So around a few weeks back my girlfriend confessed to cheating on me for 3 weeks with a guy from her halls having just moved from uni. After much thought, talking to some close friends and posting a thread on here where I received some really good advice I ended things despite her genuine apologies and remorse. I had a horrible few days sulking but these past few days have been the first where the gut wrenching pain has started to subside and I've tried to focus on other positive things in my life.
I'm working on my gap year before uni and recently met this girl who works in a different department in the firm. We've talked a lot the last few days and since we're both in a new city where we don't really know many other people we've spent a fair bit of time together. I'm quite certain she likes me and something's definitely possible here. I feel a good connection and she'll be studying in London next year, which is where I'll be studying too, albeit at a different uni.
I think I like her, but I'm petrified. I don't want this to be a rebound kind of thing as this girl is terrific and I don't want to use her to get over my ex in any way. Plus I'm still raw from the break up and will probably have some trust issues for the near future. A part of me really wants to jump into things cause I'm getting all the right signals but I'm very very scared.
I'd really love some advice from people who've been through something similar on how they dealt with a new possible relationship after a breakup...its only been 25 days to be exact. Is it too soon? Is it genuinely possible for this to be real and not a 'using her to get over the ex' type of situation, cause as much as I despise what my ex did to me, I still miss her and am nowhere near over her completely.
