Don’t immediately lay all your emotional shit on him–the whole “I’ve been hurt before” Even if he’s a good guy, any rational, healthy person would be overwhelmed by that right away. Instead, send each other lovely message Keep it light.
Don’t panic. Don’t overtext–you’re worth the chase. Also, you’re busy as balls, man! You have friends to hang out with, things to do and a career ladder to climb, otherwise known as “a life.” Don’t forget that.
Go somewhere cheap and low-key with him and just have fun. Don’t drink too much. Don’t worry too much. Don’t try too hard. Let him make you laugh. Kiss him on the street if he deserves it. Also, only go home with him when you’re dying to, not just when you sort of want to or feel like you have to, because you know that if you have a tiny little sliver of doubt it’ll grow into massive anxiety and you’ll end up being like, I regret this!” and he’ll be like well your feelings freak me out.”
Stop talking about your ex, the one who broke your heart–stop dwelling on him in general. Don’t read into this new guy’s every text message the way you did with your ex, either. Try not to put too much pressure on yourself to be perfect, because he’ll sense it. Take everything he says at face value–don’t obsessively ask him if he’s having a good time or how much he likes you, or whatever. It’s okay to be neurotic, but if he understands and appreciates your positive qualities first, he’ll be better-equipped (and should actually want) to deal with the negatives.
