I recently saw an ex.not only an ex, but the first guy I was "with".
He moved to Florida two years ago, and he was recently in town. We went on a date (traditional ice cream and a movie), and even though I knew he was leaving the next day (or maybe because he was leaving the next day.) we ended up holding hands in the movies and kissing
When it was time to say goodbye, neither of us wanted to end the night, and what started as kissing led to a lot more. It was both totally mutually started and nothing we hadn't done before.so I'm wondering if this is really a case where the guy loses respect for a girl for going too fast. I never move at that speed, but it was with my ex.and I really have no idea when I'll see him again (it could be years, I don't have time to travel 1,000 miles away with school and work). Any advice would be appreciated!
If he's your ex, why are you (I'm guessing) sleeping with him, even after you've broken up? Why did you break up in the first place?
You haven't stated how he acted about all of it so there's really no reason to think he's lost respect for you. It sounds like you both just wanted to hook up, and when it was over you went your ways. It also sounds like you still like this guy even though you aren't together anymore.
Most people don't jump at the chance to sleep with an ex because they're thinking, "and I really have no idea when I'll see him again". Usually, with an ex, people are like, "Oh, I'll say hi to him and catch up a little, then go on our ways."
You almost seem like you really want him to stay with you.
