Why is it? Thoughts of the ex...

[poetsheart]

Why is it that even when I know my ex never loved me, disprespected me in many ways, never accepted me, compared me to others, kicked me out whilst living together, constantly wore me down, do I still think about him day and night???? I am kind of becoming really upset with myself because I know it's over, I just haven't seemed to stop thinking about him yet? I have been doing nc for probably nearly 2 1/2 months now...

 

Is this normal?

It is prefectly normal given it is only 2.5 months. Although there are ways you can prevent yourself from thinking about it by keeping yourself busy.

 

Good luck.

I heard that I takes 2 years to seriously be over someone. 2 months is just the beginning. Like Puppy suggested, it's good to keep yourself busy & just take one day at a time. =)

Of course it is normal and you feel this way because you are human, you have feelings and emotions. As badly as things were, the point is that you were intimately connected with another human being on some level, good, bad, ugly, and now there is disconnection and detachment. That's what hurts I think...

 

Many, many, many people mistake this for "true love", because it hurts so badly, it must have been "real" and "right". Bravo for not falling inot this trap!
