Is it normal i can't stop thinking about my ex?

Is it normal that I haven't been able to stop thinking about my ex since the day we met? He dumped me more than a year ago but I still constantly think about him.

He has a new girlfriend now and I'm absolutely devastated when I know it shouldn't bother me. This man took my virginity, he promised to always be there, to love me forever, to marry me.

I'm so alone in my life. I have no friends, I don't go anywhere besides work. Now that he's gone, I'm basically living a hollow existence. And I was before him too. Anyways, I can't seem to stop thinking about him. I would never contact him or do anything to affect his relationship but he's messed me up.

At this point, I want to find someone but I can't stomach the thought of being withh anyone but him.

    I'm sort of in the same situation as you, I understand you completely and yeah, it's normal. The only reason why someone would say that it isn't, is because they can't relate to you. What you need to do is move on to somebody else. He has already moved on and I think it's time for you to aswell. It's hard to accept the reality of the situation but I don't think he's going to come back and you still thinking about him isn't going to help at all, it'll just lead to depression. So do yourself a favour and try to move on x

    Listen alot of people would not understand unless they went through this..
    I feel for you bcuz let's just say I completely understand going through something like this and it hurts like hell!!
    These men think it's okay to fuck around and mess up our minds and leave. I strongly believe they were made differently. I am here if you ever want to talk. :(

    Lady you need to get the fuck on with your life and stop living in the past. When you obsess over your ex and look at his social media, how does it make you feel? Like shit probably. So why do you do it? What does it achieve? Nothing. Start exercising, start eating properly, focus on your work, get on Tinder and keep your life moving forwards.

    I think the fact that you don't have a social life or friends is mostly to blame. You're clinging to one person - because that's the only person there was. There's a big empty vacuum, so naturally your mind keeps going back to the one person who used to fill it. It's not necessarily because he was so great, it's because there's no-one else.

    You probably already know this, but you have to fill the space with other people. Go out and try to make friends. The worst that can happen is you end up where you already are.
