my ex and i broke up almost a year ago. she’s moved on completely but somehow i still feel stuck in the same place. i even got into another relationship after her and when that ended all it did was make me realize i never really stopped missing my first ex.
the weird part is she was on my mind the entire time. it never ruined my new relationship but the feelings never fully left either. every now and then it would hit me all over again and i’d fall into this heavy sadness i couldn’t explain.
i miss everything about her even though i know she probably wants nothing to do with me anymore. i keep trying to move on but for some reason i just can’t let her go.

i stayed hung up on my first ex through an entire other relationship too, and the guilt of that messed me up almost as much as the heartbreak itself. some people just leave fingerprints on you that don’t fade easy
you miss HER specifically, or the version of life and comfort you had when she was still there?
It can often take some time to move on, especially if you had something long-term or intense. I think you did well to try and build another relationship but it doesn't sound like your heart was in it. How long was the relationship? Are there any unresolved things from the past ex you're still lingering on?
