I was with my ex for like two years then on and off for a year after that. He dipped in 2020 and the last time we hooked up was probably 2023. I moved cities in 2021 but whenever I visited we'd link. That breakup was BRUTAL lowkey lost myself for a bit. He was my first love and no one's been in my dreams as much even when I wasn't thinking 'bout him for months he'd just pop up anyone else get that with an ex??
I dated a bit but never found that same vibe you know the love the humor the connection the whole package. Now I've been with my current dude for two years and he's cool adventurous got a whole squad tries hard loves me my fam digs him. But connecting emotionally is kinda hard and I get these doubts sometimes. Like some days I see a future some days I'm just ??? And I always compare it to my ex it just felt easier more connected you feel me? Maybe it's nothing tho.
But my ex has been hitting me up again lately. First he said his new relationship wasn't the same as what we had. Now they've broken up and he texts me sometimes saying he's thinking 'bout me. I'm overwhelmed and don't wanna hurt anyone but also don't know how to act. Can't really talk to my current dude 'bout this he's not really open with feelings and stuff. But I'm thinking (and dreaming) 'bout my ex again. Any thoughts or advice?

You have something that's stable and beautiful and Looking for chaos in its place means that there are some residual feelings that are there and have been there untouched.Tap into them and you will find the way to making a choice full of awareness
Dreaming about an ex is normal, but don’t let the past distract you from building something meaningful in the present.
You’re overwhelmed because it’s a lot and that’s valid. But make sure your decision is based on your feelings not his timing.
If your current relationship has doubts focus on fixing that first before entertaining past love. Clarity comes with time.
Your ex is reaching out because he feels the loss now but where was that energy before? Look forward not back.
You’re not alone in feeling this past love has a way of creeping back in. But compare who makes you feel safest not just who feels familiar.
First love hits different but growth means recognizing when a past chapter isn’t meant to be reopened.
Bruh you can't be riding two horses at once fr. Gotta be real with your current dude and tell him you still got feels for your ex. If he wants to stick around while you figure things out that's on him tho. So like buckle up and see what happens.
