So I was dating a girl for about a year and a half. I broke up with her recently. Thats a story for another time. However, this other girl(We'll call her H) told me that she liked me, however she had just gotten out of a long-term relationship as well. We've been "dating" for a couple weeks. She says she doesnt really want a boyfriend, which I thought would be okey cause I dont particularly want to be tied down. But heres the kicker, she's still in love with her ex, which is why she doesnt want to be with me. Not only that but she doesnt want to be as intimate as I would like(Kissing, hugging and some topless play is all). I want to be stoic and just try to prove that Im the better man, but Im not sure if Im just desperate and this is a rebound or something. I really want it to work out, but I really dont need to be hurt.

Any thoughts?

You're the rebound.

Escape while you still can or face total ownage once she runs back to her boyfriend/ can't handle the relationsip/ leaves you because you guys 'need space'.

This is not a good position for you to be in.
