He was a virgin, hadn’t even kissed anyone before me.
My (25F) ex (24M) broke up with me a couple days ago, after just shy of one year together. I love him and he still loves me too, but he wasn’t sure he wanted to get serious with me because he’s never been with anyone else. There is a possibility that he is on the spectrum, and he usually feels a lot less emotional than most people.
I still feel like there is a chance we would be great partners for the long term, but I genuinely want him to see other people first. My excitement for him to see other people is mostly because I think it would be great for his social skills, good for him to experience sex with someone else, and honestly an opportunity to recognize that our connection is better than he thought.
He wants to remain friends, and I love him so I want to be there for him. Just wondering if it is okay to be friends with him? Or should I just step away completely?
If he found a relationship with someone else and was ready to commit to that person, I’d be happy for him even! Although, I’m ultimately still feeling like there is a chance he’s the one, we both need a bit more time to mature or gain life experience. I guess I’m also realizing that process could take years.
Anyone ever dated someone very inexperienced? Letting go or staying friends while they date others? Feeling pretty conflicted.
