Carry on as that's the best way to move on in my opinion

Are you going on a date with that other bloke? ( the one you mentioned in your other thread )

And you continue to dwell and make justifications why you are dwelling.
It does not matter the location of the dwelling it matters that it is still happening.

Not to be nit-picky, but the expression is "blind sided" as in, "it came in from my blind side". Quarterbacks tend to get nailed when they are hit in their blind side, because they couldn't see the hit coming. There's a movie called "The Blind Side", which uses the expression in the title.

I've made similar mistakes in my day and was happy to understand what the correct phrasing was. Sorry for hijacking the thread.

Wait, what? A week ago you broke up and you are already moving on to the point to be able to date again?


That was quick ... Good for you ... I guess you weren't really much into the ex anyway. Or were you only together for a short time?

Its not that I didn't love my ex, I really do/did, just that in the last weeks or so I wasn't really a priority to him at all. I talked to him about communicating more (seeing as it was a long distance), he said he would and continued doing the exact same thing. Maybe I'm used to not having him there much? idk, I was really broken up for a week, crying, crushing sadness etc. We only talked for 6 months, I felt a connection to him the way I felt w/my 1st love. Oh well live and learn I guess.

I guess I thought he would fight to have me in his life. Anyways it did reveal he had been unhappy for awhile, something he never told me, which really wasn't fair to me.

Well, as Mae West (?) said, the best way to get over a man is to get under a new man? Not sure if that's what you mean by "casual" dating so I may be bit off here!

Why would you set up a situation where he has to fight to have you in his life?
