So maybe you are ready for a new relationship, although if you chose to read this post, chances are you think you’re not. Maybe you\u2019re still in love with your ex\u2026 deny it all you want, we all know its true, and it’s okay, we\u2019ve all been there. But maybe I’m wrong? If that’s the case, check out these other signs that suggest you are not ready for a new relationship.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>1.\u00a0Y<\/span>ou\u2019re still checking for recent updates on their Instagram page\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

OMG, a new story!!! Need to check that out ASAP. Um. Wait. Who\u2019s this liking his picture? Is that a new follower I see? FFS. DAY RUINED.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

2. Nights are long, lonely and wine can only comfort you so far<\/h2>\n

Yeah sure wine does the job for the first two hours, then what? \u00a0Now I\u2019m drunk and need someone to talk to. Hit up my gal pal? No, wait she\u2019s with her new man. Hit up that guy from pryzm? Nope, he was a bit of a weirdo. Looks like its Big Bang Theory on repeat for me tonight.<\/p>\n

3. You relate to love songs like never before<\/h2>\n

Let me set the scene for you:<\/p>\n

You’re sat by the window, it’s raining, “Heart – Alone” is playing through your earphones, a tear trickles down your cheek. You\u2019re thinking about all the good times you shared. The times you laughed together, the times you wined and dines together. And all you can think is: I will never love like that again. *cue violin*<\/p>\n

4. A nice outfit is a waste if he didn\u2019t see it\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

You mean I diverted my route to uni a whole 20 mins just so I could walk by his house\u00a0<\/span>and he still didn\u2019t see me?! I even stood outside his lecture room but no, he was too busy with the \u201clads\u201d to notice my new jeans and haircut. Utterly useless. It’s okay. Take two tomorrow.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Your friends are tired of hearing his name<\/h2>\n

Friend: Oh really, you texted him again? *rolls eyes* What are you going to say this time? *rolls eyes* he did what? *sighs* She\u2019s probably just his friend, chill.<\/p>\n

You: Yeah, you\u2019re probably right<\/p>\n

\u2026.<\/p>\n

You: I’m just gonna text him “hi”.<\/p>\n

\n

6. You can’t watch a romcom without thinking \u201cah those were the days\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Love actually? Hitch? Knocked up? Whatever it is, it gives you ALL the feels. You\u2019ll be watching, thinking, “Aw, I remember when we did that. Aw, we used to watch that. Aw, we went there”. OK we get it, you had a boyfriend.<\/p>\n

Round Two<\/h2>\n

OK, if you don\u2019t relate to these signs you might just well be over your ex. Congrats. You\u2019ve reached the second round. What else can be telling that you\u2019re not ready for a new relationship?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

7. You\u2019re focusing on other aspects of your life\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Be it school work, uni work, or maybe you\u2019re trying to climb up your career ladder, a relationship just isn\u2019t what youre working on right now. And thats fine. The time will come. You think if it happens, it happens.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

8. You\u2019re not happy within yourself\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Before getting into a\u00a0 <\/span>new relationship it’s important that you are happy. There’s no point looking for someone to fill that empty hole, or occupy that empty space in your life because 9\/10 they won\u2019t and you\u2019ll be left disappointed. A relationship should be a display of your happiness not its foundation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

9. You haven\u2019t unpacked your emotional baggage<\/h2>\n

Theres no point going into a relationship with past unresolved issues. They\u2019ll either come back to haunt you or manifest into something like communication issues. After all, you can only start to pack for another holiday once you\u2019ve un packed from the last.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

10. You don\u2019t think your ready for another relationship.\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Trust your instincts. If you don\u2019t think you\u2019re ready, chances are, you\u2019re probably not. Simple as that, really.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

When it comes to love and relationships, there’s really no need to rush. Take you’re time and you’ll find it or maybe it’ll come to you.<\/h3>\n
