Question - (23 October 2007) 3 Answers - (Newest, 23 October 2007)
A male United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

This might be a bit strange, but I just wanted to see if anyone has experienced the same thing.

I really miss my ex, and tonight.. I can almost sort of... Smell her. On my body.

It's so strange. I just happened to have a sniff inside my shirt and it reminded me of how she smelt. I don't want you to think I'm wearing womens deodorant or anything, because I don't mean that, I mean a natural sort of smell. It's impossible though, because I just showered today, and I have not seem her for months.

Has anybody else found this happen, where they miss somebody and are reminded of them through things like this?

Blue_Angel0316 agony aunt Different things can bring association to sight, smell, touch or the mention of certain things. Maybe you are wearing a cologne that she likes. It reminds you of her. Or perhaps it was her favorite shirt you have on. Your senses can be very affective at association with the help of your subconcious mind. It is phycological association when your mind remembers.

My husband was over seas for 14 months. I slept with a pillow which belonged to him. I snuggled up to it each night and cried. I missed him so much. For many months his scent still lingered although I am quiet sure that the smell of his cologne had long since gone away. The smell of his skin,his body against mine was fresh in my mind. When he came home after 14 months I had recalled how the memory had lingered and the the scent of him still permeated the air. I related the cologne scent to my husband and my subconcious mind remembered.

God be with you in your heart for you are not alone.

All of the time. It can be a smell, a song, a date, anything. Do not let it bother you. If you dwell on it, you will only miss her more. Keep moving forward, not back.
