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

Do you feel like it’s time meet other people? I mean if you just ended a relationship a month ago I would say try focusing on yourself for a little but that is up to you and how ready you’re to move on 😊

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

For me I do think it’s time to meet other people but like, more to make friends and meet new people in general (toxic relationship, I have 2 friends currently who live no where near me, they’re my best friends but I am not their best friend LOL). But yeah no I’ve been trying to focus on myself and I have been, I’ve met & hung out w 2 other guys already that went no where. I am definitely ready to move on just not into something super serious again, which I just need to communicate

^^^ she’s right. a month into being single, i wanted to be a gf again at any cost. four months now, and im settling into it and being wise about who i flirt with. men are surprisingly easy to rizz up, and i accidentally led on two different guys just trying to flirt aimlessly and now i feel like a dick bc i rejected them both when they asked me out :( a little rebound is fine, but be smart about it and take time to be single before jumping into another relationship. i get it tho. i really do

i love you, i get it, and you need more time. you WILL crash and burn a good thing with him if you try to jump in too soon. liked this guy, wanted to date him super bad, as soon as he asked me out i panicked, realized i wasn’t ready, and had to totally cut him off. if id just waited a couple more months, maybe things would’ve been fine

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 :/

Then go for it 😊 I’m sorry I’m just trying to help as much as I can 😭 I guess my opinion doesn’t mean much because I’ve never been in a relationship 💔
