Hey so I’m looking for some advice pertaining to a possible partner and an ex. I (22F) have an ex, S(39M), and a potential partner, A(21M). A has never had a girlfriend and says he’s not ready for a relationship, but recently took that back and said he might be ready for me soon. So far my “relationship” with A has felt unlike any other I’ve had, a level of tranquility that I’m not used to. My hunch is this is because he is securely attached. And so far my experience would back this up. S, on the other hand, is abusive. I never got the chance to fully explain why I broke up with him, but he called me yesterday. Now that it would be on the phone, it would be safe to do so. Do I call S back? Is that emotional cheating on A even though we’re not committed?
