It’s been 5 years and I still miss him

[Daisy556]

I once dated a guy, he was the love of my life, but he left me just disappeared out of my life. Stopped messaging, changed his number but never blocked me on social media though since then I’ve deleted all my accounts that he knew of me and made new ones.
the thing is I feel so stupid for still thinking of him from time to time, I dreamt of him last night and he’s been on my mind all day. Usually I go weeks to months without thinking of him but today I miss him.
will This feeling of still wanting him ever go?
I want to forget his existence, I don’t want to miss him anymore..

Are you in a relationship now?

I'm sorry. What a painful thing to have your heart broken. It's normal to think of someone we feel so strongly for many years later. It's like thinking of someone we love who died. The relationship ended in a traumatic way and you'll always wonder what if because from your side it didn't run it's course and the love was still there.

What made you think of him today ? What made you miss him ? Do you haev new friends ? What i your life made of today ?
You describe him as the love of your life. Yet nothing happened between you for all this time ? Are you single ? Is he single ? If yes what are you waiting for ? Why don't you contact him and try to make things work ? If he is with someone today, accept that he has moved on. The love of your life might still be on his way. You might find that your perfect partner will have all the characteristics of this one and more. The major add on will be that he will stay with you for sure. Even if things did not work out you can still be thankful for what you have learned in this relationship. All the best OP.
