Whether you need a place to vent, someone to hold you to No Contact, or need advice about what to do, we're here to help.
I have ended a 5 year relationship with a very selfish person whom I always was there for and he never appreciated it, nor did he try to improve himself. I was putting way more in than I was receiving, he worked less than half of the relationship and when he did he would spend the bill money on material things. Now that he has a job for a change he has decided to leave and whenever he does he moves on like right away, immediately he begins a search for someone else. I don't want to be like him because that is not the way that I heal but I want to be distracted too. How should I handle that? and move on to the point where I really don't care because I know deep down inside he is not the one for me and the progression of my life.

You have come to a good place for support and help.
I wish you all the luck in the world!
If we don't take time to heal, we just compound the hurt and continue to unconsciously pick the wrong people. Please consider getting some therapy in order to help you thru the grief process and heal from not just this relationship, but also from all the unhealed hurt that might be lingering. Therapy will also teach you how to take care of and put yourself first instead of doing too much for another person. And, therapy helps you rediscover who you are rebuild your sense of self & self-worth.
In order to have a healthy happy relationship with another person, we must first have that with ourselves. It's not so bad being by ourselves. And, being alone doesn't have to mean being lonely.
