    ok, so me and my ex have been broken up for over a month now, but we were together for a year and 3 months.. there's this new guy, that is younger than me and shorter than me...which is not what i'm used to, that i'm really starting to fall for. he's so weird and crazy but that's what i like about him... he makes me happy when we're together... and things are just amazing. i'm just afraid of making anything official until i know for sure...100% that i'm over my ex. is that a smart decision... i think so, i'm just afraid of waiting too long and pushing the new guy away (i've also known this "new guy" for a little over a year...supposedly he liked me last year but didn't try anything since i was with my ex. now things are happening and im confused...please help)

    You know what, I say go for it! Really the only way you'll totally get over your ex is by moving on, which is what you would be doing... I went out with my ex for a year a 2 months, I know just how attached you can get... but there is no use shielding yourself from other possibilities... Put your heart out there, but keep it a safe distance from heartbreak at the same time, i know what you're going through... and who cares if he's weird and crazy, you like him so go for it! be weird and crazy together! that's the fun thing!... there's no need to be 100% sure before you move on, just close to 75 or 80... trust me, you'll feel a lot better if you just move on with this other guy

    i say go for it too. he might even get you 100% over your ex. and it sounds like you really like him so you might end up kicking yourself for letting him go by

    Wow, my ex and I were together the same amount of time as u and ur ex (1 year & 3 months) I guess u can say for awhile we had something special but you're not going to be completely sure if you've moved on until you've made an attempt to fill the position he once did with a new guy.

    At least thats how I knew i was completely over my ex because now my bf and i have been together for only about 2 months but things are going pretty well for the moment.

    You know it's right when he loves you for no reasons. Accepts you for who you really are and never leaves you in times of troubles. Love never talks about money and faces. It talks about the heart. If you'll stay the same and never change but someone still loves you, then I could say that it is the right one. Love without a doubt and do the best for you to stay and be loved.

    loves you for no reasons..? you know i hate that question... [why do you love me?]... answer because so and so... you say everything you have in your heart... and she's not content... she asks another time.. and you remember your answer and this time say no reason, i just do... she's still not happy... grr... lol but go for the new guy. give him a chance and it'll probably be the best thing you've got going on in your life. don't dwell on the past...
