I Am No Longer Embarrassed To Use One Guy To Get Over Another One

My entire life, I've been the quintessential "nice girl," but it hasn't gotten me far. It seems that men don't care about feelings as much as I do, so why should I worry so much about theirs? I'm done tip-toeing around them.

1. Guys Don't Care As Much As I Think They Do

Using a guy as a rebound might actually make some men happy. It's the perfect scenario if they're not interested in a commitment or a long-term relationship. I used to think it was cruel to take advantage of a guy I didn't really like to get over someone else, but I've realized that as long as I'm truthful, it's a fair game.

2. If It's Casual, No One Is Getting Hurt

Communication is always vital, but as long as I make it clear from the start that it's not anything serious, it should be alright. Of course, I can't guarantee that the guy won't catch feelings. I might even surprise myself and begin to like him. As long as we're open about our feelings and keep track of where we both stand, it should be fine.

3. I'm Tired Of Being Pathetic

To stop obsessing over uninterested guys, I need to find a way to move on. However, trying to do so without any other distractions has not worked. To take my mind off the one I can't have, I need a new man in my life to focus on and snuggle with.

4. Sometimes It's The Only Way To Get Over Someone

I've discovered that getting over love becomes much easier when I decide to see someone else for a while. Even if it doesn't work out, it helps me get through the period of sadness that would otherwise be a difficult struggle. Although I'm usually not great at this, I've decided to jump in and take my chances.

5. Let's Be Real, Neither Guy Will Be Mad At It

I wish men thought as deeply as I do, but the truth is that very few of them do. The guy I'm trying to forget won't care since he barely knows me. On the other hand, the man I'm using to move on will get laid without any commitment. That doesn't sound like a bad deal, does it? I have to accept that men don't always think logically.

6. I'm Tired Of Always Worrying About Others When They Don't Return The Favor

It would amaze me if a man treated my emotions with the same delicacy that I extend to his. Whenever it comes to men, I tend to overanalyze my actions. They often act without considering the consequences, and now it's my turn to do the same. I'll play their game and match their moves.

7. It's Too Tough To Care So Much

My efforts are largely futile. When I agonize over how to behave, no one notices or cares. Everyone is busy living their own life, so I might as well have some fun. Perhaps everything will turn out better than I expect, and even if it doesn't, at least I was spontaneous.

8. I Need The Distraction So Badly

I'm occupied, but the challenge is that much of my work is flexible, allowing my thoughts to wander. As a result, the man I'm attempting to forget constantly occupies my mind. I'm skilled at multitasking mentally, so I'll take advantage of the day, find a new man, and move on with my life.

9. It'll Remind Me That I'm Worthy Of Attention

To be completely honest, my self-esteem needs a boost. I crave attention that reminds me of my attractiveness and desirability. Despite being a confident and independent woman, it's frustrating to feel invisible to men for so long. I am open to any guy who can make me feel like the hottest woman alive.

10. I Don't Care What People Think Of Me

Back in the day, I was anxious about other people's opinions of me, and it affected my choices. Nowadays, my priority is doing what's best for myself. I've come to realize that most people are too preoccupied with their own lives to care about mine.

11. Life Is Too Short To Have Such High Morals

In retrospect, I wish I had lowered my standards a long time ago. I was too rigid and serious, which prevented me from having fun. Now I know that it's okay to loosen up, have a rebound, and be truthful with myself.

12. I Don't Need To Be In Love To Enjoy Myself

My perception of relationships and intimacy was once incredibly romantic and idealistic. I believed in the notion of only engaging in sexual activities with someone I genuinely cared for. However, I now understand that this approach may leave me sexless for an extended period. This realization is disheartening, and I aspire to have fulfilling sexual encounters while I am still youthful.
