[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still feel like this about an ex after 15+ years. Hasn't dissipated one bit.

Go back to him if he was the love of your life.

Not OP but this is exactly what I'm afraid of.[/quote]

Yes I agree this is a danger, especially because the reason OP gave for breaking up was not truly insurmountable. [/quote]

Well, she was the one who got dumped.  The thing is: it's now a fantasy, not the committment-fearful real human being.

I have a woman in my past who I still think of all.the.time even though I'm quite happily married and quite in love with my DW.  There are plenty of women in my past who I was with much longer than the one "who got away", and I almost never think of them.  But, when I stop and think about why I am fixated on "the one who got away", I realize it's mostly because of the big ego wound I got out of being dumped.  I remember what actually trying to be in a relationship with her was like, and I am just gobsmacked at home much better my marriage is.

Don't go back OP and please do not imagine they are the "love of your life".  Try to remind yourself of the shitty parts too - the part where he utter flaked on you.  Seriously.  We all practice sentimental hygiene and forget the bad parts of our past, recalling only the good stuff.  That's part of why the person is a fantasy.  [/quote]
