text: Its normal to feel that way after heartache. But what happens if you don't do anything? Do you really want to always wonder if you let Mr. Right slip through your fingers? Its ok to love again. If you truly like him and its no just rebounding, go for it! Just date, get time to know this guy. Work on the friendship part. Hold off on intimacy. If he's really into you, he'll want to learn about you, and not just try to get into your pants. If its been a year of dating and he's still there, that is a guy that is interested in you more than sex! And totally sounds like a keeper. He prolly knows you just got hurt. Go slow, but go with him. Don't let the hurt from your ex hold you back. That is giving him control, and I know you don't want that! Hide in your house for a day. Morn that first love that went bad. Then wake up the next day with all of that behind you. Think positive things whenever you start feeling sad. Remind yourself that its just gonna get better. Start living for today, not letting yesterday hold you back.
