Can’t shake this feeling?

[AmyFarrafowler]

Split up with ex boyfriend about 2 months ago. We were only together 6 months so it wasn’t a long relationship. I can’t get over this feeling that I really need to talk to him.

I’ve tried to think of all the things I don’t like about him. I’ve tried talking to new people on dating apps. I don’t let myself think about him that much. But every few days I just get this really strong feeling that I need to talk to him. It’s like a physical feeling in my chest rather than just a thought, if that makes sense. How can I stop myself feeling like this?

It will just go away with time op, heartbreaks sucks no matter how long you were together. Unfortunately there is no magic cure. What was the reason for the breakup?

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I believe in taking courage -- if the relationship wasn't abusive and after two months you still have strong feelings for him, I think there's nothing wrong with dropping him a text to see how he's doing.

Contact him, in worse case it might help closure or maybe you could work out what went wrong and see him again.
