Why can't i stop thinking about my polish ex?

Last year I met a Polish guy on a dating app. We talked for months grew very close and developed strong feelings for each other even though we never officially became a couple. Eventually we had an argument he blocked me and I did my best to move on.
A few months later he came back and asked for another chance but by then I had already started getting to know someone else. We drifted apart again. The last interaction we had was a random late-night phone call in January. He barely spoke before hanging up and I never heard from him again.
Now I'm in a healthy loving relationship with my boyfriend yet I still catch myself thinking about the Polish guy. I occasionally check his social media wonder why he called me that night and find myself stuck on all the questions that were never answered. Sometimes it affects me so much that I cry and then I feel guilty because my boyfriend has no idea I'm still carrying these thoughts.
I'm struggling to understand what this means. Do I still have feelings for him or am I attached to the unanswered questions and lack of closure? Why am I still thinking about someone who has been out of my life for so long when I'm happy in my current relationship?
