Can anyone else relate to this?
We had been in a relationship for 2 1/2 years (not living together). I ended things romantically almost 6 months ago (after much fretting about hurting his feelings) because I could not see a future with him and didn't think we were compatible. I still think that and know it was the right thing for both of us. We remained friendly with him still coming round, keeping in touch daily and helping out with things (though sometimes this almost seemed like him wanting to keep the door open so to speak though I was careful to keep things friendly only).
So why am I upset now that he has moved on and is dating someone new? I only found out as I saw his profile on a dating website and asked him about it. I'd made a profile without intending to date as I know I'm not ready to, just wanted to see what was out there. Up comes his profile at the top of the search list and first thought was "oh, ok". Then "good on you". Then I got peeved as he had not said he was looking to date again. Just sort of felt that he was keeping quiet about it, probably because there wasn't much to say.
I don't get why I feel so blooming teary about it? I'm not attracted to him so what's wrong with me?!! :-/
