ts,

It's a matter of personal preference/choice for you, what you believe and what your heart can handle, but I would check out other available young men.  Why limit yourself so young?  Have you completed your college education and do you have your own life in order?

I like to protect myself from getting in the middle of someone else's affairs, not to mention it would go against my religious beliefs to put myself in that type of situation.  Also, I would want to sit down and talk with the ex girlfriend to get both sides of the story, if you haven't already discussed things with her.

Relationships can be very complicated.  If you are seeking stability, find it within yourself first.  After you have done that, then seek a best friend for life and I think you will be happy as long as you work hard at it.  Good luck!

Blessings,
