Fire Salamander Posted September 20, 2010 Posted September 20, 2010 I recently met a girl in one of my lectures that looks exactly like my ex girl friend. I can definitely tell she has a lot of interest in me. Every time I look at her she's staring at me. Whenever I look back we lock eye contact. I'm always the first to break away... It's because well, she looks like my ex. I do admit, I find her attractive though. I know that the only path is forward. There's been ample healing time and I've decided I don't want her back. I'm going to be a man and stand my ground, however... I'm scared. I'm scared that subconsciously I'm only with her because of how she looks. I certainly don't want that to be the case, but for some reason I'd feel this would be an underlying doubt I'm not sure if I can deal with. Has anyone ever been in this situation? And how has it affected how you treat this person? It reminds me of this particular Usher song:
Lemontang Posted September 20, 2010 Posted September 20, 2010 Oddly enough yes I have, a girl I met looked very similar to an old ex of mine and it was for that very reason I decided not to get involved with her seriously. For me it just didn't feel right let alone fair to her as I was not seeing this girl for who she was but rather comparing her to an ex all the time. Funnily enough the very ex's rebound boy friend straight after me was a carbon copy and her friends nick name of him was a mix of his name and mine even her folks thought it was me from a distance.
Author Fire Salamander Posted September 20, 2010 Author Posted September 20, 2010 Haha that's pretty amusing how her new boy friend is a carbon copy of yourself. Thanks for the post, I just don't think I can get involved either. It's so unfair to her I know! :*
