MyTeddyBear Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 My bf recently broke up with me.(see thread) Tonight I was asked out on a date for this weekend. It's very tempting . . . but will I end hurting myself? Obviously I'm not over my bf and I have hopes of getting back, but I say what the hell? I'm sick of sitting around feeling sorry for myself. what should I do? Link to comment
LostInMyThoughts Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 My bf recently broke up with me.(see thread) Tonight I was asked out on a date for this weekend. It's very tempting . . . but will I end hurting myself? Obviously I'm not over my bf and I have hopes of getting back, but I say what the hell? I'm sick of sitting around feeling sorry for myself. what should I do? Well can you go out and not talk about your ex boyfriend and your past relationship? Can you have fun, but keep things light and friendly? If so, I say go for it. It could be a hell of a lot of fun. Just make sure you have your "escape" plan. Link to comment
friscodj Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Hey MTB- Well, I read your first post. You certainly sound torn and you just posted yesterday... I don't know, tough call, I'd say kindly decline the date and spend some time pampering yourself and/or with your kids or good friends...I think that date will hurt you more than it will help you at this point...

Donster Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 It depends on how recent your break up was. If you dont think you are ready, don't force it. I'm in the same boat as you right now...but broke up with my ex two months ago, just starting to get into the dating game, but trying not to go in with any expectations other than to have a good time getting to know people.

Scout Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Also, do you find this other guy attractive at all? Not just physically, but mentally, etc. If you think he's someone you might normally be interested in if you weren't going through a break up, it might not hurt to give a date a chance. Keep it light, though, and don't talk about your ex at all. Link to comment
Griever Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I would say get some closure first be absolute postive that it is over. AND BE TRUE to youreself not the stupid hope thingy i had it 2 Second its youre life now you do what you want to do!!. Since i gained myself again i started the girl scene again this is a great, change of pass of the sobbing but dont do it unless you pretty much recovered and are youre fun self again. i mean think about the other ppl feelings put youreself in there postion. First of you need to remember that there us no ''us'' with the ex, you just do what you want to do and what makes you feel good. But hey thats just my oppion Anyhows i hope it turns out the best for you !! Link to comment
