Why am I missing my ex so much? I was never in love but I can't forget him...

Question - (23 April 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 23 April 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I was with my ex a year - we lived together for 6 months.

He treated me very well, we got on very well, sometimes it almost seemed he could read my mind, he knew what I wanted before I did sometimes.

He was in love with me, and, although I wasn;t madly in love with him, I did love him in my own way.

Our relationship had a big lack of passion, and I feel this probably was from my part, I just saw him more as a friend/brother type and just didn't look forward to sex.

Needless to say our relationship broke down, sex isn't everything but it helps, and he became insecure, sensing that my heart wasn't in it totally, and he was the one to break it off.

5 months on and I still miss him. I don't know if it was because we were very close and comfortable with each other, or I miss the friendship, or that this is the first relationship where I have lived with someone and had to move out, which I found a big upheaval.

We have recently got back to being friends...which is probably not helping how I feel...

Why can't I stop missing him?

This is normality unfortunately honey. You're used to having him around pretty much all the time, you're just used to him! He's been such a big part of your life, and then suddenly, he's not so much any more. Everything you've been used to has gone, and you need to adjust.

I wish I knew WHY I was missing him - I don't want him back, I feel like if I knew what was keeping my emotions tied to him, I could move on then...

Don't worry I had the same problem. I never married him but we were very close. Soon after he broke up with me. I found another man thats stronger, smarter, and funnier than Cody. I see my ex almost everyday and still think, why? I was never planning to have sex with him, yet. But we "played" with each other like 3 times a week. I still miss him but you got to overcome your ex and hopefully find another love to keep your mind on this special person. I hope it helped!?!
