Angeleyez2583 Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 The flirting keeps happening... It's funny because I like it, but I know I only have to put up with it for about 3 more weeks. Then he will be out of my life till he helps me move. To make the issue even funnier, before an exam, the ex and I were sitting in class and saw a mutual friend of ours whom I find attractive. As he walked by my ex goes, "have you seen his brother, he looks like his twin.." so I say "OOOHHH rEALLLLYYYY".. the tone that says... wow... this guy's cute and it's amazing he has a brother that could look as good as him. Needless to say, the ex goes and smacks me with a practice exam he had been studying from. This made my whole day. He was jealous, and I loved it! So anyway, I have been talking to a new guy. I don't know what my ex's deal is, (three factors come out of his actions: 1) he is needing a break until the semester is over 2) wants to test me to see if I am done with drinking 3) he really only wants to be friends) I'm going with number 3 just because not only does it not get my hopes up, it helps me to get over him even more. Anyway, I hung out w/ the new guy last night. It's not the same, and it doesn't feel at all comfortable. (He kept trying to get close to me, and I would just not respond). I know this is typical with new guys after a break up, but I don't know if I should get involved. I don't want to hurt this guy like I've been hurt, or jump into sometime I know I am def. not ready for.
Merin Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 If your not ready to get into another relationship (and from what you've said you're not) then I would keep things casual with anyone you hang out with know what I mean? I'm a little unclear as to the status of your relationship with your EX? Are the 2 of you broke up or is this one of those situations where the 2 of you decided to "Take a break"? IF this is a "Break" (which on a sidenote I personally don't buy into or believe in taking them) but I digress... IF it is a "Break" and not a Break up.. and you're really hoping to get back together with your BF/Uh.. EXBF then I wouldn't start dating anyone for anything but a casual thing (IF again the 2 of you are on a break but agreed to see other people during this time) Damn.. LOL I don't really know if this is a Break or a Break up... but IMO a "Break" isn't a good thing because yeah the lines get blurred and people become uncertain as to what is okay, what isn't and if they do this, that, the other will it make the chances of getting back together less likely.... Sorry, I'm on med's... Hope this made sense!
