Is it normal to feel this way?

I broke up with an ex girlfriend about 2 months ago due to anxiety and OCD. I took the time to try to figure myself out and take care of myself and I ended up going on medication and my true feelings came out for my ex and I told her how I felt, which is that I love her. However, she said she just doesn't have those feelings for me anymore and doesn't see me like "that" anymore. So I told her I couldn't be friends with her because it hurts me to much. Now I told her all this about 2 or 3 weeks ago I think.

Now I started talking to this other girl and she's really nice and attractive and I was excited to go hang out with her the first night. Now I'm a little excited for the next date, but I'm not sure if I'm extremely excited and I feel like I just have doubts running through my head. But is it normal to feel completely uncertain or questionable after a first date or even just currently feel like whatever still because of my ex? I mean I don't want to ruin an opportunity to meet a new girl.

    Don't worry you will get over your ex soon enough. Only after you get over her it is time to start a new relationship.

    Don't carry old baggage of insecurity into the new relationship. Watch the OCD too

    You're still emotionally numb from your last relationship. This is normal. The healthy thing to do would be to reconnect with yourself by doing relaxing/fun things for a while before attempting to start another relationship. You will know when you are ready to start dating again when you are happy with your life but getting a little lonely.
