Guuuys I literally just want to dm this guy I have been into for years so bad. The thought of it makes my stomach drop. I broke up w my ex just over a month ago but I don’t think I’m ready for another relationship so I haven’t dm’d him yetttt

Like it’s so weird because he’s not even super attractive imo but we used to work together & we just got along, had good conversation & joked around it was just smooth. But idk. I followed him on Instagram after breaking up w my ex but he doesn’t post or anything even so I have no clue what he’s up to lately either or if he has a gf

diva i get it. you want a piece of man candy STAT. but the stakes are high here, okay? you’ve been pining after him for years??? you are not in a safe enough mindset this fresh out of a relationship to start things with him and have it work out reliably. what you CAN do, is slowly start things (but have another outlet for your rebound energy). flirt a little, but then hold back. bc i was in this position two months ago and came on wayyy too strong to a crush, then icked myself out from him :/

Also like I feel like the fact I still on occasion talk about my ex every once in awhile is telling that I’m not entirely over it and ready for another relationship if that makes sense, also I’m so busy idk if I’m able to like balance a relationship + school 🫩 I literally just want that man so bad

rebounding is a bitch. it had me texting men id ghosted two, three years ago. and ykw. it did help me get over my last relationship and feel better about myself, but i do NOT talk to those guys anymore. cost/benefit analysis. i would’ve been better off love bombing a random guy on bumble or something instead of tweaking out with guys i’ve known for years 😭 like that sounds bad but agh! it’s fun for three weeks and then it either a.) goes bad and you feel bad or b.) goes good and you panic :/
