Exes You Don't Get Over

Yes. This is a thing, but more importantly, you should think about why you feel this way. Maybe reflect on what went wrong, and eventually you will be able to let go, slowly. And it will hurt less with time.

I have an ex that, to be completely honest, was terrible towards me. But the sex was great and everyone since hasn't been nearly as good in that respect.
The way we ended it was what really left me hurt in the end and lingering on sort of wanting him back despite that I know we were shit for one another. It's been seven years and I'm still not entirely over it, I just try not to think about it much.

Does your name start with a K? Because that could describe one of my past relationships pretty well (even the amount of years).

Speaking of that relationship, for a long time, I thought I wouldn't get over it, but I did. It was a combination of moving on and realizing how much it was hurting me at the time. Even though I'm over the relationship, sometimes I still think about the ex and wonder what things would have been like under different circumstances, so maybe I'm not completely over her. But that's what most people sa is supposed to happen with your first love.

My name is a K-name, yeah, but I'm in doubt about you being who I'm thinking of. I don't think he really cared about me much in the end when I went over things in my head once I was able to step back from it and not just be an emotional piece of shit.

We almost tried to patch up a friendship a few years ago but I realized that I couldn't just be friends with him. I wanted him entirely or not at all so I cut him from my life. I even deleted a bunch of common friends off social media to help make the divide bigger. Clearly it only worked so well since I'm still thinking about him years down the road. Kill me.

No, not really. I don't exactly remember the amount of time but probably only around a year. Maybe more or less. It was too long ago to get a much clearer idea than that. He was the first guy I was ever really into though. I had dated before him, but I was just caught up so emotionally by him that it really left a deep mark in me somehow.

Plus he smelled and tasted amazing and had hands like a fucking god. Sex these days is so incredibly boring since him. He was patient with me too since I was a scared little virgin at that point in my life as well.

So, it's really just a bunch of things that came together to weave this ideal in my head, I guess, that's left me wanting something like that again. It's done and over though and I just shrug my shoulders for the most part.

Same here, anon except I dated my person for 4 years. It's been 4 years since we split, and I've dated someone else long term since then, but I'm still not over my ex. I think it was just because the sex was so great, and he hurt me so much throughout the relationship, but I forgave him every time.

I just try not to think about it.

After seeing her with a bunch of dumb cunts (and questioning whether I was one too) I got over it fast.
