Okay, I'm going to try to get all of this down in a clear-ish way. My BF [20/M] of almost 5 months broke up with me about three weeks ago, he broke my heart but I'm working past it and I tend to bounce back from hard times pretty easily. This guy [22/M] and I started flirting a bit last week, just went on a unofficial double date tonight. He was... Amazing. Smart, sweet, cute, seemed very into me. We could have kept talking for hours it felt like. Before we started the date I was super nervous that this would just hurt, that I wasn't ready, that I wouldn't like him or he wouldn't like me. That was all entirely gone by the end of the night, and I was left with this feeling that I would be okay getting hurt again because the potential relationship that this could become would be worth it. 

I leave for a month on August 2, so about a week and a half away. I don't want to start a relationship and then disappear (no cell reception or wifi where I'm going,) and he knows I'm doing this too, but after tonight I just want to see him again. 

I don't know. I'm confused because I like him, but I also am telling myself not to jump right into something else, but if I leave for a month we certainly won't be jumping into anything, but - but - but there are just so many questions I can't put into words. 

I am also afraid of being a serial monogamist, of not being able to handle being single, because last year I jumped between guys kind of quickly. 

Sorry reddit, this is sort of stream-of-consciousness. I guess my question is: do any of you have any advice? Is there a right way?
