Forget the memories?

Question

So I've been in a relationship for about 7 months now. Previously before we got together I was totally head over heels for a guy that wanted no type of relationship with me. Some thing about him always made me come back, I was crazy about him. Despite his flaws I loved being around him. He's a bit of a slut, pardon my French... And that's why I told myself to just stop seeing him. Being in love with him created a lot of problems in my new relationship and it drove us to breaking up a time or two. But we're still going strong. I don't see my old lover anymore. I can't tell you the last time I even had a conversation with him. I was just curious, is it normal to miss someone who was so terrible for your health? I really miss just being around him and hanging out. He always kept me entertained and laughing. Sometimes I catch myself thinking about waking up next to him and watching whatever was on the tv while he was asleep still (he always slept with the tv on) idk I love my current boyfriend but I miss my old flame. Advice?

Answer

Seriously been with my dude for 5 years, and still go through the same thing. I think about my first, because he was my first love, lost my virginity to him, and then cheated on and left him because I was too young to be tied down I thought. Your feelings are natural, if they start impeding on your current relationship, like you're constantly comparing one to the other, or thinking things like. "Well, HE never used to do or say things like that", then it's only fair to give your new boo some space while you work out your feelings.

Answer

It can happen, but perhaps you hadn't let go sufficiently to move on yet? Now you have someone. If he's a great guy, try and work out how you let the other guy go. He wasn't good to you or for you.
