How long is too long to be stuck on an ex

[raidersreceiver]

Just saying cause I was at the Blazers game tonight and I'm pretty sure I saw my ex there, as soon as I did my heart sank, she's still there in the back of my mind after 5 years brehs

5 years? That's a long time. Would you still be thinking about her if you didn't see her at the game?

Need the back story.

It took me like 8 years to fully get over an ex. I would date different girls and never think about her but, then when the relationships went south and we broke up, I would think about that particular ex again. Until I got into another relationship. Then I met a girl that was better than her in many ways and the hold was broken. That relationship didn't work out but, I don't think about the ex or feel anything for her anymore. You suffering from white buffalo syndrome OP. You think she was the best you ever had. So get out here and meet more women and you'll stop thinking she was so rare and special.

Every once in a while. She's the only girl I've ever loved

depends if you a girl or a guy.......some girls never get over it especially if you get em when they super young....I got someone from 17 and I haven't spoke to them in 4 years.....she's been blocked on everything, the only thing she has is my address which she still sends letters to





a guy nikka you just need a new bytch once someone is in place that void is gone. The only time you'll think about them other ex's is when you single and alone late at night and are either high or drunk

and besides...downtown portland got plenty of bytches to offer you can find a better joint just outside by the museum on park ave

Maybe you need a change of environment

I know I've thought about an ex since 2008 but since I've moved not so much

Truth is some you get over and forget, some will stay with you forever..just how we're wired.

They say it takes half the time of the relationship to get comfortably "over" it, which seems about right in my experience. Doesn't mean you won't miss certain things, which I do pretty often when something reminds me of them but it's

i mean, I think we all experience a little bit of that whenever we run into an old partner, especially if we weren't expecting. as far as "when" it'll happen, it probably already has. like it said, it seems you weren't expecting so when things like that happen, of course you're going to experience slight emotional response

the only times I've experienced emotional responses (and seen the woman respond too) are from women I might have slept with once and never did again, ones I never talked to or made an effort to speak to again following our first sexual interaction. usually I feel weird because I know how I can be when it comes to sex; casual comes REALLY casual to me. I'd be the type to have sex with a girl once and never talk about it again. Not like the sex was bad, sometimes sex comes off like a hand shake, meet and greet, do it and get on with your life.

OP I am in a similar situation but I am going on like 10 years.

I have just concluded that I will never get over her.

She is definitely the best I ever had. I turned her down a couple times after the second time we broke up so it's not like I "want her back". It's more like I wish I could wake up 10 years in the past on some Days of Future Past shyt. After everything that's happened there's no turning back.

But still. It breaks my heart all over again everytime I stalk her FB every several months.

As some have said before, I still get like that and it's been just over a year for me. She's messaged me and rang me in the last month but I aired all attempts at contact. Even when you know there's no way back and your better off without them it still hurts you fam.

I physically feel pain in my chest when I think of her. But I ain't no simp tho.
