Distances between relationships

    When I'm drunk, I give my number out to most guys that ask me. I'm single, so I'm not hurting anyone, but I'm only single a few months after a few years with my ex.

    I know I should probably take a year or so off relationships, but I just can't resist when I'm out and I get attention. I don't have interest every single night, but most weekends, or a new interest every two weeks. If they are attractive and sound then I kind of don't want to turn up the chance...as I said..I'm single!

    Problem is, I'm still friends with my ex and he lives in the same village as me. We don't see each other too often but we do still bump into each other. I can do what I want in private, but if I were out on a date and he saw me, he would be a little upset. He thinks I'm taking a year out from dating, because that's what I've been telling everybody.

    Should I give up drink? Should I pretend I have a partner when I'm out? Give out another number? What if the guy is super nice and sound?? He could be the 1??

    OP if you are single and feel ready to date then go ahead! You presumably broke up with your bf for a good reason that is still valid. It is very commendable that ye are still friends but you are only friends now and he really has no say in your love life or in when you might be ready to see other people. I wouldn't put my life on hold for someone you bump into occasionally - as you say, one of the guys you meet could be your next boyfriend :)
