Everything is so good with my girlfriend, so why do I have recurrent thoughts about my ex?

Dear Cupid

I've been with my current girlfriend for nearly 19 months years and I love her with all my heart. Everything is great between us.

For some reason, every now and again, I think of my ex fiance who I was with for over 3 years.

Me and my ex fiance broke up around 3 years ago as she was going through a 'change in direction' period of her life. But, when i think of her recently I get a strong urge to get in contact with her, just to see if she has changed. We haven't been in contact for over 3 years.

These thoughts and feelings have only started in the last 2-3 months.

Am I wrong in having these thoughts about my ex? Why so after all this time? Does this mean anything?

19 months is the the time when you start to think "hold on; what if it goes pear-shaped now" and you're wondering why your ex split with you so you can talk and never have your current girlfriend have a "change in direction" too, you're not wrong to have these thoughts. You're conserned that it might not last with your current girl like it didn't with your last one.

Devil's Advocate agony auntYou were with your ex for a while and I would say that it is normal for thoughts of what could have been to enter your mind. You say that you love your current girlfriend with all your heart and that should be enough to tell you that you shouldn't be lingering on these thoughts of your ex. Let sleeping dogs lie and get on with your life with your current partner.
