How to heal after leaving a narcissist?

6 months ago I ended a relationship with my narcissistic ex gf, she's got a history of cheating on me and has continously belittled me and called me insecure for pointing her flirtatious behaviour towards other guys.

I finally found the strength to block her and have been enjoying some time on my own, but I do find it a bit difficult to move on and meet other girls. I feel as though it's hard for me to get attention from other girls and I do sometimes feel that it's hard to put myself out there, I've only every had 2 proper relationships in my life, is that normal? I've also been struggling with getting matches on dating apps recently.

I have been doing other things to make me happy and to get my confidence up for myself, for example I have a successful and full time career in IT and have managed to save up and buy myself a super car as I'm a huge car fanatic and I've always found it as something that makes me happy due to having a keen interest in it.

Another thing I am in the process of doing is setting up my own car detailing business which I intend to do part time for now and then see how it goes, I personally think this will keep me busy and is also something I have a passion for.

Am I going the right way in order to get my life back together after this abusive relationship?

Was your girlfriend diagnosed as narcissistic or did you just decide that’s what she was because she flirted with people?
At any rate… the way you write is as if you think this is a hook up site - your stable job and supercar etc.
Try other dating sites or just try talking to women. Some of them will like super cars

Build A life that you want, focus on yourself it’s far too soon to date again. Go out with friends spend some time alone thinking about what you want from a relationship.
