Ex and attraction

3 replies

Blueskies13 · 29/05/2023 11:19

Ex and I separated fairly recently after a long time together. My attraction to him was his personality more than physical, I think. For him possibly the other way round. He has a new gf. About a month ago I thought I was imagining that he was checking me out. But it keeps happening. Talking to my boobs rather than my face sometimes and a few other scenarios. Have you experienced this? Do I say something?! Or let him carry on! I don’t know what to think….

Well I can understand you might be in the "mourning phase" since the relationship ended recently... it's okay to feel like that.... Wether the attraction was physical or personality wise there was a reason why you were together in the first place. My advice would be just allow yourself to mourn the end of the relationship and eventually you will find someone else in the future ...

Any particular reason he is still hanging around? You have kids together or something?

I'd be inclined to go 'helloooo, my face is up here'.
But maybe worth just ignoring it if you have to see him often.

After a long time together if all he still sees in you is your boobs then he's a waste of oxygen. Avoid him as much as possible.

Doesn't it make you glad that you're not with the kind of sleazy guy who does obviously check women out even when got a GF. Can't say its showing his personality in a great light either.
Hold your head up high - while he er, looks down - "see this, well you can't have this, ever". Be glad you aren't with him anymore.
