My current boyfriend makes me happy but I still long for my ex.

Question - (27 April 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 13 November 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Right I'm confused.

I'm in love with my ex (let's call him X), I miss him so much. But I didn't realise this until recently.

He broke up with me about a year ago. This upset me a lot. Since him I've dated 3 guys. Two of those relationships I regret. (nothing happened, just looking back I don't think it was the best idea to date them).

The third of these guys is who I'm with at the moment and have been with for 4 months (call him W). I love him, but I also love my ex. I don't know what to do.

The only way I can describe how I feel sounds really cheesy and cliché. X pretty much broke my heart, and W made he feel happy again. If I broke up with W I would be unhappy again as I don't want to lose him.

I know this isn't very clear, but there must be some people who have been through this or have some advice.

Thank you.

petina1 agony auntThe grass is always greener on the other side is what we say. Over time you have forgotten the real reasons why you broke up, they will still be there. You are remembering the good times. Going back may not do you any good and you could end up losing W which you could really go forward with and be happy. Do you still see X in your every day life and are wanting the romance of it all. Look towards W and put some more spark in to it and enjoy what you have now.
