Is it normal to still feel sad over my ex girlfirend?

My former partner Nicola and I split in January 2014, that was bad enough. I tried everything to get her back, showering her with gifts, showing my love and affection, telling her I was sorry and that I was wrong, I even tried leaving her alone and still she rejected me and that hurt, but then she moved away to Poole in Dorset, talking our 11 year old son Adam with her, just when I was going to ask her to get engaged to me, she left in October last year, she didn't even tell me the day she was going, and I didn't get chance to say goodbye to my son, this really broke my heart and I cried a lot. It's now April 2015, no more tears but very close as I still feel quite sad over it and I think about her, I have had dreams of seeing my son. I still lover her and forgive her for everything she has done, and the break up is also partly to do with me.

    Well it's difficult to get over someone or two people you love leaving.Whether its through death or them just plain leaving it can still affect you mentally and possibly physically.I would suggest you go to someone and talk about it.Talking about the problem might make you feel better.And if she allows you to ask for time with your son.Maybe take him for the summer or for a week.Spending quality time with him and showing that you care by your son might persuade her to change her desicion.Im sorry about your issue but I hope I have helped you somehow.

    You might as well move on with your life. I think that this girl has made it abundantly clear she wants nothing more to do with you. This is sad only because it will make it more difficult for you to develop a relationship with your kid.
    Time for you to stop mooning over this lost love and go out and find someone else. You will have a much better chance with seeing your kid if your ex doesn't think you are still hoping for a reconciliation with her. It never hurts to have a younger, prettier gal on your arm when visiting your son.
    Good luck.
