Wow, now there's a question. Now and again, I suppose. She was an American by birth but she moved to Europe before she could even talk so she didn't really know America apart from going back every summer when school was out. She cheated on me in an online thing with a guy from America. I guess she felt deprived of an American upbringing and wanted an American boyfriend (although technically, he was Chinese). I guess it hurt him too, because he was there first and I was the impostor (not that I knew).
It hurt at the time (to say the least) but it makes sense now. Maybe I'd have done the same with an English girl if I'd have been brought up in another continent. I probably would. I'd have been curious to know what Englishness was.
She came back to do her doctoral degree here and I know she wanted to meet again but I didn't want to and we didn't.
I think of her once a month, or so. But it's never thoughts of getting back together. It's just visiting the past for a while. I'm glad I have it, and I still think about it, but it's more important to live in the now and make some new memories.
Guys only: How often do you think about your first love..I.e ex gf?
