Ok so i’ve been w my bf for 6 months. His ex and him were together for four years and grew up together as friends as well.

He loves me but I feel like i’ll never be that super special first love he had with her and it makes me really sad. Like I want to feel like this is meaningful and i’m having a hard time dealing with the fact that he’s had a super close true love before. And she’s super nice/they didn’t end on bad terms/barely fought.

They’re super similar and sometimes I feel like they are the ideal couple. I feel like the other girl sometimes or just a filler person in someone else’s love story. They don’t talk and ik he loves me, it’s just my own mind being weird.

Is anyone dating someone who had their first intense love with someone else??? Did they go back to them?? Or did you become special in your own way to them?
