Girl emotionally attached to her ex? Do it keep it moving?

[IRush]

So I’ve been dating this girl for over a month and things have been going very well. We have good chemistry and it’s steady. I let her know my intentions from the beginning and she was on board. It was to date while vetting her for marriage. But after our 5th date, she mentioned she’s still emotionally attached to her ex after I let her know that way I'm treating her is how I would treat my woman that I pursue and deserve it. She still sees her ex at work and the girl the ex moved on to works there as well.
The breakup happened like Three months ago. Keep in mind, I didn't know any of these details, and she never showed any red flags about her ex while dating. It was also her first boyfriend and one she was physical with. I guess my only hint was the lack of emotional reciprocation, but that could have been any reason. After reflecting on the conversation, I felt lead on if she's been feeling this way all this time we’ve been going out. I'm not the type of person to wait for someone because I believe that's a waste of time, but she's a dope girl and a rare one. Do I cut her off?

I think you answered your own question. If you find her a “dope girl” and “a rare one”, why cut her off?

I think best to sit and talk and make certain she is committed to you. Three months is not a long time gone by. Maybe she still has some feelings but really does like you. Best to get it in the open.

Based on our conversation, she said she really likes me but doesn't want to lead me on until she's ready because she understands that it would be wasting my time pursuing someone that Isn't reciprocating it. So the conversation ended with a consensus that she needed to work on herself.

Sounds like a fair assessment and plan.

Hell yea bro. Let's hypothetically say you're a prize, which is a metaphor too, if you don't believe it I believe for you. They don't give out second place trophies to the champs. You need to look for your champ (voluptuous and sexy female)
Would you really be ok with her seeing you as a second place trophy? fck that shit, either first choice or keep the ball rolling, ya feel?

It’s called an imprint. You don’t want any part of that. Completely wrecked my marriage when my ex wife could not get over her ex. No amount of therapy can fix it. Run for your life

[IRush]

I thought the same thing that he had imprinted on her. If I may ask, did the ex-wife go back to him or move on to someone else? Because if they can't move on, do they end up alone?

Yeah she’s in love with him and they probably were still together this entire time though.

I guess they should try to work it out
