Yeah!!!! It so does get better. It's amazing how much better it gets. And you end up feeling great. Warning - there will be some down moments but they won't last too long.
My take on contacting new guy - don't!! Like DB, don't pursue. I know you don't like games, and I'm the same way, but I felt if I had to get back into the dating world I need to learn some of the games/techniques. I felt although I was trying to play it cool, I was pursuing new guy. I totally backed off when he did. I actually did at first reach out to him via text, but then he would not respond right away and I literally when and deleted all his contact info from my phones. I figure if he's still interested he would contact me. Don't pursue him, its even more awkward since you haven't established a R. My take... maybe the guys here will have better advice on women pursuing me.
