My ex and I are just now officially ending everything-- no contact, no friends, no emails, no phone calls. I went to my friends to talk bout how I was feeling.

 

All my friends gave me some good advice, and happily told me what a terrible person my ex is.

 

Then last night I got a text from one female friend confessing her feelings for me, and from another, I got an invitation to casual sex.

 

Here's my dilemma, though.

 

My ex and I split in February but kept ambiguous feelings up until basically a couple days ago. The thing is that she's been dating and sleeping with people....but I haven't. I haven't been able to let go.

Take the healthy way, your heart will thank you in the long run. Don't miss out on the ego boost of these girls liking you, though! And don't burn bridges, maybe you should endeavor to explore the relationship you have with them until you're ready for something else. It's good to take your mind off your ex by trying out something new, but don't get lost in it.

 

I loved and adored my ex. She ran off with another guy, started sleeping with him right away. As she was sleeping with him at first, I could totally tell she regretted it, but she committed to him anyways.

 

So a few weeks later, I slept with a new girl, and it was nice and I don't regret it, but it didn't feel...right. So cold, no love. Honestly, I would have rather waited. Developed a stellar friendship with someone before going romantic.

 

So just give yourself time. You can't let go yet because you've kept "ambiguous feelings," and now that you've ended that you can finally start to move on. Take it slow, and take time to heal, don't jump into anything right away because it won't feel right.
