sexi agony auntHi, it is normal seeing as you have been with your ex for 2 years. You have said that he has lied and hurt you before so dont forget that - That is why he is your ex and not your present. You have made a good decision, stick by it. In time you would stop thinking about your ex, this time would pass.

Regards,mail me if you wanna talk

HonningKanin agony auntIts completely normal to feel that way even if the relationship was bad. You spent two years with someone and you gave them your heart and you spent a good majority of the time caring about this person. This just doesn't switch off for most people. This just shows you that you are a compassionate person and your not cold hearted.

You still care for your ex because you remember the positive about him thus you remember him fondly and even miss him. I don't truly believe people can just stop loving someone. You can stop being inlove, but not love someone and in turn you still care about him.
