What's going on here!? Please help
About three weeks ago my boyfriend and I of nearly two years broke up. He was my first love and I was pretty sad at first, but I got over it quickly as I realized that life was better without him and that he had never really treated me the way I wanted anyway. I'm starting to feel that towards the end of our relationship I was hanging on to him as a habit despite my waning feelings for him.
Now this new guy comes along and becomes interested in me very quickly. I am so attracted to him too, but I feel like if I get involved with him too fast I'll be some kind of a Gertrude or something (the Queen in Hamlet who got remarried just two months after the king died.) Is there some kind of a courtesy period after a serious break up that I shouldn't be seeing anyone? I'm afraid if I turn down NewGuy now that I might lose him. And no, I don't believe I'm rebounding; he just came at this point in time...
