Yes. I dated my ex-boyfriend for three years. We were planning on getting married, but we broke up for very personal reasons. It was the right choice, but it was one of the most difficult things I have ever had to do. For a long time after that, I thought that I still loved him and always would. I didn't know how or if I would ever love someone again. I definitely didn't think it could be as wonderful as my ex had been when things were good. But what I've learned over the years is that each time you fall in love, you think it's better than it could ever be. Eventually, you break up and fall in love with someone new all over again and you think that's better than the one before. The fact is, you will always care for those people that you truly loved. Some day, though, you will meet someone and you will know that it's truly the right person. My ex tried to get back with me a few times after we broke up. We had been together for a long time and were still friends, but I knew that it wasn't right to be together. After a few years of pain and lots more boyfriends that just didn't pan out, I finally met the love of my life. We are getting married in a year and I'm so glad that I wasn't with my ex at the time so I was open and ready for this stage of my life. My advice is to cherish the good memories you have with your ex, but do not go back to them, because you could close a door for someone better who is coming your way.

Yes. I was with my ex for two years... We were on getting married. We broke up due to a lot of reasons that were out of my control. It has been over two years since we broke up. I have moved on, had other relationships and even fallen in love again. But I find myself wanting him back sometimes. Mostly when a relationship has ended, or I am feeling lonely the holidays are especially hard. I know that is not where I want to be or need to be but sometimes I want to turn back the clocks and never walk out on him. I know in the long run I am better off but the love that we had was a special love and I will never have exactly that ever again. I am not saying I will not have a love just as strong but just not the same. We like what is familiar to us. Humans hate change.

I think if you loved that person or cared about them, there will be feelings after the break up. Though if you moved on, its important not to act on those feelings during weak moments

It happens to the best of us. It just shows how much you truly cared about the person. It's hard to let go when you loved someone.

We divorced , moved on, and he passed away. He died in 2001 and I didn't know that I had still cared for him until I found out that he had died.

You leave one another as friends--a good thing--so its only natural to hold a spot in your heart of them --it never goes away and let that too be a good thing-- :-) better to have love and lost --Than to have never have loved at all--
