My ex and I broke up about 2 years ago. He broke up with me. I guess I took the rejection pretty hard..but anyway now I'm talking to this guy but I can't stop thinking about my ex. It's not that I want to get back together with him I think I just missed what we had. Me and the new guy aren't their yet with our relationship. Does this mean I'm still in love with my ex ?

I have experienced the same exact problem in the past. It's possible you are still in love with your ex, but more than likely you miss the relationship you had with your ex or how he made you feel while you were together. If you were especially close or had a tight emotional bond it is understandable that you still have an emotional connection. After all, once you are in love with someone, there's always a piece of them in your heart and you will always have some love for them no matter how long you've been apart. It's ok to still feel warm and fuzzy for your ex a little bit. It doesn't mean that you want to get back together with him or that something is wrong with you. You may need more time to move past those strong feelings for your ex. Just do what you feel is right and don't feel bad about yourself for still holding on. Good luck.

I know exactly what you're going through. It took me a long time to realize that sometimes you have to let go of the past, but hold on to the memories! (Memories will neva' fade no matter how hard you try). And in a way thats a good thing, because it holds a special place in your mind and heart! But, maybe you still do have Love for your ex- and I don't think its that much of a bad thing. Yet you never know, those feelings might turn into you wanting him back... later... so let him know, (if thats an option). Don't let the one you KNOW you care about walk out your life, cause you might not neva' get him or "it" back! GOOD LUCK

It takes time as you have seen to fully get over someone. Part of still being in the "getting over" stage is comparing a new relationship with the prior one, which means you are not yet ready to enter into a new relationship.. You see this new guy as not being able to measure up to your ex boyfriend. This is normal. Try taking this new relationship slow. Start off as just being friends and getting to know one another. You might be surprised that by doing this it takes the pressure off expecting him to measure up to certain standards and expectations. Hope you begin to feel better.

It's just human nature to feel like "the grass is greener on the other side"...I think people have an inherent tendency to remember their ex's and compare their current relationships to past ones. You will probably look back on your ex for a long time, but it doesn't mean that you're still in love with him. It seems that you miss the support you had from your previous relationship and are eager to get back to that same point in your new relationship.

2 years is a long time. You might still be in love with him. If it was a relationship that had a big impact on you you may love him forever. You will have to learn how to love him but not be obsessed with him and what you had. Meet other guys give them a chance try to get your ex off your mind.

Your adorable! I am so glad you shared this. And I will say a specail prayer for your broken heart. You will get over him someday. There is absolutely nothing wrong with you! You are the kind of girl that a good guy would love to spoile forever! I know it's tough ... but you will survive.

Be patient with yourself. Go to the library or bookstore and find books on what your going through. It sounds like to me you were very emotionally attached to your ex boyfriend. That can take sometime to readjust. Your not alone some girls have the ability to attach to their BF deeply and that's a good thing. Take your time. Be well and Best Wish's

Nothing is wrong with you. Your just a very caring and passtionate girl and you sound like your moving on by seeing this new guy. Love like you've never been hurt and dance like nobodys watching. You sound like a really sweet girl and I hope you can get over your ex ... you deserve a good man.

Not one darn thing is wrong with you! You are just going through growing pains and it's hard to let go of people we care about. Go buy yourself a pretty dress, new perfume and go home take a nice bubble bath and wash that man right out of your hair (this is what my sister does) I know it's hard ... take it easy.
