Denial and drinking

Only ever had one breakup that I was overly bothered about and to be honest I just continued with the plans we had made prior, I went to the movies alone followed by dinner. We remained friends after the event but it was a bit weird for a while.

It's just I've recently broke up with a my girlfriend and it's my first serious relationship and I honestly don't know what to do with myself. I feel dead inside.

In a seriousness, grieving is not a bad thing. Depending on how long you were together, this time may be longer than you want.
Mainly looking at the things you've learned from the relationship and things you didn't like from it as well. You also have to reflect on whether the relationship was bringing you down or building you up. Maybe you have gotten out of a poisonous relationship and you haven't realized it yet.
But reach out to your friends, talk and explain how you feel.
Breakups are the worse because it feels like you lose half of yourself, but hopefully next time you'll be more independent that the person only builds on your independence, so you don't fall into the same rut You're in now.

We ended mutually and she now keeps messaging me about wanting to get back together. It's getting rather annoying.

Habbo is so boring, and being at my computer brings back so many memories. I met her online and we met and lived together for like 7 months and anytime in between we'd skype continously, I spoke to her about everything as both a girlfriend and a friend and now both elements are gone, I honestly don't know what to do with myself.

I've known her for 11 months, it'll be a year in june took around 4 months to get to know eachother well and then dated her for 8 months. I know what mistakes I made with just mental problems which caused us arguments which I've said I'd get help with. This is going to sound really dumb but I only have a few friends and they arn't really talking to me because ever since I met this girl I pretty much ignored them from being so loved up and in our own little world, I messaged a friend earlier and he hasn't even bothered replying to me so it's just hard.

Sorry for the essays but I guess writing down my feelings helps somewhat and having people talk to me about it. It means alot to me, so thank you all.
