AskEve agony auntSubconsciously you must be thinking of him and aren't even aware of it. It could be a song you hear in the background that triggers your brain off or a saying you hear that he uses. The more you think about this the more it will lie in your subconscious and you'll start dreaming of him too. Maybe deep down you enjoyed what you had with him and wished it could be like that again, not particularly with him but with a special someone. You might be feeling lonely deep inside and wish you could find the closeness again with someone else and your thoughts drift into your relationship with him.

Try and keep yourself busy, the more you think about this problem the less chance it has of disappearing because you're too aware of it! So what if you think of him, it's okay to do that. Tell yourself you WANT to think of him and you'll find he won't come up as often, it's called reverse psychology. I wouldn't worry too much about it, the thoughts disappear in time.
