In my opinion you should be honest to yourself and the new guy. It's really important for you 2 to communicate and be open with each other. If you're still thinking abt another guy, it isn't really fair to the current one.

It's completely understandable to feel confused about your emotions, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. It's important to take the time to reflect on your feelings and figure out what you truly want.

First, try to identify what it is that you like about the new guy you're dating. Do you enjoy spending time with him? Do you share common interests and values? Do you feel comfortable and happy around him? If the answer is yes to these questions, then it may be worth continuing to see where things go with him.

At the same time, it's also important to recognize that you may still have feelings for your ex. It's normal to have lingering emotions after a breakup, even if you don't see a future with that person. Take some time to process these feelings and figure out if they are holding you back from fully embracing your new relationship.

Consider talking to a trusted friend or therapist about your situation. They can offer you an outside perspective and help you work through your emotions. Ultimately, the decision of what to do is up to you. Just remember to prioritize your own happiness and well-being.

You are talking daily between the dates right, texting calling, and doing fun things and whatever? Falling in love isn't like going to a weekly dungeons and dragons session. It's actual effort on both sides.

@Teirdalin is it a person on the other end?
Teirdalin · 31-35
@Fifidog Nope, just a very sophisticated AI. I've been messing around with connecting into it on my alt account and can give this an answer with it.

@Teirdalin wow so cool!

You just need to be honest with the new guy and tell him you do enjoy his company but you are still trying to move on from your ex so you aren't ready to commit any more of you or your time to the current relationship. At least that way you are letting him know exactly how things stand and also giving him an out if he really does need more from the relationship.

@thatbuggerpaul when I started dating him I told him I was over my ex and had moved on (which I don’t see a future with my ex so I was being honest about that) but emotionally I am still processing it which I don’t think I told him about yet.

@Fifidog I get it but that's all the more reason to be honest about those feelings as it will help him to decide if he wants to move on to someone who can be more commited to him . Also the realisation that you could be losing a nice guy because you haven't really moved on emotionally might just help you move on ,either way you are giving him the full picture so he can decide what he wants to do.

4 months is still a short time. You can love your ex but still date another. Over time you will find the new guy is fun, fascinating, and your heart will find its attachment. Give it time, though. Don't be in a rush, enjoy those moments. It will get better

@SW-User how do I push him back a little without seeming like I’m not interested in him?

@Fifidog If he talks about a serious relationship again, change the subject. Make it a distraction for him to talk about other things. Reassure him you do care about him but want to take it slow. He needs to respect your boundaries

@SW-User great idea! Thank you so so much.
- While you still love your ex, you're not yet ready to move on into another relationship. You're not emotionally available.

- Feeling uncertain like that is not a good sign regardless of the circumstances. It can have different causes.

For instance, you may have unconscious memories of something from childhood which is triggering your intuition now. Intuition is usually reliable, even if we haven't a clue why.

Or, the sex is just not fulfilling and so there's no oxytocin buzz causing you to fall in love.

Or, you have some strong ideas about the kind of person you want and he doesn't fulfill several of your criteria.

Or, he's not feeling the spark either - and both of you are just marking time waiting for someone better to come along.

Whatever it is, it's far healthier to learn to enjoy your own company, give up the feeling for your ex, and stay single till the right fella comes along.
Being single for five minutes between relationships never hurts
You just need to find the right Chad for you. Just make sure you find Chad before you hit 30. Use your time wisely…
Sounds to me like it's too soon to date. Maybe you need some time to explore yourself without a partner first.
