Hello, I am a 30 year old single mom and I was in a relationship for the past 2 1/2 years with an old flame. This man reappeared in my life after 6 years and we seemed to pick up where we left off, accept that I had a child and we have both gotten older. He asked me to marry him after a 1 year and I started planning, crazy things seemd to happen in the past year and I have relaized that he wasn't the one for me. I have moved back in with my mother for what I thought would be a good time for us to save money for our wedding and house, however that wasn't on his agenda, he used my moving as a way to get out of the relationship and I have not heard from him in a month. In the mean time I found out from a friend that he had broken up with me. LOL. In any case I have since met a wonderful man, who is caring kind, God fearing, loving, smart, hard working and honest (so I hope). He says that I am what he has been looking for. His last relationship was 2 and a half years ago. I just wonder are we moving to fast, I have never felt the way that I feel about him ever before not even with my old flame. This is the first time that I am scared to be happy in a rleationship. So far things are going great and I have no complaints. He even wants to get a place together by June. What should I do, should I back up or should I continue to pursue this man that I feel is my soul m:confused: ate?

I would slow down. You just got out of a long relationship and you were engaged. I would take things slow with this new guy. Really get to know each other and don't blindly jump into something. Its easy for someone to seem great in the beginning but don't let yourself get wrapped up. Also if you're going to move forward you need to be certain of your feelings and not just jump into a rebound relationship. If it moves too fast you won't be able to gain any perspective believe me I've been there and none too happy with the result.
