I hesitated because this isn't a place where I'm popular. BUT....I can get proper criticism as well. Like, if I'm being a dumb ass....someone is gonna tell it. With no remorse. And I admire that.
So I met a boy. I think it must have been three mos ago that I was really just having a total effing meltdown over the ex and his new chick. Whom I'm pretty sure there was an affair with.....since I was getting the CC bills showing purchases out at bars I know he wasn't with me at......at times he was supposedly at "physical therapy". Who knows, maybe it wasn't even her. In any case, yeah, it was a mess. But now it's been eight months since he moved out. I'm over him. Regardless of her or anything else, it wasn't gonna work! I started seriously thinking about dating after The Meltdown subsided. I've had several dates, mostly bad really. Actually, one was great but the sex was AWFUL. I've learned a few things.
I actually met this guy when I was newly single. Online. And in no shape to be dating, really. But he deleted his profile. I was bummed out. Then mos later he gets back on and messages me and we've been talking like three mos now (five if you count before he deleted, I guess). At first, we mutually agreed we were just going to have fun together. And we have been. But now.....I really think I like him. A lot. I think he likes me too because he texts me every night and is constantly sweet to me, telling me all these amazing things he likes about me. He's tried, a couple of times, to get me to admit what I want out of this but I've yet to admit anything. Mainly because the D is not final. And this is all happening kinda fast! I don't know enough about him!
What I do know: OMG, he's hot. Like underwear model hot. I wouldn't think this guy would look at me twice. I want to take naked photos of him and show SOMEONE how hot he is. Anyone, I don't care. He's amazing in bed. And he's kinda got his shit together. Out of the AF, finishing college, etc. He knows about my daughter and her autism. It hasn't put him off yet (although he hasn't met her either). The other catch.....
He's younger. Eight years younger. 24. Anyone have any experience with this? I have no idea what to expect at all. As far as obstacles this could create. For the record, this guy is likable enough I'm open to more children if it became long term. I wasn't before. Not saying I would just to have the relationship....but I think I was closing that off before because my marriage wasn't good. I have so much fun with him, he is so sweet, and so awesome that I think I'd have a family with him if it went that far.
Thoughts, advice, etc appreciated. I'm so freaked out. I don't wanna make bad choices or get hurt.
Re: OK I will ask for advice.
If you really want a stranger's two cents: hold off on a serious relationship until you get through this meltdown. From your freak out in this post it's clear you are still angry, unstable & not at all in a good place to be in a relationship.
I don't even know you & I can see you need to take a deep breath. Focus on getting some personal counseling to work through your emotions. An internet message board cannot give you what you need right now..
Which is a big, frosty glass of Simmer The Fuck Down.

FFS-- spazz out & insult internet strangers less & worry about the real shit plaguing your life more.
You're so obsessed with making sure you get pobrecita or something that you are failing to see how off your hinges you sound. Holy shit.
Dating is the least of your worries, mate.

I have no clue who the fuck you are, @HookBringsYouBack , truly. I don't know you from Adam. If your ex cheated on you then that is messed up & shitty. No doubt. However, if your plan is to make me believe that you flipping shit over nothing & then demonizing him isn't a regular occurrence? I'm not buying what you are selling.
I don't know what beef you have with pobrecita-- but you aren't winning anyone over acting like this.

BYE FELICIA!
@pobrecita ((hugs)) hope DS is feeling better!
Stupid exercise.
So how is the little guy feeling this morning @pobrecita ?
I have no idea about anything else that just happened here.
