How long after....

a super-long relationship can one go looking for another person?

what if youre still in love with that person?
how do you know if you still love them
or if youre just close and care about them alot?

well..its really up to u when u wanna start dating again after a breakup...when u feel comfortable about it i guess....but u mite not wanna start anything with anyone else if u are still really in love with ur ex...cuz that could cause sum problems later on...

but then again..there are sum exes that u'll always love cuz there was such a great relationship and strong bond between u two...u mite not love him the same way..but u'll still love the guy...do i make any sense...??..sorry if i'm confusing..

take ur time to think about it girly..lotsa luck..:384:
if ya need to talk..i'm always around...~

ya.. i guess..
i know i love him..
im pretty sure its the
"i-care-for-you-alot-and-i-love-you-cuz-youre-my-best-friend"
kinda way...
'cause the other way faded...over the past few months
but i dunno if it faded because he didnt love me like that anymore
or if it was mutual or what...
in a big way we havent been going out for about half a year..
its just i always hang out with him..
i dont wanna let go..
but i think thats just because im comfortable with him..

and thats why i come to the question of moving on..
should i forget about him for good now? (not in a mean way!!)



:Star:
PS thanx for listening, hun. :Power-P:

hmm.. that's a toughie..
the question about knowing if you're still in love with them? I've never been in love. but I'd assume that if you were truly in love with them, there will always be a special place for them in your heart. love can change in many different ways. it doesn't necessarily have to be romantic.

I do understand how it feels to be "comfortable" with a person. that's why I think if you were going to break up with a person, you need at least a couple of weeks without any contact with them so you can assure yourself that you can go on without him. I know a lot of people who have broken up and gotten back together with their significant others all too many times, simply because they got too comfortable with them. In my opinion, I don't think it's really possible for two people who were truly in love to break up and go on straight to being friends just like that unless there really wasn't all that much between them in the first place.

but you could also argue that I'm a naive, inexperienced, little one about love... :P

well, that was my 2 cents. I hope I gave some sort of insight.

ummm ... that is kinda hard

Well it kinda depends on how long ago u broke up w/ him ... if it was just recent (like a couple of weeks) and ur still thinking about him ... it might not be such a good idea to get into other relationship until ur sure ur have moved on and ur feelings for him are just neurtal. Because this isn't fair for u or for the new person ur seeing .... u won't be able to put all ur effort or feelings into this new person and the new person probably will be able to tell that ur not completely there for them.

But if u have come to the conclusion that u think ur ready .... (don't let anyone tell u if u are or aren't)... this is how u feel and u should feel completely confortable w/ the idea of moving on ... then i don't see why u shouldn't go and start seeing ppl.

Well good luck ... and don't stress about it :066:

1st off..
adam youre horrible!
besides i want to have your babies :319: *LOL*

anyway... its hard to not be in contact w/ him
we car pool
and have mutual friends.. who im starting to wonder about
cuz they always side with him...hehehe
weve been on a "break" since july
but since we see each other practically everyday
like you said joanne.. its sooo easy!!
its like we never broke up
cept the (forgive me for sounding cheezy) spark is gone....
and i guess we "finalized" everything about a month ago....
i guess its just that i was with him for more than three years
and its hard for me..
like i get jealous sometimes.. (hey jen... cyndi with an "i"...*L*)
i wanna move on..
but i just dont know if its right...

oh tinkerbell..

ADAM..haha..so much for being mr. sensitive..now u just proved glenda right!..=P~

hmmmm..*starfish*..haha..i feel weird calling u starfish..
but yeah..cuz u still hang out with him so much..its sorta as if u two were still together..i mean..when i did see u at the odd moments that i did..i thought u two were still together...but yeah..since u both are still so close and stuff..it is gonna be hard for u..and there will be jealousy..from u and from him when ur out with other people..(who's cyndi with an I?..sooo clueless..=P)..

moving on..do u want to move on?..are u not sure if u want to or not?..or are u not sure if u should?..if u want to do it..go for it..but if u still question whether u want to or not..then think some more..and if ur not sure if u should?..that sorta means u want to move on..so go for it..at this point..there is no should or should not..its all up to u babe~

I think that this phrase was put improperly itself, one should never ever, especially after a long relationship go looking for someone...

Fate plays its cards well, if something else is meant to be, it will come to you.

well, it takes half the time you dated the person to get over them according to my dad.
so, you dated a year, in 6 months you should be over them, and then you can date someone else.
So, go get some booty!

An observer can't set a date and time for you.
You'll know when you're ready to move on when it feels right.
