New relationships after old ones

Sarah

So I have been broken up with my ex of almost 3 years for almost a month now. Our relationship was extremely toxic, all we did was fight and there was no attraction the only reason I stayed with him so long was because we have a daughter together. After a year of me telling him I think we should break up and telling him I needed to be away from him I finally ripped off the bandaid and broke up with him. About a week ago I met this guy and both our intentions were just sex but now things feel different and when he talks to me it seems like he isn’t just in it for the sex. He has a daughter close in age to mine. I didn’t think anything of this until my friend brought it up to me and said I was becoming to attached and now I’m so stressed and it’s all I can think about. I do like this guy and think we have a good connection, half my friends are saying I didn’t wait long enough to start talking to someone but the other half day it’s fine and do what I feel is right. I just want to be sure I’m not making a mistake here and jumping into this to fast. I want to actually get to know him if anything does happen and I wouldn’t want to be official for a few months I just need someone else’s advice on this. Am I getting into something to fast I shouldn’t or should I just let things happen? If you have ever been in this situation I would love to hear what your experiences were like
