    They do it to try and get their mind off of that person. It’s basically just a physical distraction

    She wants you to go out with him.. or to get in a relationship with him? These can be two very different things.

    There's nothing wrong with that. Take the time you need, and tell your sister to leave you alone about it.

    Some people really don't like to be alone. Others prefer to take more time. It is very individual.

    I have a friend who was dumped on her b-day by someone she loved...she didn't like being alone...she 'picked a guy' she already knew and said (to me ) 'I don't totally hate him'...4 years later...they share a mortgage but she often mentions contingency plans...

    Forked up sheet to me

    How would you know if they are over there ex ?
    Maybe they fell out of love along time ago and they finally decided to break up and date someone soon after.
    Every story is different .


    I’m referring to my situation lol but i know people who do it to get over someone

    With all the posts you’ve made have been about relationships, my advice to you is be single for a while and enjoy yourself! Don’t let just any guy swoon you

    Duh, to make that other person jealous so they will come back to them. Or to punish them for not liking them enough (this is best accomplished by boning either a sibling, parent, best friend or ex of the person).

    sometimes you do it to forget someone else.
    sometimes you do it just so you can pretend it's the same someone else.
