<human>: *Same breakup as the posts [here (10 days in)] and [here (5 days in)](

It's been three weeks. Well, more precisely, 23 days. In that time I've deleted her on facebook (though saving the over 44000-word conversation we had as some kind of archive deep in my computer), deleted her number, and generally kept no contact other than very formally (and coldly) wishing her a happy birthday last week. 

I've started both an OKCupid and a Tinder, and I've been having conversations with girls on both, most of which have been pleasant experiences. I haven't gone on any dates, but this girl I've been texting from OKC seems interested and I could go for some companionship.  

I'm still hurting. My life still has its ups and downs, and it's getting really hard to see the good parts of being single. At my absolute lowest, though I don't act on it, I very much feel that I want her back (even though reading through  my past posts will have you convinced it's a bad idea). However, I acknowledge that this is most likely me missing the *companionship* instead of just missing her.

Fuck being single. No really, FUCK being single. Call me a serial monogamist, but I ENJOY having someone around to call my own. Someone to hang out with constantly, someone I can randomly text about how their day is going. My friends all stick to the sage advice of "it's better to be single than in a shitty relationship", but honestly I hate sleeping alone. I hate not having someone to cuddle with. Dreaming of her then waking up alone in the bed we shared is NOT a pleasant way to start the day.

I'm not really sure what my question is. I think I just want to know how long my life is going to be shitty like this, and how long it'll be before I know that my future relationships aren't rebounds.

Provide a brief overview of the text.
<bot>: I'm still hurting from my breakup 3 weeks ago, I want to get over her and on with my life. Fuck being single.
