Still not over an ex after 2+ years?

82% Normal
11 Comments

I went out with this girl for two and a half years. She was my high-school sweat heat and the one I consider as "the one that got away" Long story short she moved away and things didn't work out. Its been over 2 years since and I still miss her greatly. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of her. Don't get me wrong, its not that I'm obsessed or cant find someone else I just feel as if I really missed out. I don't really talk to her and I can imagine her not really thinking much of me. I imagine to her I'm just a blip in her life's time-line. Anyone have a similar story? I also recently wrote her a letter I plan to e-mail her describing these feelings because I figured if something were to ever happen to me I want her to know how much she meant to me. This normal? Does it sound creepy or something? Appreciate input.

    ok everyone seems to suggest you talk to her and explain your feelings... however if i was you i would be cautious. its been over 3 years since my ex dumped me and im not really over her (hence how i came across this). I tried explaining my feelings to her a long time after and it got me nowhere. in fact i tink it made things worse. so just be careful. dont come across as if you need her.

    Totally normal dude, love is a strong emtion, difficult to get rid of, but dont go writing a letter or email laying all your emotions on the line, thats way too intense! Just start hanging out, see where it goes.

    It's very normal. Clarify what you feel, you must tell her.. Ask for truth.. even if it's not what you want to hear. I've been working on the same damn letter off and on for 4 months now, I'll send it one day when the time is right.It just keeps me close to a memory which had just as much bad as good..crazy

    Well some feelings are best kept to yourself. But do write to her in a civilized & friendly way.

    noo i think it's really normal. you have may felt a impact on your life. but it might to be the same for her. and telling her she may find it sweet and passionate. it might also make her food good knowing that you cared for her in that way.

    This is really normal. you're only human. You can't always control these things..I think that if you ahve tried to be with other girls but you're still always thinking about her (not lustfully tho) then I would suggest you email her, for real. I'm sure it would mean so much to her if you told her how you feel. i think the only thing to worry about is being rejected or her already in love with someone else. Even then, its not the end of the world...if this happened, it means it just wasnt meant to be. But I really think it means something if u cant stop thinking about her..You should tell her. But be warned, long distant relationships dont always work out unless u have a way to always see each other. Tell her before it's too late.I hope my opinion helps.
