Date and see or... wait and see?
So my girlfriend and I broke about two months ago. She still loves me and I am very confused about whether I am still in love with her or not. I care very, very much about her and we still talk almost daily although we have been broken up for about two months. My question is this: I feel like I want to date other people right now to try and figure out if I can or cannot live without my ex. I don't know what the future holds for my ex and I. A possible reconciliation later. I'm getting off the subject. I guess my real question is, is it normal for people to essentially date and use these dates as a measuring stick to see if they are happy dating other people or they date and realize they really belong with your ex? And is there anything wrong with this thinking? I am 36 years old if that helps.
