ryan152 Posted November 21, 2010 Posted November 21, 2010 It has been 3 months since my ex girlfriend and me broke up for college. The reasons we broke up is for college and to make sure we were right for each other. We were best friends for 2 years, and then dated for 16 months. It is 5 hour long distance. We aren't the type of people to hook-up or get in a relationship spontaneously, it took a long time originally for us to start. I want to keep her in my life. Even if she does find someone better. I don't want to lose having her. I know that I am obviously still in love with her, but I guess I am scared of falling out of love with her. I worry that I will never love her again or I guess I might be scared of whatever feeling I will have toward her once I have moved on. Even though I am scared, she has been my support for 3 years, and I want her as a friend. Even before we started dating I would text her all the time, and now I still do that. Thats pretty much the majority of the stuff I can think about. I feel a lot better towards our situations after a had like an anxiety attack where it all got flushed out. I think I can manage being her friend. 98% of the time I am okay with her being with someone else. I even want to start dating other people. Any advice on my situation? And if I start dating other people will I still be able to be her friend without causing my mental anguish? Thanks
Don Ho Posted November 21, 2010 Posted November 21, 2010 In an ideal world, sure. But it's not. I think once she finds someone else you'll find you dont "fit" in her life anymore. Once you meet someone else, you probably won't care if she's in your life and your new woman probably won't like it. I don't think you'd be so "ok" with it if you new some other guy was having sex with her. I think it's best for you to move on.
