should I go out with him or no?

so here’s the deal ladies. I got out of a relationship with my first love five months ago now, it still affects me daily and it still hurts. I do not believe I am over him. there is this guy that really wants to take me out on a date and he keeps asking... he’s really nice and he’s a good friend but I just idk. I’m not really looking to date right now at all and I consider doing it but I don’t know what the point would be. 1. he lives far away and I swore to never do long distsnce again because that’s what led to the decline in my last relationship and 2. even if he was close, I don’t think I’m in the right headspace right now and I want to give myself more time to heal and move on from my ex.

but I also feel like I am missing an opportunity or something cause he is respectful, cute, and sweet? idk. what do you guys think)
