He also has qualities that I all want in a person and shares many similarities to me. Unfortunately, we've known each other a really long time.Now, in regards to moving on, I feel like I will compare any subsequent guy to this one. I don't think it's possible to find anyone "as good" or better than this guy. Thoughts? Reply to this Question Share |

I'm just worried that whenever I talk or see him again, I will think "wow. I still like you" or "wow, I used to like you for so long", despite not talking to him for a long period of time.

I think in time that will get better. At the moment you are feeling you will never find someone like that again because your feelings are still raw over this other guy and you still really like him. That will get better in time, and you will soon get over him and move on. Give yourself some time before you start dating again to clear your head from this other guy and make sure you keep your distance. When you do start meeting new people again take them for who they are, never judge or compare someone to someone else. Believe me there will be more than one suitable partner out there for you.

You're not in a good place right now to think about the future. Your feelings of rejection are still raw and you can't see beyond them.
It's a cliche but time will heal. You will meet someone as good or better than this man but only when you are ready.
