Its been a month since my breakup. We made a clean break and have had no contact. All my friends say that the best way to get over a heartache is to get under another man. Ha ha.. Thats so not me. They all say that as soon as I sleep with someone else I will forget about him. I don't wanna just sleep with someone but I would like to date again. I just dunno if I am ready?

Don't go the rebound route. It only leads to hurt and it's a shallow thing to do. If you have to ask if you're ready to date then you're not ready to date. Tell your friends they're idiots and make them buy you lunch. JK bout your friends being idiots. that was harsh wasn't it? Yeah, sorry bout that. You have great friends but they just give bad advice on occasion...how's that?

Everyone has there own way of getting over a relationship. It all comes down to if you think you're ready to getting a new relationship with someone. If your just out for friendship that is ok too.
You need to be the one deciding on whats best for you, be that a new boy friend or just friendship.
Emotions are strange things they get kicked up whenever you're in familiar situations so new relationships can trigger feels you're not expecting. This might be tough to handle if your not ready.
Take it slow and you'll get though things, the world doesn't standstill after a relationship ends, so just keep looking to the future. You never know the next guy by be the right guy for you.

thats a huge step to take, and I am sorry to hear about your former bf. Honestly I think moving away could help a lot. My best friend died when I was 17(right before high school senior year), and I was miserable for the next couple years because everything around I could still see my friend in my head sort of speak. I moved away at 20 to the east coast, and I really was able to put it behind me after that.

listen to your gut feeliong . It will tell you when you are "really " ready to date another nice guyt again. Just don't sleep with someboday because your friends tell you that is the besat way to do to get over somebody . No it is not it will make things more comlicated . Chill for a while and enjoy time alone

It sounds like you're ready.
When you begin thinking about other men, rather than dwelling on memories of your ex, chances are you're ready.
If you do begin dating, just be prepared to give the new guy(s) honesty and fairness. If you find you're not ready (you compare him to your ex, you worry about your ex finding out), then just tell the new guy you're not ready to date yet after all.
It sounds like you're looking to the future, though. So, I would say go for it. Good luck and have fun!

Your ready to date again if you go out with some one else and dont feel guilty as though you still owe the other person some thing.

Why not go out for coffee before having a real date? Ease into it.
Your friends are right about not having contact with your EX. Any contact will just be a set back.

I think a month is a good enough time to have "recovered". Now it's just a matter of time before you meet the next best man in your life.

if u are not 100% ready, dont date just yet. maybe deep down u still need more time to get over ur last breakup. dont get with a guy just to sleep with him. it will probably hurt the guys feelings and its knida slutty
