Hey mate sorry to hear about your situation, i was in the same situation earlyer this year. My g/f of 4 years left me for a mate i went to high school with & my life turned to shit because of it i had no idea what to do and felt like nothing was worth it so yeh i know what your going through! It's a tough thing to go through & even tho things feel like nothing will get better trust me they do. Dude 23 isnt old you havnt run out of time to do anything i felt much the same when my life got turned upside down! I found what made me feel better was geting away from melbourne for a while i also changed jobs, got some new friends & just tried to change as much of my life as possable! Well i wish you all the best & hope stuff starts looking up for you!
Heya mate. Sorry to hear about all that. Its great you can rely on the ozcards family to cheer you up but I also think you should take advantage of the counsellors at your uni that I'm sure you have available to talk things out and thru. Sometimes you need to step up and get the help you need from someone out of the loop and qualified to help.
It can ALWAYS get better.
But take that step mate and its a step in the right direction. Confidential and the best thing you can do to get you back on track and happy again moving in the right direction.

I know theres things much worse, like losing a family member etc, Ive been there too but its a different feeling, Its not necessarily the pain its more the emptiness of whats left to be of the future. And the gf part is only a small part of the problems I'm having.
I have taken the steps to seeing someone about it all but sometimes its like they just sit there and nod as if they know how you feel when they hear it every day. I don't know it almost seems like any other person can do the listening.
I think I need to try and distance myself and not think about the bad things that have brought me down and concentrate on the positivs which I havn't been doing that much.

Hey mate....
Sorry to hear your going thorugh such tough times.. Like a lot of the others, I had a g/f do similar... Was seeing a guy/mate I work with behind my back for months (so I found out later)... We were together for a couple of years, so it hit pretty hard!!! To make matters worse, I had to work with them both after this... Lucky I'm in a higher position, so they had some pretty shitty jobs for a while!!!! Needless to say, I'm still working there and they've both gone... Anyway... I'm much better now... Have a new g/f (better than the cheating $#%#%&
) and things are great.... For a while there I couldn't see myself being so happy again, but now life's much better!!!! Just be thankful you found out the real person your g/f was before you got engaged....
If your job/uni is so bad as well, maybe defer uni and move to another state and work/live for a while... There a big world out there... Maybe new surrounding will do you good... New job, friends, house.... I don't know what industry you're in right now, but try a job behind a bar or some other hospitality job... Great social life... Always working with and around people.... Not the most 'serious' of jobs.. More of a social job.... Maybe its not for you, but who knows????
Good luck mate...
