He made me laugh constantly, we had so much in common in terms of interests and hobbies and when he hugged me goodbye I would just go weak. However, he had a girlfriend - though it was a relatively new thing. After much persuading from my friends (trust me, it took a lot because he is gorgeuos) I did the right thing and left them to it. He knew i was developing feelings for him because I came clean one drunken night in a pub - but he never made me feel awkward about it. We just continued as normal. We stayed friends but I tried to see him less so to hlep me move on. I guess I pushed him to the back of my head to help me just get over him but have always occasionaly thought about him and i still get butterflies when I see him or when we chat. The other night he sent me a message - he's broken up with the gf. He didnt say why and he didnt give details just said it was over, and that he was off on a business trip for a week but wanted to see me when he got back for a drink and something to eat. Ive never been in this situation before and was just wondering if this is ok? He's broke up with his gf and is directing his attentions at me - it sounds normal to me, but just wanted some advice from those more experience.

There is a real risk you could be his rebound girl.
Go out with him by all means but keep it light, and take things really slowly. Make sure you have been going out a good few weeks before you sleep with him. Make sure it's you he's after and not just sex.
You sound like a nice girl and you did the right thing by leaving their relationship to it.
Good Luck!! xx

So he sounds interested. Sounds normal to me. Unless they dated for a long while, I wouldnt worry about you being the rebound girl. He may have even dumped her for you, since he didnt give you the details in the message. Just meet him and let him tell you what happened and get a feel for the situation. He may even just want someone to talk to about it. Until you meet him or he tells you, you really wont know exactly what it is about. In my opinion it sounds like he is interested but I dont know the guy. If that is whats going on and you still like him too, date him. Good luck !
