<human>: My girlfriend broke up with me about 6 weeks ago, yet only moved out 2 weeks ago. We had been together for over 7 years minus a small break during university.  Split due to 'falling out of love' and not having the same feelings as before.  

  At the time I took this like a champ and said it was ok. This was fine until she moved out a few weeks ago. I've gone from drinking once/twice a year to making it a regular each night, either with friends or frequently alone. Regardless, it ends with me being fucking miserable.

  Spoken to my ex-ex who I lost my virginity to and we were dating 15-17. She has just broken off her wedding within a few months of the ceremony as she has had a similar breakup. She feels nothing for me I am sure, yet I think I feel something idk.

She has told me that I'm lonely and trying to be with anyone at the moment. I have felt something here and confronted her about it and she's shot me down with 'you're just lonely atm, you don't mean that'.

  I've never been single since puberty and I'm finding it tough to move on. Do I want old ex's (who have matured and aged brilliantly since I've known them) or do I want my recent ex back who I spent the better part of a quarter of my life with.  

So confused right now. How do I be single? 

I was always very popular at school and very sociable, but I feel with these last 7 years I've lost it all and become very seclusive and awkward in social situations.

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: I am perpetually drunk until I can solve this. Not a great situation. Hit the gym, finish up with a bottle of wine. Rinse and repeat.
