The body reacts to physical traumatic experiences by releasing adrenaline. The body does this so you don't feel the pain, but instead you feel an intense rush. All that adrenaline rushing through your body feels great. It's your body protecting yourself.

So...so why doesn't your brain do the same when you get your heart broken. That hurts, its physically traumatic, and has suffering involved. If I had to choose between getting my heart broken again or a shark attack...I would choose the shark cause I know at least that the shark really wanted me

But maybe one day I'll find that special woman, or I can forget her

Break-ups are not fight-or-flight situations, i.e. the continuation of your actual existence is not in immediate mortal, predatory or gravity-related danger. Adrenaline levels rise not only to give you a "rush", but also to improve your reflex time, muscle functions, heart rate, blood pressure, etc. in order to prepare you to either fight the imminent threat or run away from it. There's nothing to combat or flee from when your partner says they don't find you suitable to reproduce with.

We probably didn't evolve with the ability to respond to sex partners' rejection as an instinctual, predatory threat because 1- it isn't, and 2- up until fairly recently, whether a woman stays with you or not wasn't really up to her. In fact, fear of potential rejection could very well be why our species' history is rife with sex slavery, harems, arranged marriage, death as punishment for adultery, and deliberate exploitation of yet-to-be-coined Stockholm Syndrome.

There, there. *pat pat*

It gets better. But it will only get better when you stop living life for women.

Work on yourself, first. Get to the point where you can look in the mirror, and be glad that you're you, and not some other poor cunt.

Once you like yourself, other people will start doing the same.

Or don't. Learn or die; idgaf.

Dude I Feel U.
I lost my solemate a while back now (its been months) and I'm really in a spiraling downwards depression. Doing drugs just to get her face out of my head. a lot.
Im not gonna tell U it gets easier, because that would be a straight up lie. I doesnt.
So just make sure U have people around u, and a lot of ''action'' (no mater what it is, remember you are trying to overwrite your memories with her).BE be afraid to push yourself out of a comfort zone, but do it anywhays.
Good luck buddy, hope you don't end up like me

If you seriously think that a shark attack is in any way better than a break up you need to get your priories straight. Also, you're being melodramatic.
