I just got out of a 3 year relationship. When I visited home after the breakup, I went on bumble and actually met up with someone. We went on a few dates and now he’s madly in love. He’s in California and I’m in South Carolina. I wanted to keep things fun and casual since I just went through so much emotionally, I was looking to burn off some steam. He knows I literally just got out of a relationship prior to meeting him. Last time I visited home we made things official. I was just excited to see him and my emotions got the best of me and I said yes. Now I am feeling very trapped and overwhelmed. I realized I don’t want a relationship right now but I feel like I led him on. He is very clingy and says things like I need you, you make me feel whole.... we’ve known each other for less than a month. He already takes about “forever”. I don’t want to hurt his feelings, but I need to find myself before I get into another relationship. I haven’t been single in forever and I feel like I barely know myself. How do I tread lightly?
