What to Do When the Other Person Wants to See Other People
Your current relationship
The fact your boyfriend or girlfriend wants to see other people means normally one of two things. 1) He or she has already met someone new who they like better than you. 2) Your relationship has become stale and he or she is not sure if you are the one for them. Making a long term commitment should not be taken lightly. You can't really fault the other person for wanting to meet new people especially if they are unsure. If they met another or need to take a time out there is nothing you can do about it. The best time to break it off is before you make a long term commitment. There is no use staying in a relationship if it isn't going anywhere.
Take a break
If your not ready to meet other people take a break. You should just walk away if the relationship is to ever turn out it will. You can't force it. Jumping out of one relationship into another is never good. You should just take some time out and heal if thats what it takes. If you were in a long term relationship that just ended it hurts emotionally as well as makes you angry. At these times we are very vulnerable and need not to get involved with other people.
Watch out for rebound relationships
We can lean on other people after a break up which can start rebound relationships. These type of relationships never last and are usually never good. Its too easy to get tangled in a relationship we never wanted after a breakup. Friends are one thing but don't make them lovers when your hurting cause you could lose a friend eventually and thats not ever good.
You will heal in time
Each day after a breakup gets better. Just about everyone one time or another has hurt from broken relationships. Its just a matter of time. Occupy your time with other things and keep yourself open. You never know when love will find you again. Its too easy to close ourself in and to become bitter. Just think that it was best you found out now than to let it go on for many months and get dumped later down the road.
If the relationship was casual than it should be nothing for you to want to see other people too. However, if it meant a whole lot more than these tips are for you.
