I wouldn’t rush into another relationship tbh.. I wouldn’t be able to.. would just hanging out with someone worsen things? I’m stressing because part of me still feels like I’m cheating and I’ve developed this guilty conscience after what happened between him and I. a guy wants to go on a walk with me in nature, I told him I’m going through this and he said take ur time and he gets it but part of me thinks maybe going out will take my mind off of it but another part of me thinks that maybe it will just make me miss him more.
Definitely hang out with people and try to have fun, it'll help take your mind off things and begin to remind you who you are outside of the relationship.
But I'm curious why going on a walk with a friend in nature would be cheating? Hanging out alone with someone of the gender(s) you're attracted to isn't cheating. While everyone has different definitions of cheating I think most would agree that violating your partner's boundaries around sexual, emotional, or romantic intimacy is usually what constitutes cheating; hanging out with a friend in a purely platonic way isn't cheating and if your partner made you think so that's a bit of a red flag in my opinion.
can I send u a dm?
