Question Posted Wednesday November 21 2007, 4:13 pm
I have an amazing boyfriend who loves me and cares about me and wants to be with me. The problem is that i still think about my ex sometimes because he was my first real boyfriend. Should I hold off on going into another relationship because of my ex or should I go for it and take a chance on this new relationship?
Adorkable answered Thursday November 22 2007, 7:00 pm: There will ALWAYS -let me repeat this- ALWAYS be feelings for the first guy/girl that you have your first relationship with. The problem is, you can't base your whole life on "well..if I'm not over him completely, should I wait or give this new person a chance?" Because then you could be missing out on someone even better. I say move on. Just don't judge your new relationship by thinking of the old one. I swear I should say some of this in the mirror lol Good luck -Adorkable [ Adorkable's advice column | Ask Adorkable A Question ]

If you still like your ex in "that" way, then I don't think you should have a boyfriend. It's unfair on him and you - because you'd be lying to him and yourself.
If things are going good with your boyfriend and you don't have "those" feelings for your ex, then by all means, carry on as you are.
Remember, you guys broke up for a reason. Don't let it keep holding you back. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]

But what sort of thoughts are you having?
If you are wishing you were still togeather then no, you shouldn't dating anyone else.
If you kinda miss him, but are happy and know it wasn't working and don't really want him back, then yes, you are ready to date.
