Hard to tell. I'd suggest settling whatever it is with your brother first. Fighting among siblings is unattractive. Settle it like adults and perhaps he'll take interest in you. Ignore whether or not he likes you, consider that he IS your brothers friend. You need to be friends with your brother too if you don't want to cause a probelmatic relationship, that will only end in him hate being the "middle man" in it all. I'd suggest waiting to even consider him (sorry for the poor grammar)

Personally, i never talk to my ex's. Makes life 10x easier.

Bingo. He is probably afraid of that, you have to show him that awkward situations are FUN... and they let you recall old memories of when you felt stupid. They are fun stories to tell, so getting into awkward weird situations are tough at first, but in the end great to fall back on for personal advice.

See I couldn't date a shy girl. They don't interest me. Make sure you are REALLY interested in this guy, because shy guys are hard to break... and to be honest, if this is his first relationship, you might see him change halfway through into a completely different person... better or worse, thats for you to find out.

When you hit the restart button on your computer it doesn't solve ALL the problems... but it does seem to clear the hickups. Make sure you are still prepared for the hickups. And I'm glad the NC has been helping. it really does help a lot.

Sweet nights sail on by. Long talks when we have other things on our minds. But you sing to me as you talk about life and your past maybe we'll see the deep other side of one another, and perhaps it will last. Even if it does not and we fail hard I don't mind grey skies. Its the falling and failing while flailing you are arms about it's when your toes break and knees give out. I'll risk a few scars and keep letting you sing. So I'll take this one on and sail these rocky seas. Whether its hot or cold, small or bold, its worth it. I'll sail with you. I'll sail with you.

Excellent. That is what I'll do. Thanks guys.

So I broke up with my ex of 3 years about 4 months ago. It was an easy break-up in that it was semi-mutual. So I've recently been meeting up with this other girl. She and I have had a great time. Is it too soon? I'm positive I am moved on from my ex. I've relearned a large chunk of my life and am loving it. Is it cruel to my ex? I sort of told myself I wasn't going to get into a relationship again while I was in school... but this girl is really interesting. I dunno if it would be right for me to date her or not... I know that if I said something about dating, we would fall into it... I just feel that timing... and the things she says... and the time she takes to spend time with me, would lead us into a relationship. I just don't know if its the right thing for me to do. I don't know if I've thoroughly done enough self-growth... while all at the same time I feel kind of alone. I just don't know what it is I thoroughly want. Should I test the waters again? or worry about if its hot or cold later on in my life?
