Sounds like you're on the right track. Just realx, try to keep the over analyzing to a minimum, however do be vigilant and watch out for red flags! At the first sign of one, stop and honestly reconsider if you want to continue. Otherwise, enjoy yourself and let the chips fall where they may.
Do not ignore your personal, spiritual and intellectual growth. This is what will keep you strong wether in, out or in-between a relationship.
