Hi everyone! It is been a little while since I blogged, sorry about the delay, with the holidays and work things have been crazy! But, now that I am back blogging away, I have quite the interesting topic for today! Or, at least I think it's interesting :)
I have been in a new relationship with Eli now for two months. It has been great and he is honestly the sweetest, most caring guy I have ever met. But, even though he makes me so happy, I still get enraged when I see photos of Max and his girlfriend, our common friends, or other people in general. I hate seeing him out and about, having a good time, and hanging out with other people.
This same situation happened when I was dating Max too. I hated seeing photos of Sam even though I was incredibly happy with Max at the time. This makes me wonder, is this normal? Is it okay to still absolutely hate seeing your ex even though you are happy with someone else?
Seeing photos of Max doesn't make me sad. It doesn't make me wish we were still together. It just makes me angry. It's a very weird thing to explain. I don't know why it makes me feel this way. But it is something I wish I didn't feel. I wish that I could just shut off that anger and move on with my life. But unfortunately I can't. I feel that this part of moving on takes time just like the other parts of a breakup. Our exes are never going to go away or just disappear. We have to learn how to accept their presence even though we aren't with them.
I do believe it is okay to have these feelings of anger from a past relationship, even though you are with someone else. These type of feelings take time to go away, just like the sadness, heartbreak, and betrayal. What do you all think?
Until next time!!
