Violet, thank you for your honesty, however, I feel I need to clear up some misunderstandings, based on your reply.
First, me and the ex are *long* over. Our relationship ended just over a year ago. We are separated both emotionally and physically, now living literally thousands of miles apart. I don't hold out hope for reuniting with her: she moved away, back with her family, and I have moved away from the city and state we in lived together, too. It's not that I am trying to get her back, it's just that I miss her. I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
Second, my current relationship is a good relationship, for both of us. We've been together for about 6 months now, and finally decided to move in together not quite a month ago. We have a great relationship, and I have even gained a new step-child out of the deal... I would not break up with this girl merely because I miss someone terribly.
When we met, she saw my pain, and wanted to try to make it better. Like me, she has (albeit less recently) been through a separation with someone she dearly loved, and I respect that. I personally don't feel that you have to purge every good memory of a previous relationship before moving on. I love, I loved, I am loving. I feel this is a positive quality.
Ok. I was worried that your current girlfriend was unaware of your ex, or that you'd leave her if your ex wanted you back. That's a lot clearer now, though.
Still, I think your position on love songs and rock stars is inaccurate. Not liking them because you're in pain is fine, but rock stars are just as capable of relationship issues as other people.
Is it normal to not believe in love songs?
