Zzyxx Posted February 17, 2016 Posted February 17, 2016 Hey everybody, I guess I could just use some straight talk here. After being officially single for almost two years (had one weird dating experience with my ex best friend that ghosted on me) I'd been dating someone for the past two months and it was super nice. Seemed to be going somewhere good, except for the fact that oh yeah, she wasn't quite over her ex. But she was working on it, she was upfront and honest about it, and we were having good times. Then she let's me know that she found out she's moving to a different country literally across the world. So yeah, obviously it's going to end soon, but she hasn't been given the move date yet (she's transferring for work, but the transfer was totally her desire, she WANTS to move, the company didn't want her to) so we agreed to keep dating until at least she finds out her move date which should be within the next week. At this point I'm a rational adult about it. I know we haven't been dating long enough for me to even enter into the equation, and she's not over her ex which means I'm probably a rebound fling, plus it will end soon so I should just enjoy it. But on the other hand, she keeps talking about how she likes me and and I'm such a great person and blah blah blah, so I can't help but start to feel a little resentful. It will end soon anyway, but I guess just hearing other people tell me to get over it would be helpful. That and I really liked her and rejection sucks 1
Satu Posted February 17, 2016 Posted February 17, 2016 I'll take your word for it that there's something very nice here, but you know yourself that this isn't meant to be. Maybe you can be long-distance friends if you want. You'll meet somebody else in the fulness of time and that will be nice too. “Benvolio: What sadness lengthens Romeo's hours?

Author Zzyxx Posted February 17, 2016 Author Posted February 17, 2016 Thank you! I really appreciate that! I guess it was hard getting a taste of what it's like to date again and have things go really well after having been single for years and the dating experiences I have be crap, and then it being like "oh yeah, bye!" but I guess that's life.
