my boyfriend Joey and I have been together for about 2 and half years now. Everything was perfect until up about 6 months ago, before then there was no question who i wanted to spend my life with. About 6 months ago, I began feeling like i wanted to be single again, a little later my ex-boyfriend starts contacting me and i even had thoughts of cheating on him,ever since i have been obsessing over my ex(he has a girlfriend now)but i still think about him constantly. im just confused in why my opinion can change so easily. Ive ignored this feeling thinking that it would pass and here I am 6 months later in the same position. Joey and I are really close and i see him everyday and everytime i look at him i think about it and it really is torturing me. So I guess my question is: Why am i constantly thinking about my ex-boyfriend, and what can i do to get on with my life?

A female reader, anonymous, writes (22 July 2006):

i've been in your situation before, and it's extremely confusing. one minute you're head over heels for someone, then the next, you're all about someone else. and deciding what you really want is like hell - especially since you guys have been together for so long, and so much is riding on your decision. the thing is, you really have to weigh your options here. if you think your ex has feelings for you, too, then maybe you should consider being with him again. because in my mind, you wouldn't be thinking about him so much if you didn't truly like him. but if you don't think it's meant to be, or if you don't think he feels the same, the best thing you can do is close him out of your life completely and try and shut your mind off to him. eventually, your current boyfriend will win over your thoughts and everything will be fine again. but weigh your options. and once you've made a decision, stick to it.
