We have been getting to know each other for two months now.
Nothing serious just hanging out and cinema /meals drinks etc.
He's relationship ended with his ex three months ago,they were together two years,they had 2 year break and 5 years together before that.
He told me in the two years they were split he never had a relationship with anyone else but did date(nothing serious)
Last night I was with him and his friend and GF and he's friend mentioned the ex and immediately he said "don't tell me,I don't want to know"
He has spoke about her to me,told me how they got back together and why they split.
Told me about there arguments etc
I just feel he isn't over her at all.
Do you agree?
I've developed feelings for him and I know I'm gonna get hurt.

You’re right, he only finished with his ex 3 months ago and you’ve already been seeing him for 2 months.

You’re the rebound and you’re going to get hurt if you have feelings for him. Save yourself any more hurt and end it now. Sorry.

I wouldn’t want to date someone so soon after his breakup.

Chances are you’re another one of his “nothing serious” dating relationships.

How did you meet?

If online it doesn’t reflect well on him to be seeking to date only a few weeks post break up.

He's a friend of a friend.
I wasn't looking to date and neither was he.
We just got chatting and then texting and went to the cinema etc etc

A month between after a serious relationship isn't long though it could have been dead in the water before that.

Only you know the tone when he said he didn't want to know, was it a I don't want to know because it'll upset me, or a I don't want to know as I don't care?

Don't ignore your gut feelings

My gut is saying he is still into her
He obviously loved her.

Even if he’s not still into her, given that there was virtually no gap he’s unlikely to be up for a new relationship other than casual dating. If you’re looking for that too, fair enough, but it doesn’t sound like you are.

@Loopytiles at first I was thinking this is fun,someone to text,see each other whenever would be nice then obviously I developed feelings for him.
