PoppyLove89 Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 You always hear of people saying, "I'm still not over my ex". (I'm talking about dumpers that we know as friends) Here's my question: If you're still not over you ex, why aren't you together?! Surely unless there was cheating/abuse involved, there's nothing you can't work through if you still have feelings for them? PEOPLE MAKE NO SENSE.
Cmac Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Being attached to someone and being in love with them aren't the same thing
Author PoppyLove89 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 I think being attached to someone when you aren't in love with them just means they're a habit - you're used to having them around. This isn't what I mean by my thread though

Author PoppyLove89 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 Surely if you aren't in love with someone anymore, you're open to dating other people? That's what makes no sense to me. I'm 22.
Author PoppyLove89 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 Haha making sure for what? Does this site have age restrictions?
smudge21 Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Every situation is different, and I guess you're asking this either for personal reasons or for someone you know. People can still love their ex but for a variety of reasons actually being together just doesn't work out. In the same sense, I know of couples who stay together and who aren't in love, but do so for reasons such as financial or they have children, or simply because they want to share their lives but they don't have those feelings. Sadly love and relationships aren't always black and white so despite you thinking things should be one way, they often aren't.
Philosoraptor Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Love does not make compatibility. I loved my ex but we just couldn't figure out how to be happy together as there wasn't enough compatibility.
Ginger Beer Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 I'm not over my ex but I don't want her with me because she's a bad person. Isn't that normal?
Philosoraptor Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 I'm not over my ex but I don't want her with me because she's a bad person. Isn't that normal? Yes. If you can't respect your partner for who he or she is then of course you wouldn't want them back.
