Dating : How can you date someone fresh out of a relationship?
A week ago I went on a date with this guy last Tuesday and we talked for hours about everything: life, religion, work, the political things, even some family trauma. It felt natural and the way we clicked I haven’t felt in a while (and he even told me the same). Later, we went back to his place and he told me didn’t want to touch me or have sex with me because he gets attracted to girls he sleeps with easily.
We talked, I showed him my tattoos and explained them all, he showed me his and because I’m a wild person I asked him about what he liked in bed. I take it further and we flirt more and I tell him to show me his recommended for you tab on PornHub and he said “No girl has ever asked me that but I like it” and we show each other our PornHub pages (I know I’m so romantic) and we laugh at the ridiculous titles.
Then everything felt right and we make out and ended up having sex, then talking more, and then having more rounds of sex until maybe 4 a.m.
He drops me off the next day and we text and snap each other like teenagers and end up being each other’s #1 best friend on Snapchat. We make plans to go to a bar Friday and we drink, laugh, kiss and he introduces me to his friends and co workers. I go back to his and we just talk for hours.
It sounds great until I realize he just broke up with his ex (a couple days after we met) and yeah he tells me “I really like you, more than I thought I would” but I can tell he’s not all emotionally there.
So, I’m just wondering if I should slow down and be realistic because I don’t think he’s ready for a relationship? And if so, how?

Meeting his friends and coworkers is a good sign. Sex is fine, but make sure you’re not missing the other parts of the relationship like quality time together. Try to make some date or events plans for the future: tix to a concert, park or museum exploring etc.
If they’re the one for you, they’ll be there for you though. Timing does play an important role in relationships, and at the same time they’ve gotta be in a place that they’re willing to work together. If they’re the one, then you’ve got all the time in the world to figure it out. Enjoy what you have
Depends how checked out he was when they broke up. You could be a rebound attempt.
