So I met this girl online that seem like almost a younger carbon copy of my ex. Is it healthy for me to go out with her or will it just keep the ex in my mind?

Honeypie agony auntIt really comes down to this, DO YOU want her to BE your ex or is she just "your type"?

If you don't have any crazy expectations that she is going to be JUST like the ex, I don't see a problem. If you DO expect her to be JUST like you ex.. you need to end it, because that would would mean you are SO not over the ex.

k_c100 agony auntWell if you are 22-25 I dread to think how much 'younger' this girl is! If she is under 20 then you should definitely not date her!

If she is over 20, then to address your original question requires me to ask you some questions - are you over your ex? Are you still friends with your ex? Was the relationship with your ex a bad one? Was the break up messy? Do you have feelings for your ex still?

If you are still not 100% over your ex, and havent been single very long, then dating her would be a bad idea.

If you are totally over your ex and have no feelings for her whatsoever, and you like this new girl for her personality not for her looks - then dating her would be a little weird, but there is no reason you shouldnt give it a try.

I hope this helps and good luck!
