I always sort of expected a girlfriend to ease the tension rather than create more. This stress included her constant dramatic and jealous attitude. There were a few other reasons that aren't that important. But that's not my problem. I do miss her a lot, but I want to date other people. My problem is, I can't really comprehend who I do and don't like. I try to think about what I saw in my ex girlfriend that I was so attracted to. I came up with: she's pretty, sweet, cool, and other things like that. But I realized that a lot of my friends have those same qualities, so why was I in love with her and not my other friends? I ask myself what a person would need for me to like them but I can't even decide. This makes it really hard for me to start a new relationship. I've been meeting new people but with this thought in my head I feel like I won't like anyone now. Is it okay to have no idea what you like about a person? Because I'm starting to freak out thinking I'll never fall in love again.

Like the last guy I dated, I was immediately drawn to his personality, and after that the attraction was simply magnetic but I couldn't explain why I felt that way. But it really feels like a magnet drawing you towards that person. Don't know why.
