[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes he's far in the distance, like a little treasure of warm memories locked away. But sometimes he haunts me. He's in my dreams and then it crosses over into my waking life. Sometimes the dreams are romantic, other times it's not. I haven't seen him in close to 20 years, since I visited him in grad school. I thought I had it figured out why I think of him so often — we never really got to give it a go, so I thought it was because it was unresolved, or maybe because he rejected me a few times (and I him others, but we did date on and off)...  but truly, I do NOT understand why I think of him so often. I can't imagine I occupy as much headspace for him. We are both married with children. My husband is amazing and I love him and he fulfills me.

Has anyone gone through this? Were you able to put them out of your mind for the most part? I've tried squashing it, indulging it, googling him and seeing we don't have much in common anymore. It doesn't work. I hate wasting energy on this. If I ever saw him again, I'd feel he was an old friend but I'd probably blush profusely knowing how often I think of him. It's embarrassing.

Stop stalking him on social media.[/quote]
