    Break up
    My boyfriend and I broke up 2 months ago, We started to argue and not get along as famously as we started. We have know each other for 11 years , we worked together yet both of us were in relationships while we worked together. We dated for 18 months , it was a blow up of an argument. A week had passed and then I called him , I was sick in the hospital with pneumonia , and when I called him he said he needed time to think about our relationship. To make a long story short, he ended up telling me it would not work out and I wanted the relationship but I realized I wanted the relationship because I did not want to be alone.

    I emailed him and he responded very friendly, I was rude by telling him that I am out and about, going on with life...

    He is a nice man, but he is very much into himself , (Selfish) I am single now, involved in my own activities. Is it too soon to date, it has only been a couple months since the break-up but I am getting asked out by of all things younger men , (significantly younger). I have gone out with my dance partner who is a younger man, but I am very apprehensive of getting involved with anyone younger or older too soon.


    Should I wait a while before dating?

    The email to my ex- does he think that email was a attempt to try to get back together?

    There's no right or wrong time to start dating again, it's whenever you feel comfortable. You two have broken up, so if you feel like dating a particular person... Do it! Just make sure you date for the right reasons (and NOT to get back at your ex or anything along those lines)

    As for the email, he may think you're trying to get him back... But it seems doubtful in my opinion. You were friends first, have known each other for a long time... There's a friendship bond there that'll be hard to break and chances are it seems you both miss each other's friendship. :)

    It seems to me like YOU think it may be too early and you think you just need someone there all the time. You mentioned your fear of being alone... don't date someone if you are not ready. Go out with "friends" not expecting love at first sight and soon you will know when it's the right time.
