i’m doing this at the moment, its scarier than i thought it would be to be honest. I was with my boyfriend for 3 and half years from when i was 17. Now i’m 21 and i’ve been single for 5 months, there have been other guys around but nothing serious. i think its been so great to get my own life back. The ex is a friend now and although he’s in a new relationship i feel no rush to get myself hooked up again, its nice getting to know myself.
