A male United States age 41-50, *orgotten_Me writes:

I am a 25 year old male that has had a few substantial relationships in my day, but my last "girlfriend" simply stays implanted in my head. As we dated I found myself falling more and more deeply in love with her, but she didn't feel the same way. Though we are still extremely good friends that talk on a daily basis after a year of being apart, my feelings haven't changed towards her.

Still, a year later I'm comparing potential daters to her and second guessing my decisions in life. The girl in question and I, obviously separated on mutual terms, but my life is consumed with her leaving me. What should I do about this? We've talked several times about getting back together, but our lives are in different places!

rcn agony auntYour doing this as an attempt to pick up where you left off with your ex. When we have strong feelings, we don't want to change the situation with a chance our feelings may be less than they are.

Treat people as individuals. The relationship with your ex will always be part of your history. Give yourself permission to begin a new chapter and different experiences with someone else.

tick-tick-boom agony auntWell, that's a tough one.

Listen, If you really,really like her show her.

You have to let her know and sometimes telling her just wont do it.

Show her just how much she means to you, show her how inlove you are and show her she is the BEST person in your life.

If she is currently considering getting back with you thats a HUGE bonus because she obviously likes you.

Man, i hope it works out for you!

Good Luck X
