My friends tell me they believe that sometimes, we can meet the right person at the wrong time. I feel that way since I met someone recently, who is everything I want in a partner. He’s sweet, kind, caring, and makes me laugh all the time, and I think we have a great rapport. The timing is wrong because I just got out of a long relationship that was exhausting, and I don’t know if I have the emotional strength to deal with anything new. I am aware that this guy likes me and is definitely considering asking me out, but I don’t know if I should go on a date simply because I am sure I cannot commit to anything at the moment. It saddens me because I know I may not find someone like him for a long time, but I can’t help it. How do I deal with this?
Deal with it by being honest about how you feel and telling him what you are going through. You’re right not to commit to anything you don’t want to, but you’re also assuming he won’t give you time and space until you’re ready to move on. If he’s sensible enough to realize and acknowledge that it takes time for someone to get over the end of a relationship, what makes you think he won’t want to use this time to get to know you better? Also, it may be just the thing you need. When it comes to the notion of timing, it is always fluid because we can’t predict when our feelings will change. If you like him and want to know him better, without the need to get into anything, nothing stops you from meeting him for dinner and telling him this.

Should I continue seeing someone even if they have lied to me?
