This feels like a confession.
Since separating from my ex 7 years ago, I have married and now have 2 kids and everything is fine. Thing is, I seem to have a problem with letting go. It's rediculous; he is now married etc and yet I have found myself checking in to his profile on facebook. I love my dh, but nothing will ever compare to the bond I had with my ex. I feel very guilty but I find it compelling to look. It's dangerous and unhealthy I know. I miss his friendship but also know it would be a huge mistake to contact.
I hate throwing things away and left to my own devices would probably be one of those horders you see on tv. This is all linked, right?
People say 'let go' and 'move on' etc, but no-one ever tells you how. I am focusing on the here and now, but clearly not as much as I should be.
Any suggestions?
Maybe this thread should be posted somewhere else? SO confused.
