Broke up with my BF recently (1 week ago) and i've been hanging out with somebody else..who is completely different and refreshing I am aware that this is new so things might not stay the same..he said he wants to be with me and I do want to be with him even though I am not over my ex...I don't think I will ever get over him because we were together for so long...but I am afraid if I keep this guy waiting he might give up on me. What do I do?

Go out, allow yourself to get over your ex, trust me, it will happen. Just be yourself and let things flow as they should and throw the guilt away, you don't need it. Be HAPPY!

BE YOURSELF and be honest with the new guy. If you are worth waiting for, he will wait. Take things slow and learn to get to know each other well before making the mistakes you made in the past. Breaking up IS hard to do, but it is important that you expect the best from everyone and never settle for anything less. Take some time to get to know yourself again too. After a while, you may forget what you really liked to do because you were sharing time with someone else and may have been trying to make THEM happy. Good luck to ya!!! GaryT

Just my opinion, but you should wait a while before you get in another relationship. Rebound are never good. Think about it, you still feel stuff for the other guy. Would that be fair to this new man? You need to deal with the first relationship before you go into another otherwise you are taking the baggage of the previous one into the new one? Does that manke sense? All I am saying is allow yourself to heal, your heart is still broken. Once you' ve let him go then move on. If this guy really cares about you he will respect that. Plus be honest with him that you don't think its fair to start something with him while you still have feelings for the ex. He'll respect your honesty as well! Good Luck

Well, I think you need to take time out to really get over your ex and even if you don't completely, you need to give yourself a little time. If this new guy really likes you, he'll wait. So give yourself some time to resettle and things and see how it goes with the new guy afterwards.

I am almost in the same situation. I told the new guy that I wasn't ready yet because I wouldn't be able to put my whole heart into him. He told me he understands and that we can be real cool friends. I was up front with him right away and it helps. You will eventually get over him, time heals. You are worth waiting for. If he doesn't wait for you till you are competely ready, he isn't the one for you.

If you don't take any chances you will never fully live. The only way you'll know is id you try. I would go for it just make sure that you both are aware that you are coming from a broken relationship so you want to take it slow.....

well first off you should always give yourself time to get over an ex because you dont want this new guy to be nothing but a rebound. Plus, if he gives up on you then he wasnt meant to be anyways.

I can't believe that It is too fast for you to started a new relationship with another guy. I will never do that and it is impossible for me.
You might just keep this new guy like a friend and if he really loves you, he will wait for you when you are read for him.

No, you have only been single for a week. This guy may be a rebound. Right now you don't take risks you be careful. Plus if the new guy really likes you then he will wait.
