What's up everyone. If any of you read my posts over on the breakup board you would have seen that my girlfriend of 2 and a half years ended it about three weeks ago.

 

My ex was my first really serious relationship and let me preface what I'm about to get into with y'all that our relationship really wasn't great in its final 3-4 months or so. I had fallen out of love with her, but was staying with her simply because I was scared to hurt her. In hindsight, I see how dumb that was, but hey, you learn as you go, right?

 

Anyways, I now have a very confusing/frustrating situation on my hands. Heading out of my relationship, I told myself I would be single for a while. I wanted to be single. I'm in college and I wanted to enjoy myself without the stress of a relationship.

 

Well, nothing ever seems to go according to plan unforunately. The very night I broke up with my ex, I was out with my fraternity at a social event with a sorority. Honestly, I was already completely over my ex. Sadly, I had been over her for a month or so already. Anyways, I was still feeling crappy because I felt horrible for breaking her heart because I do care about her and I've always had a big heart and hate hurting people.

 

But that's when this new girl came into the picture. I had gotten to know her from class almost a year ago while I was still with my ex. We got along great and I can truly say I started to like her, which scared me so I cut all contact with her. I didn't see her again, for about 6 months or so, until this night when I was newly single once again.

 

Long story short, she tapped me on the shoulder and we picked up right where we left off. I got her number, we now talk a good amount, but not a crazy amount like a couple would. We both clearly like each other and we've hung out several times and she took me on her semi-formal last weekend.

 

This is why I'm so confused...I'm fighting my feelings for her for a couple of reasons. Number one, I had told myself I needed to be single for a while and a lot of my friends have stressed I need to relax for a while as well. Number two, I don't want this to just be a rebound. I've never understood why people jump directly from relationship to relationship, but here I am, pondering doing the same.
