2) When the bender ends, sign a one-month “no dating” contractA month. No dates, no “just grabbing a drink", no random sex, no late-night texting.
Why?
Because right after a breakup, the fastest move is to find a
cheap substitute. That substitute is rarely high quality. It’s just available.
And if you let yourself get used to low-grade women, you lose the ability to form real connections.
Here’s what usually happens when you don’t take this month:
- You start picking easy, cheap women
- You tolerate behavior you’d normally consider as annoying or sloppy.
- You start thinking that quality women are "too complicated", "want too much"
- You lose genuine connections and find yourself all alone
- You start glorifying the past with your ex as it seems much better than what you have now
