So imagine your boyfriend/girlfriend is going out with a new person and your ex gf/bf is in love with them and extremely happy...but we (sometimes) end up disliking new gf or bf and wanting our x's to go back to us because we think that their (new bfs/gfs) love is not as good as ours..we would treat them better...we are always better...but come on? isn't truly loving a person is also being happy for them? and if they are happy with a new person...well..isnt that great? good for them? we should be happy knowing that the person we care about is enjoying life..but not many of us can do that. but Can we?? Can we ever stop being so possessive or is this human nature? and if yes..then HOW?

Telling yourself to be happy for your EX is easier said than done.. If you truly feels this way, you're a hypocrite because your not being true to yourself.. You may say "I'm happy for them" but deep inside, you are saying "I wish you two would break-up" or "I wish my EX would return to me" or other things which will end up to your favour..
It's a nature of people to be quite possessive but one way or another, they would eventually release themselves from it.

I don't know if that ever stops. I guess it depends on how much you loved the person. If you dated for like 2 weeks, then get over it. But, if it was a couple years and you grew to love them, then it's hard, and I'm not sure if it ever stops. I still look at my ex-fiance's girlfriends/flings, and say how much better I treated him than they do. But, sometimes (in a few cases) it's actually true. Anyway, I don't think you can really control those feelings. But, good luck to you trying.

That got really confusing you may want to simplify that.
