I still love my ex. We were only together a couple of years and broke up a few months ago. His brother was very unwell and he had masses of family issues, a bit of a workaholic and got very stressed. He would spend evenings not speaking and staring into space. I asked him to get help and he said he couldn’t as work was too busy. I ended up leaving. I’ve honestly never felt so sad. I loved and still love him more than anyone I’ve ever been involved with in any way.
I know there’s ‘always someone else’ and maybe his issues are too much for a relationship to really grow. But I wasn’t someone who just took anything and settled for anyone. I really fell in love.
I’ve met someone else since and it’s nice. I think about my ex a lot though. I often wonder if he was my only real love. I miss him every day.
Would you press on finding something new or would you try as rekindle things?
