And the beat goes on… —

Day 4 of the single man diarys… Yes… i'm still single… no, i'm not regretting it yet. So its been 4 whole days since the split… the withdrawel symtoms are begining to kick in:

Symtom 1: Insomnia
Yeah… its hard to sleep… the one thing i'd wanted the most when i was with the ex was more room in the bed (we'd been sharing a single bed). Suddenly i have the whole bed to myself, and it really really feels like theres too much! For some reason, all these acres of bed space, make it really hard for me to get to sleep.

Symtom 2: Constant Talking

I didnt realise it at the time, but today i've been talking non stop about the ex… Its scary… i made the decision to end it, yet i cant stop talking about her. I'm very confused. I dont know if its my way of trying to justify all the hurt that i've caused the poor girl, but i can't stop going over the reasons in my head… unfortunatly these seem to be coming out of my mouth as well!

Symtom 3: Time Wasting
Hmmmm it seems the girlfreind used up more of my time than i realised. Suddenly i have hours of time on my hands that i have no idea what to do with… So far i've tried in vain to fill the slow hours with (among other things), computer games, surfing the net, chat rooms, watching films and drinking cider… yeah… me… *cider* its unusual… but its the only booze in the house since the only person that really drinks is our lodger tom, and hes a cider drinker. I have noticed however, that excessive cider consumption often helps with symtom number 1…

I'll keep you up to date with any other symtoms that occour as an when they appear…
