[quote=Anonymous]For me, it depends on the past love, like others said. There are some I think of only when prompted - if what was "our song" comes on the radio, or if someone brings up a direct reference to that time in my life or something I did with them - "I'm thinking of going to Portugal, and heard you've been there - how was it?" and the person I went to Portugal with was an ex, that kind of thing. There is one I think of quite a bit, but it's the freshest 'big' breakup, and I'm not married to anyone else.

I think the hardest breakups to get fully over are the ones when you don't split because of lack of love. It's one thing if someone cheats on you, or does something else horrible, or if you decide you're tired of them, or vice versa. The tough ones are like yours, where it isn't because the feelings aren't there, but because of some other factor - distance, time, life goals, etc.

Sounds like you're handling it right though - not allowing thoughts to escalate to any kind of action. If it's really bothering you, maybe some therapy to discover why this one in particular crops up in your thoughts so much?
