AUG Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 So I started dating a guy back in August and I was not ready so we were dating on and off. We made our official date about a month ago. He broke up with me for something minor saying this relationship was unnecessary stress and that he feels I don't care for him. A day later, I saw an ex who was in town and we hooked up. I understand that we have broken up but I cannot help feeling guilty. What constitutes as cheating in my situation? Should I feel guilty and awful inside? Please advise.
crashvector Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 No, you were broken up. the guilt you feel is your heart's way of telling you "Too soon." I know what you mean though...after my exwife and I divorced, I waited 2 years, then tentatively went on a couple of dates I found on PlentyOfFish. I felt SOOO guilty. I went home and thought about it...and realized that if I still feel like I'm cheating on my ex, then I wasn't ready to date anyone. Give yourself another few months.
MyAngel Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 No need to feel guilty, you were broken up. Maybe give it a little while before seeing anyone else, to give your heart a break.
Samilia Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 Maybe you feel guilty about leading this guy on knowing you weren't ready for a relationship. The hook up is just the cherry.
Author AUG Posted December 29, 2012 Author Posted December 29, 2012 I did not lead him on. I truly loved him.
