Do You Ever Miss Your Ex When There's No Reason to?

Question

like, there's absolutely nothing between you and him anymore. You both broke up mutually and amicably simply because the relationship had no potential or basis. But for some reason, you still want them around even if there is like no emotional connection left? It sucks! I miss the guy....

Answer 1

put it this way. your ex-partner was not just someone whom you could forget, because you most likely treated him more than a partner, but a (best)friend, lover, even family; thus it's quite understandable to want to be with that person even if your relationship went nuts. and is it really possible to completely cut off emotional connections? i believe that you can belittle or devalue it as much as you want, dismiss it as irrelevant to your present life, but that connection will remain there.

anyway, to answer your question, of course i miss my ex. and she misses me too, but we're not necessarily looking to reestablish our past relationship.

Answer 2

Its understandable that you feel this way. Perfectly normal, especially as you broke up on good terms. You miss his company and his friendship. Why not contact him and see if he would like to get together sometime.. as friends. Let him know what although you dont have those feelings for him anymore, you miss his friendship.. and if possible, tell him why. Did he make you laugh, just good conversation.. something like that maybe. Best of luck hun..

Answer 3

i understand you.thats the problem we'girls' have.we always think about the past.im in a same situation.i miss my ex alot.it was me that broke up but now i think i was wrong.i dont know why i feel like this.
i think you need to make yourself busy,try to have fun with your friend,discover neww things and new people it helps you to not to think about him alot.
maybe you need to have more emotional relationship to get over him.do you have a bf now? if you have a bf,concentrate only in your relationship with him and dont let the past events ruin your present life.good luck dear

Answer 4

Its normal i guess, i miss him soemtimes especially when its raining, coz that when we started our relationship. He used to pick me up, and id get wet with rain, then id look up and say im so wet waiting for you, and he would look well amused. Iguess its normal, remember the grass is always greener ont he other side. He's best left in the past!

Answer 5

I used to. Through the years I kept him neatly tucked up on a nice little pedestal. Thankfully one day he knocked himself off. Nothings as good as you remember it being. If it was, one of you would have fought harder to hold on. Dont look back. Move forward. It gets better. I promise.

Answer 6

Neruda a famous poet says that when time forgets to bring us love, we often go back, feeling nostalgic with previous love.... That's true.... sometimes it happens.. Maybe you have no reason to miss him, but the thing that you're lonely makes it reasonable... or maybe you really miss him

Answer 7

It's just the attachments that hard to get rid of, it's insanely hard to do so. The only way to be able to get rid of it quick is to just jump on another boat, other wise, it will be there possibly excess of 10 years.

Answer 8

it's because you just get used to him to feel him around you all the time specially if you were togather for long time and you don't miss them you actually remember them when you do certain things u used to do it togather but don't worry you will forgot him by time just find ur self another bf and thats it
