I'm almost like baffled. After a year of being with a borderline and bipolar girl I almost feel like I don't deserve this. The fuck is this feeling? I'm not sure if anything will happen between me and this girl, but I don't want to fuck anything up if it does.
Its not my self esteem is low, its almost like I feel I'm not good enough to be with a mentally healthy person at this point, after the breakup. I don't have any mental health issues, at least that I'm aware of, because I've been to therapy (not since the breakup though). But this feeling is really fucking nagging at me, and I don't want it to fuck things up. Its almost like I'm mentally scarred or something.

Don't you think it's a little soon to be seeing other people? You guys only broke up a week ago.. People don't normally move on that quickly

She started seeing and fucking some dude the literal day after. I felt so fucking bad that day. But I'm essentially just trying to push this shit out of my head, so I started talking to girls.

>implying there's some sort of guideline for how soon you can start seeing other people
if he's ready to move on then it's his call.
just go with the flow OP. girl seems into you. that's a good thing.
That is what being with a borderline person does to you. I know from experience. You just need to take a breather, keep things casual, and just chill for a bit.
A LOT of people need therapy after ending a relationship with a borderline. I can't say whether or not you will, but if the feeling persists, then I'd advise it.

the fuck is wrong with me?
you need personal time before you start dating again, sounds like
going through the same thing

I tried dating really quickly after a bad breakup and it didn't go well. If you're still working through those feelings you might not be ready for something new. The whole "get over her by getting under someone else" thing didn't work for me either
Very talented indeed.

>7/10
>8/10
Bullshit.
>>16757754
>7/10 FACE
>8/10 BODY
What is the issue.

So what do I do? Despite what I'm going through, I'm still really interested in this grill, and she seems to feel the same.
>>16757308
This feeling will pass. Your self-confidence is shit because you have stayed with that crazy moron for so long.
Don't beat yourself up, some people stay 30 years with a crazy nutjob.
Be thankful you only put in 3, and move on. Be happy.

tell her what your deal is and that you like her and don't want to waste this opportunity and ask her to be understanding
put it in positive terms, obviously
