How do you get over your ex-boyfriend who you dated for two years if you broke up with him five months ago because he was too possessive yet you still think about all the good times you had with him?

Answer 1

What you are going through is a grieving process. Grief is not just reserved for those loved ones that have passed away. One can grieve over a split relationship (including divorce), losing your home to fire/flood or other natural catastrophe's or losing a pet. You had a lot of good memories together and as humans all of us wonder when going through a break-up what we did wrong, weren't we good enough or just plain "what happened!" We like to think we're doing everything right, but putting two people together in a close relationship and especially when there is sex involved can just become complicated at times. Sometimes we've misjudged that good old chemistry that makes for a successful relationship. I'm a firm believer in fate. I think we date different people and ride along the highway of life. We have heartbreaks, we make mistakes but then we finally come to our final road stop and that's when we find the right person. Although you may feel now you love this person with all of your heart he is not the right one for you and once you get over the grieving process and move on you can be sure that in the near future you will meet someone else and be so glad you did move on. In most cases we can look back on people we have dated and kiss the ground because we are so happy we didn't settle for a serious relationship back then. I know I have.
