Is there an acceptable waiting period after a breakup...?

Before you start imagining or having thoughts of seeing other people?
You see, my guy and I broke up in November and I have been very adamant that I am [i][b]not[/b][/i] interested in seeing anyone, or starting anything new.
I recognize that I need time to do some healing, and to figure myself out before I even [i]think[/i] of dating again.
I assumed this would take some time, perhaps even a year or two…
The thing is, yesterday while at work, a man came in whom I haven’t seen for a long time (he is a regular customer, but I have been away from work) and he made it clear he very happy to see me back. AND I GOT SOME BUTTERFLIES!!!!
We had fun chatting and flirting, and I enjoyed it!

Now, I find myself looking forward to the next time he comes in….and this surprises me….it really does.
I did not expect to have these kinds of thoughts for a LONG time yet….?
Doesn’t it seem too soon???
Uuuurrrggghhhh why do I have to be such a frikken [i]girl[/i]!????!

No such thing as too soon. Things happen and you got butterflies. That’s great and your body and head were cool with it. See what happens and enjoy it. Sometimes physical injuries heal more quickly than expected. It’s the same with your heart
