Is it important that I move on first after our breakup?

Question - (30 January 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 30 January 2011)
A female United States age 26-29, *orrely writes:

So, I'm in a bit of a situation right now, my ex and I broke up 2 weeks ago, and he's been really flirty with one girl lately.. She's known for being a complete slut, so I wouldn't be surprised if something happened. I talked to him about it, because we dated for a year and only broke up two weeks ago (we're still friends) and he said that we split, we broke up. Doesn't justify much but whatever.

Anyways, so at my age (15) reputation in high school is really important, and i do not want to get the reputation for being a slut. However, I would kind of rather hookup w someone before he does..

Is this a good/bad idea? Any advice will be helpful, thank you!! xx

YouWish agony auntDO NOT HOOK UP!!! Just because he manwhores around doesn't mean that you have to. He is right. You both did break up. It's not wrong for him to go find some slut to validate his wounded ego, but it is stupid and immature. Why on earth do you want to become immature before he does?

No. You can rise above the end of the relationship and his manwhore behavior by concentrating on making yourself better. Laugh with your friends. Study hard. Go enjoy a hobby that you love. Instead of running off to find some random guy to hook up with just to show your boyfriend that you recover better than he does, be proud to be alone, because then, when it's time to find a guy, it will be because you cherish him, and he'll like you for more than a quick hookup.

Stay strong! Just because your ex is weak and a slave to his ego doesn't mean that you have to try and jump into the sewer before he does.
