..... It wasn't a bad date by any means. But I'm not ready. I don't know how people ARE ready this soon. We've been split 3 months, seen each other a few times. Been NC for about a month/6 weeks in total - not all at once. The most I've managed is 19 days.

 

I've known the guy I went on a (not really) a date with for about 6/8 months, as soon as he found out I was single he was asking me out. He's asked me out religiously, every time I've said no. Today, I was in a shopping centre and he was there by coincidence. He asked me to join him for coffee, I was at a loose end and agreed. I told him there was nothing in it, he said he just wanted to buy me coffee.

 

In 6 months time when my head is at a different place, it might be different. This man is HOT, he goes to the gym religiously. My ex was the polar opposite. But my heart is still with him. I had a good time, he made me laugh, but no. I'm not ready to put myself back out there. Plus this guy is a bit of a player and I know I'd get hurt again.

 

BUT I'm taking this as a positive step. I went out with someone else, I had coffee with someone else, I laughed with another man. Onwards and upwards and day 2 NC for the FOURTH time ?

I know the feel, my self having trouble accepting anyone, I begged and pleaded after the break up and lost all chances, in fact she was going to come back and she didn't cuz of me pushing and forcing her back which freaked her out.

 

I am on day 0 of NC it starts tomorrow, to be honest, I want to move on in NC, if she come back I will be more stable and less needy, if she don't I will carry on, day after day I will gain my self respect back.

I've been debating whether or not to start dating again (been broken up ~6 weeks), but the thought turns my stomach.. Think I'm gonna need quite a bit more time :( So yah, I totally know what you mean! Still, I'm glad you went for coffee with him. It's a good distraction and maybe a confidence booster :)
