Question - (12 October 2007) 4 Answers - (Newest, 13 October 2007)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *owapa writes:

Why do i always keep thinking about my ex-boyfriend? We broke up like a few months ago, and went out for nearly 4 months, yet I always think about him. I want to get over him, but he sometimes pops inside of my head at times. We do sometimes keep in contact, as well... Could it be I still love him? It's weird, because I did get with other people afterwards, but... It means nothing to me after a while. Please help me.

I am basically in your situation aswel, i find that i can't help but to think about my ex-boyfriend. Even though, like yourself, you are interested in moving on with other people. I wouldn't worry, you're not still in love with him. I find now that i'm trying to move on, i think about him more, only because i tend to compare him to new relationships. Untill you find a guy that gets to know you as well as he did, and you feel close to again, you will still think about him. But don't worry, it only means he meant something to you, and this is a good thing.

I split with my ex nearly 6 years ago, he pops into my head every now and again even now,I could be doing something that reminds me of times we spent together or hear of someones terrible break up which also reminds me of him. I don't think that him crossing your thoughts means anything. Its something that just happens.

Did you have a good reason for breaking up. Is that reason still valid. If so, why are you wasting your time.

Hi,

My boyfriend of 4 months and I just broke up and I have strong feelings for him. I agree with Perioman that you need time to grieve I know that just from past relationships. You need to be grateful that you are not obsessed and that he just pops in your mind every once in awhile that is only normal. I don't know if you were in love only you know that. It is probably hard to stay in contact with him. Why did you guys break up?
