SiaLv82 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I was crazy over this one particular guy for years. We met right after the end of a serious relationship. By all accounts he was my "dream guy." The one I always wanted to end up marrying. Emotionally I wasn't ready and it went south due to my own unhealthy behavior. I never got over it and ended up comparing every guy afterwards to him. For four years after I secretly hoped to run into him and get it right. Well, I came across him this past week after yet another break; just in general passing. I don't know if the last guy finally did something to pull me out of it...but he doesn't seem all that great anymore. Has this happened to any of you? I mean this was someone who I "FB stalked" and dreamed of happily ever after --for yrs. I just kept it all to myself. Now I just feel ridiculous ha. So anyone else take yrs to get over someone and then realize what in the world?? :o:o
Phantom888 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 This is perfectly normal. You are seeing him objectively now, which is completely different than when you had deep feelings for him. Yes, you still thought about him over the years, but your mind also made imaginary enhancements to what you remembered. The comparison may be shocking. 1
