need2bme Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I had an appointment today and afterwards, went to get some lunch where the ex and I used to hang out. I went to the restroom and as I was standing getting ready to dry my hands, I thought, "Hmmm, the last time I was here, I was quite happy and content and was thinking how lucky I was to FINALLY be in a loving long-term relationship." Then I snapped back into reality and just kinda smirked to myself and the thought process changed to, "Wow, I guess you were just wrong...". So, I started to think (not so much as in blaming, or that she did not love me at the time), but how many times has someone thought someone or some relationship was going a certain way, only to find out the relationship was doomed OR worse yet, that someone was not who you thought they were? Anyway, just something that popped into my crazy brain...;-) Link to comment
blueyes85 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Can totally relate to this! I will see/hear something that reminds me of the ex and think back to when things were better. Like with Valentine's Day approaching...arrrgh...I think back to last Valentine's Day, when I was on cloud nine with an amazing new boyfriend. I think this happens to everyone...you think you've met The One and things couldn't be better, and then overnight, everything changes and/or you see a totally new side of the person. It's no fun!

scotty77 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I don't think it is a question of being ''wrong'' but life is a transitionary thing.People change and often what felt right doesn't feel right anymore. Link to comment
tao_of_me Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 ^^I often get those "last time I was here/in this situation/doing this and I was still with the ex..." feelings in some situations too. Definitely kind of bittersweet, but you just have to try to force them out of your mind and remember that you're in new situations everyday having new experiences and making new memories yourself.

Anotherday Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I've had two relationships go south in a short amount of time, after going to this one particular restaurant. They literally ended the night of that place and on birthdays. So...me being superstitious, I am going to go back to that restaurant by myself soon and erase any bad karma Link to comment
