Dating advice??

Hey girls. I recently got out of a long relationship. It’s been over a month. I was pretty heart broken and sad. I’m started to feel better every day.

I keep going back and forth to whether I want to use dating apps and start talking to new guys or not.

It’s been so long since I’ve been in the dating world and I’m a bit nervous. I’m in my mid 20s. i was with my ex for almost 5 years. Honestly, we still text every once in a while and I guess I still have the hope we will get back together. I really thought he was going to be the man I was going to marry and have a family with. But he left me and now I just feel so alone

Do you have any advice for me ??
