lalalandman Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 There's a girl I met and we really really hit it off. She's super sweet and we seem really good for each other. I have a feeling this might be going somewhere. The question I have is, I still think about my ex. We were together for 5 years when she broke it off in May. The last time we spoke was 2 Sundays ago. She's called a couple times since which I've ignored, mostly because I feel like she just calls for pointless reasons. I just want to know if it's normal to still think about her, and if it's acceptable to move forward with a new relationship?
ScienceGal Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 It's normal... welcome to my world In all likelihood, you will have thoughts and memories of her for a while. 5 years is a long time to be with someone and there is no way to erase her from your mind. But in time, as new memories are made, thoughts of her will be less frequent. The question you need to ask yourself is what would you do if your ex wanted you back? Would you be with her again? If the answer is yes, then you are not ready to date again. If it's just memories and you have no desire to be back with her, then I'd say go for it with the new woman. You'll make new memories, whether it be with her or future women you'll date. Good luck.
