should i go out with someone so soon after? how


Question Posted Thursday February 25 2010, 5:49 pm

i recently got out of over a year and a half relationship tuesday. it was the happiest time of my life but he was a total jerk and i never realized it, my friends convinced me. he used me, cheated on me and broke me down. people keep saying the best way to get over him is to go out with someone else.. i dont really want a boyfriend right now, i still love my ex. but my friend wants to set me up with this guy that is honestly what iv always wanted in a guy and more in looks, hobbys, intrests and outgoingness but iv never met him and my friend wont be able to come when we meet. im still close with my ex even though he was an ass were staying good friends only. should i give the guy a chance or is it too soon, i want to wait but at the same time i need comfort what should i do? do you think its ok if i stay good friends with my ex too? we were bestfriends and instantly liked eachother when we met. 16/f

Jumping into another relationship RIGHT after you just got out of one is NOT the answer. Don't ever let someone tell you that.


A year and a half is a good chunk of time to be with someone and if you just rush into another relationship well the chances of it not working out are more on the high side then it is low. You should give yourself time to move on, Focus on your happiness, Spend time with friends and family and just chill out for awhile. Tuesday was only 2 days ago...and usually it's good to wait more than two days before you decide to date someone else. Even more than a week...In my opinion a good month is a decent amount of time. (Depending on how long you've been in a relationship) Also, I know you said you have always wanted a guy more in looks but looks are not everything and there is so much more to a person then their appearance. Relax, There is no rush to dating and being with someone isn't a game or a race.

heyy, well i think that you probably could stay friends with your ex, but there is some things you might have to watch out about what you say, like if hes the jealous type i wouldnt bring up the other guy right away. and trust me dont pushh yourself into going out with someone just because your friend thinks thats best for you. If you and the ohter guy are meant to be..you will go out eventually. doesnt have to be now. so if i were you i would just hang out with him and become friends and go from there. dont rush things you just got out of a seiorus relationship that probbaly aused alot of pain.:/
hope things work out!:D
