends, so keep it that way. At the end of the day, you don't need a boyfriend - but friends are always good.

you sound like you're handling it really well. you are well within your rights not to want to do the matey thing if it's too hard. maybe it will get easier and you'll want to.

i think that you should go out and be with your friends. ring your best friend and tell her what's happened so she knows to be extra-nice to you and she can let other people know not to put a foot in it, and also so she knows not to let you get shitfaced. shitfaced = being That Girl crying at the end (i speak with such authority because whenever i've had upsetting news, i've gone out and got horrifically drunk then behaved appallingly and am still apologising for some drunken escapades - like ruining my friend's book launch cos i was drinking to forget that my grandma had just been diagnosed with cancer- baaaaaaad times!! )

i just read on the 'say something you can't say to their face' thread (something like) "i am thinking of you and laughing. and not in a good way". HA!

Haha yeah I'm hoping not to get too drunk. I'm not really in the mood for pulling anyone, plus my ex seems to know pretty much everyone who hangs out at the places we go in Leeds, so if I did pull I think it would get back to him pretty quick and I don't want to come off like a desperate tart.

oh, i didn't spot you're leeds lass! greetings from wakefield!

as i see it you have two choices, then:
1) come to shaky wakey and go to escobar with the cool cats
2) play my fave Guaranteed Lolz game and go to Flares near Leeds train station and play 'pull the fugliest old man you can find' game [extra points for funky chicken-dancers]. okay, you'll have to forfeit the 'don't get shitfaced' rule, but you'll be too busy with the game to think about heartbreak! and think of all them hunks.
