My girlfriend and I had been in a long term relationship for over 6 years, she decided she wasn't happy anymore and that we had grown apart over the years and she needed to work on herself, and we needed to be apart.

We had been talking some and communicating after the break up, talking about what could have caused us to grow apart, possibly 2nd chances...this and that...but suddenly yesterday she told me that she is done with women and it just doesn't work for her anymore.

Now I find out, she is talking to some guy that lives 4 hours away from her, she "likes" him as she says and his feeling is mutual for her, but she says she doesn't know where it is going to go. because she isn't ready for a relationship, she wants to work on her for, herself....she says...

First how does someone who has been a lesbian all their life, 32 yrs of their life, never been with a man, and has stood firm they had no interest in men, suddenly they are done with women, and wants to be with men?

Second, how do I wrap my mind around the fact that my ex is now wanting flip over to guys...I don't think she was talking to this guy before we broke up but I am not sure... if not we've only been broken up 2 months, and this is really quick for her to already like this guy or have a crush as she put it...

I'm just having a hard time getting a grip on it...I know I need to and move on its just hard.
