It sucks, but it's normal. With the one that got away, you'll always wonder. Hell, I'm married, and sometimes I still think about the guy that I couldn't have, but I have learned to live with it and try not to let it affect my relationship. I try to focus on enjoying the life I have today. It helps to avoid reminders of the other person (songs, places you used to go together, etc. Anything that dredges up those memories can put you into a blue funk for days). Also, if you feel the need to talk to someone, tell a friend or come here to IIN. Whatever you do, do not tell your girlfriend. It would only hurt her. Some things are best kept to ourselves.
Is it normal I can't stop thinking about this girl even after 5 yrs?
