Was in a serious relationship for 4 1/2 years and broke up in December. She decide to leave me.

I just started dating someone new for a month now. She has two kids which are 5-7 years old. The whole dating someone with kids is new to me as i dont have kids at all. She has her kids week on week off.

The whole back to seeing someone new feels kinda weird at times to me. I sometimes still miss my ex , but I no that isnt going to happen again. Its just some memories pop into my head of the good times we had and i always think ill have those memories.

How can i let someone in more and see this as a new chapter in my life and move past my memories ? Never dated soemone with kids, it doesnt bother me, but is there a point in time where i know this is what i will want?

thanks hopefully those questions werent to grey.
