Why do i feel heavy after seeing my ex?

I met my ex after a month and we met normally as two normal people who once loved each other and now are seperate beings.

It was fine until we had to go seperate ways and I felt this heaviness in my chest when coming home. The whole trip I felt uneasy. it was not about the meeting that bothered me but rather his presence.

We broke up in a messy way and no way he deserves someone so good like me. He treated me like trash and afrer a month of breaking up I decided to contact and meet.

It wasnt a bad decision but idk how to deal with the uneasiness in my heart. I am open to trying ANYTHING please give me suggestions!

i took a shower, put my phone down, cried if i needed to, and reminded myself that missing their presence doesn't erase what they did to me. you don't have to make sense of it tonight.

seeing my ex again after everything felt fine while i was there, then my body completely crashed once i got home. that heaviness can hit HARD after you've held yourself together around them.

what did you do when you felt that way?

when you say his presence is what stayed with you, do you think you're missing him, or is your body remembering how badly the relationship hurt?

a little bit of both. deep inside I know I don’t want him back but I want to keep him around for my own sanity. This reminds me of the hurt but at the same time its hard to stay apart for too long

Your body is remembering how your ex used to make you feel. That feeling that made you stay when you should have left sooner. It will pass with time. Hope meeting your ex gave you the closer that you needed.
