I feel jealous now that my ex-boyfriend has a new girlfriend

Question - (23 May 2013) 2 Answers - (Newest, 24 May 2013)
A female India age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've dated this guy when i was in school. He was my first boyfriend but we broke up after 5 months, we were still young and didn't know how to work things out.

Now that 7 years pass we remain friends, we still keep in touch and some days we would just hang out and do crazy stuffs.

Ok! That's not my problem, my problem is last week I met his brother and he told me he's dating one of my friends. I didn't know how to react at that time. I never felt this way before, I don't know whether I still like him or... I know she's just using him for her benifits and last night I saw them together I was so angry that I didn't even talk to them.

I don't know why I'm getting so jealous. Is it possible that I still have feelings for him after all these years? And if so why didn't realize it before? I don't know what to do please help guys... And thanks in advance.

Telling her not to be angry and that he's free to do whatever he wants is not really helpful and comforting.

Maybe you are jealous and angry because you dont have anybody for yourself or you dont like his new girlfriend because of some other personal towards you reasons.

Take a deep breath and think about your feelings. Do you really need him? Like him? Love him? Does your relationship status and frustration over the same decide how you're goin to react or you really have deep emotions?

Would you be happy with him or with anyone else?

It's hard to move on after break up no matter how many years have passed.

Try to focus on yourself, your career, your friends and not on them. :) good luck

(It says you are 18-21)

OP according to your age and what you say, you were 11-14 when you were together? OP you and him were just children back then. He is now a grown man, not the same young boy you dated as a kid.

Why are you angry? He is free to date whomever he wishes and is probably very happy with his sleeping arrangements. To blank them both out of jealousy when you had a five month "relationship" as children isnt very mature!

You really need to move on, its not like you had a serious relationship with him over a long period.
