I have never really fully recovered from losing my first love 18 years ago when I was at university. I think about him everyday and wonder what he might think or say and I feel a little like I have been waiting for years for him to come back to me all this time. I last saw him about 15 years ago and I think I kept thinking we would bump into each other again when the time was right but it hasn't happened. I've recently learned from a friend that while he is still single he is now living in another country and has been for 10 years. I didn't even know I just kept dreaming I'd bump into him.
I have met a nice man but I feel like I am blocked from letting him into my life because I'm still in love with someone else. I have to make myself understand that I will never see my first love again, that he has totally forgotton me and moved on with his life.
How do I let go of him when I've loved him so much all these years without seeing him and when I will never see him again?
