silentcharon Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 To make a story short, I've moved on from a 7 year ltr nearly a year ago now and all that, I'm dating someone else right now. Our relationship is still fairly new, and I really, really like him. I know he's really into me as well- we really enjoy our time together. However, I have a question. Last night, my BF dropped me off at my house as I wanted to get his present ready, (that's why he couldn't stay over ). I went to bed and for some reason I couldn't go to sleep even though I was exhausted. I started thinking about how my BF touches me whenever we cuddle, and then the ex suddenly creeped into my mind, and I soon found myself comparing him to my new bf. This made me feel really guilty- it was odd, because I'm really into my new bf and I am so over my ex. I was comparing how my new bf's touches were different than my ex's, and how they were different as persons themselves. Things like that. I was wondering if this is normal, or if this is a red flag sign that I'm not as over my ex as I thought I was? If indeed, what should I do? I really, really like my new boyfriend and even though we're taking it slow (at my request), I'm afraid of screwing it up. Any insight would be appreciated.
KittenMoon Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 SC- You know I can't speak from experience, but since I know your situation, let's remember it wasn't that long ago your ex was still touching you. I think in time you will forget that touch. I mostly have- it's been 9 months since even a hug from him. I can still rememer some touch, but they are very specific, and even they are getting vaguer......
