Should I date again or not?

My girlfriend just broke up with me. I'm not happy about it because I still have strong feelings about her. I know I need to move on, but I realized that I am someone who wants long relationships. I don't like the idea of dating someone who you don't have strong feelings for. My ex-girlfriend is the only one who I believe that I could actually date. I don't feel the same way about anyone else that I know. I do think that others girls that I know are cute, but It's not the same as her. My dating policy is that if you plan on breaking up with someone, you shouldn't date them in the first place. So now I plan on waiting till my high school years are over to start dating. Then I can find the perfect person for me, because I can't see any of the peope right now being perfect for me. Is this a good idea or should I forget about my dating policy?

Should I date again or not?
Wow, you are really mature for a high school student! Most people don't realize what you know now util their late 20's. My suggestion to you is to have fun and experience life. Experience women. If you hold on to that policy, you will be limiting yourself from a lot of valuable relationship experience that will help you in the long run. There is nothing wrong with spending time with someone of the opposite sex just for companionship. Every relationship does not have to be a serious, long-term thing. Besides, with life experience, you'll change, and the kind of woman you think is "perfect" now might repulse you later. If you limit your possibilities, you might not ever find the right woman. I applaud you for your maturity, but I think you should keep your options open and think outside the box when it comes to dating. Good luck young man!
Reply:Dont move on because you feel that you have to, i completely understand your policy, however you must understand that you will probably date a lot of people whom you dont want to finish with, but things can stilll break up and you have to be prepared for this. Sadly, not much changes after high school so don't get your hopes up, just hang out with friends and have fun and if you start to like a girl then go for it, regardless of whether your still at school or not . But remeber your young! have fun! Dont get too caught up wondering if things will last or if they are over.

Reply:Aww, sorry to hear about your break up! I agree that you shouldn't go out with someone just for the sake of it - it isn't fair on yourself OR on the other person. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being single, especially if you're still in high school, as there's so many other things going on.





However, I wouldn't plan on not dating for a set period. Life isn't as easy as that and you may miss out on someone special if you put restrictions on relationships. Just concentrate on your friendships for now, and who knows, maybe something could happen with one of the cute girls you know? ;)
Reply:Lose you dating policy. If you see someone interesting/attractive to you. Date them, it's a date not marriage. Mostly, have fun, and don't try too hard. That's when your soulmate will come along. When your not looking.


Definately, date but don't do the girlfriend thing unless you are really into that person, then go for it.
Reply:what are you calling dating? How are you going to get to know a woman well if you don't date her?





Guess what. your dating policy is unrealistic. Dating is what people who have a romantic interest in each other do when they want to get to know one another. It is a time you use to decide if this is someone you want to be with on a permanent basis. If they are, then you stop dating other people. If they aren't then you stop dating them and continue dating other people.





It is a good idea that you wait until you finish high school first. School has so much else going on and so many other pressures that you really don't need the stress of a romantic relationship distracting you from other things that should be more important to you at this stage in life.





Good Luck.
Reply:Why not take a little break from dating and just see what happens. This should come naturally anyway. I'm sure you have some friends that are girls, and maybe by getting to know more about them, you might find something special in them that might make you want to date them in the future. Also, I'm sure you will be meeting other girls down the road. Just enjoy yourself and hang out with friends. Everybody has been in relationships that end for some reason or another. Its just part of life and usually for a reason. You are still in highschool, which means you will be meeting many girls in your future. Hang in there, it will happen. ;)
Reply:Good idea! Find out who you are, what you want, and what makes you happy. Then, you'll only pick people that meet your criteria and have a chance at something good. Just have fun and make your life good - all the serious relationship crap will come soon enough. Have fun with your guy friends and love will find you when you're not looking.
