I was with my ex for almost 8 years. Last october on Halloween night, I found out he was seeing another girl behind my back the countless nights he'd go out with the 'boys' and leave me home alone...worried and wondering where he was. We had such a healthy relationship, but got rocky as we started the process of buying a house (his idea)...and he resorted to cheating because 1) fear of commitment and 2) my lack of giving him sexual attention. It was an opportunity in front of him and the attention he got was soo addicting, that it broke us.
I met someone since then that is someone that I've always dreamed of. Has all the traits I wanted my ex to have, my exact match. He's my clone, and our connection is like no other. But its different from the connection I had before with my ex...which still seems to be stronger. I'm having such a tough time letting go of my past...and I'm afraid it may really hurt the amazing opportunity I have with this wonderful man in front of me now.
I think about my ex every second of every day, and the guy i'm seeing now is hurt because his love for me isn't strong enough for me to let go of my last love .
