Dating after a break up

Hello!

I went through a breakup back in December and I still think about it quite often. It was a long relationship that I invested real love and time into. Unfortunately, we are on other sides of the country now and I need to focus on myself.

I do not want a relationship at the moment but I also don’t just want a hookup. I’m trying to get back into dating, just casual, aka dinner dates, movies, & maybe a bar or club.

I have been focusing on myself for a while and I believe I’m ready to go out again. Plus, I just recently got asked on a date. I’m still a bit nervous though.

Any tips or stories?! I’d love to hear them! 😊
