Hi
I came out of a horrible relationship 2 months ago. He lied and cheated throughout. He was a classical narcissistic sociopath.
I felt depressed afterwards as I couldn't believe all the lies. People may think it's too soon but I'm starting to not let people's opinions bother me.
Anyway an old flame from 6 years ago got back in touch.
We've been on loads of dates and he is a total gentleman, he's treating me so nice. He's kind. He won't let me pay a penny on any date which I'm not used to as my ex was really tight. And never took me on a date, I was basically his glorified babysitter for his child.
The new guy has no kids and his own business and he is doing really well for himself, I keep feeling lucky oI find someone who has no children at his age and who wants them.
But the one thing is I'm not wowed by him I don't overly fancy him, but he is growing on me. I care for him already. I'm just wondering if I still could be up and down with everything that happened with my ex to not be letting my guard down.
I could have a lovely life with this guy. Can you fall in love with someone who you are not overly attracted too?
My ex is also still in the picture and as soon as he found out about him he started calling him a mong and he couldn't believe how quickly I moved on. Bear in mind it was him that cheated and ended things.
I mean he doesn't totally turn me off. Lol
I think I'm still confused. Any advise would be good ?
