Dating is like riding a bicycle, right?

Question - (8 December 2010) 7 Answers - (Newest, 13 December 2010)
A female United States age 36-40, *llieb19 writes:

I posted questions before about being cheated on for almost 3 yrs and not knowing what to do about fiance, moving on and our businesses together. Well, I am trying to move on! Here's my new question: I met a new guy, who seems great, treats me with respect, has a good job, own house etc and is easy to talk to and has qualities I'm looking for, and he believes in commitment and honesty, but I don't know if I am that attracted to him..he dresses well, isn't ugly by any means. I'm confused. Am I not ready to move on? He's 35 and I'm 27, is that too much of an age gap? I know I don't want to dive into a relationship, but do i give him a chance? Take things slow? I haven't dated in soo long, I feel lost

You can work out later whether you are attracted to him, as at the moment you are probably holding back. Let a friendship develop and if you want to take it further later you will have a better idea.

He sounds really nice.

QuirkLady agony auntGo on a few dates with him if you like though and think of it as dating practice. Maybe you'll hit it off. Maybe you won't. You don't have to dive back into serious relationship territory right away. You're allowed to have fun and meet lots of guys and have good times without having to get all serious. Just be honest and upfront about it.

pixiegirls agony auntSomething seems to be holding you back. To go into a relationship where you already say you aren’t attracted is just asking for a disaster. Instead of being anxious about beginning any new relationship, why not try just dating casually to get your feet wet. It gives you the opportunity to really “know” when you meet someone it’s right. It’s always scary to start the whole dating thing over again….just don’t push it.
