[quote=Anonymous]So my boyfriend and I have been dating for almost 2 years now. I've been on love with him since we first met but we got off to a rocky start because he was still in love with his ex girlfriend whom he had been with for 4 years during college. We had two false starts where we went on 4 or so dates and then he'd disappear and when I forced him to respond he'd confess he still had feelings for his ex. After the second time, I tried to move on and deleted him from my phone but he'd keep sporadically texting and calling me telling me he missed me and that he screwed up.

After a few months of texting back and forth he finally asked me out and I reluctantly accepted. We've now been dating for almost two years and he's a brand new person. I know he loves me a lot and we've talked about getting married. I love him dearly and don't regret taking him back. I do, however find myself resenting him for out tumultuous start. I kind of feel robbed of the initial loves truck phase of meeting someone new where all you think about it is them and you can't get enough of each other.  When my bf and I first met, I was enamored with him and he was missing and pining for his ex girlfriend. Instead of noticing me and falling in love with me. He dumped me twice to get back with her. 
I know he is a wonderful boyfriend now and that he loves me now more than he has lived anyone else, it hurts that when we met, he was in love with someone else.

Am I being over dramatic? Is this a big deal? Has anyone else experienced something like this? [/quote]
