jjtr Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 My girlfriend of 1 1/2 years and the girl who I thought I would marry broke up with me in October. I took it really hard and didn't act very well in dealing with the breakup. Eventually, I came to the reality and got over the situation. I realized she had been checking out for awhile and that made me move on. I hae been dating someone new for the past few months and I couldn't be happier. She gets me, she is willing to spend time with me, and she is affectionate. All things that my ex really didn't equate to me on. Regardless of this, now and then I still think of my ex (and I feel terrible for doing so). I think about how good of a relationship we had and I still don't get why it failed. At the same time, I realize that my current girlfriend treats me far better (to this point). I don't necessarily want to write off the past, but it's just weird to sometimes still think about my ex. Do I contact her? Do I just ignore the thoughts? I guess I just don't know what to do. I have a great, new relationship, yet still sometimes think about my ex. And I don't really long for my ex, I just still think of her on occasion.
kasop Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 Are you worried that if this ex came back that you would choose her over your current relationship?
Author jjtr Posted February 27, 2016 Author Posted February 27, 2016 Are you worried that if this ex came back that you would choose her over your current relationship? Not really. I realize that she didn't really treat me as well as I deserved/wanted, but considering that she was my first, true, "love," she'll always hold a special spot. I guess it's more so worry that I'll never speak to her again.
CDJ Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I guess it's more so worry that I'll never speak to her again. Well, the key question there is: why do you want to speak to her again? I think it will help you to answer that and determine how you still feel about your ex, the situation and to some extent yourself, too.
