Dating after relationship with an A
Hello all,
Since my break up with my XABF, I've focussed on myself, my business and my friends. I've taken a much needed and wonderful vacation to Roatan where I got eaten alive by mosquitos and gotten my scuba diving certification.
I've also recently started dating. I am by no means ready to contemplate a long term relationship with someone, but I'm not opposed to meeting new people.
I've noticed that things are different for me this time around. It feels like my ******** detector is working overtime. I take time to analyze every little thing...A lot! On the bright side, it forces me to go slowly and think of myself and my needs first.
However, I've also noticed that healthy interactions now feel weird or foreign to me. I have to pause and think "oh yes, that how well-ajusted adults act".
Has this ever happened to you?
