Can't sleep thinking of my ex's!

Hi. I can't seem to sleep tonight, and for some reason I keep thinking about my ex girlfriends.

I keep thinking about my latest ex. She was potentially the worst girlfriend I've ever had, but a part of me still seems to be dwelling on the fact that it didn't work out. She broke it off with me after about three months. I felt like I put the most work into the relationship. To me, it was probably 70/30 in my favour. The relationship seemed to be made up of little things (buying drinks for one another, going out to different places together, and of course, when the evening was at an end we'd go back to mine and have sex)(sometimes she wouldn't even stay the night. We'd have sex and then she'd go home. To some guys that would be great, but it always bugged me), and being students as we are, it would be too much to expect splashing out on anything toooo extravagant. That said, I would still be the one to buy us lunches, and I bought her an x-mas present and she bought me sod all. Money isn't what it's all about though, but i just feel that in the long run, nothing I did was really appreciated, and being the one to be tossed to the side just makes it all the worse.

She's started dating a new guy. He's on the same course as us but he's in the year above. He seems kind of plain. He's a fairly handsome guy I suppose, but I don't understand the connection they have. That said, I only found out that they were seeing each other a week or so ago, and they haven't been dating long, so it's no surprise that I hadn't noticed. I'm a little worried about what it's going to be like when I go back to uni next week. A lot of us are planning to go out for drinks, and I'm a little worried she'll bring him along. I don't know why, considering that I don't feel I should be bothered by any of this... but then, WHY CAN'T I GET TO SLEEP??

I've also been thinking about my first love tonight. I thought back to our relationship, and this evening, I don't really feel like I miss her that much... but I'm still thinking about her, and that bugs me!

Why can't I get my ex's out of my head??

I think about mine when I hit the hay too... It just happens! Perhaps deep down we miss them and need them to be lying next to us - although perhaps in your case not so much :P

Quit thinking about thinking about them and get back to counting sheep would be my advice. Perhaps even check to see your not developing insomnia?
