You should never date a girl out of spite for another girl.
This seems simple and logical enough, but allow me to repeat myself. YOU SHOULD NEVER DATE SOMEONE OUT OF SPITE FOR SOMEONE ELSE. Now that we've cleared that up, I am going to explain why I find it necessary to stress this point. It is a fact that if you date a girl out of spite for another girl, that relationship is doomed from the jump. There are a myriad of reasons but I'll save you a diatribe and only list a few.
1. It is a fact you obviously are not fit to be in a relationship.
You feel empty and the last known entity to fill that void was the old battle ax. Hun, babe, bae, whatever the fuck you called the significant other you are no longer significant to filled that void perfectly, so it only seems right to fill that void with the likewise substitute Hold onto your butts, cause I'm about to make you shit your brain out of your asshole. Before you were in any relationship, you were a full, content being. You may have masturbated more frequently, but it wasn't until you found someone you could give yourself to did you begin to empty your vessel and fill it with all that made them special to you. Return to base, power cycle, unplug and plug yourself in and let yourself be full before you begin to give yourself to someone new. In the empty state you are in now, you will never have enough of yourself to give to a new relationship, nor will what they give you ever completely fill your emotional husk, and you will resent them for it.
2. It is a fact you resent that your previous fling didn't meet your standards.
Spite spells trouble in River City. If your current mate happens to not meet the standards you held for the dreaded ex then that resent you harbor oh so well, you emo crybaby, will shower onto your new boo thang like a hurricane of guilt and disappointment, and that's not fair to them.
3. It is a fact that it's not fair that they're the 2nd place trophy.
When you have been angered by a lover enough to date someone new simply to spite them, you are settling. You didn't receive closure and still hold your prior in a high regard. Something new comes along giving you all the affection and spark that died out of the last flame, and although you know you wish you had the gold medal you trained so hard for, you slipped on the balance beam when that shiny silver medal, all new and pretty, caught your eye. Happy to be on the podium yet all the same upset you didn't repeat your last championship run. You'll let the fire of regret and poor decision making eat you alive until the next thing you know you stop training altogether and appear on Dancing With The Stars only to lose to that sassy chick from Bad Girls Club. Next thing you know you'll be doing backflips for Vine loops hoping to make a comeback someday.
Don't make my mistakes, let yourself be ok with yourself first before you open your heart to new possibilities. You'll destroy something that may have been salvageable and at the same time tarnish what could possibly have been the next great romance, but that's purely a matter of relevance.
