Vent whenever you need! But what steps have you taken since you last posted to help you to not think of her so much? Taking steps towards that is the only way you’re actually going to feel better. I don’t think you really wish you could forget. I think it’s more likely you’re holding on tightly because you just want her back… but it’s not going to happen when you’re in this state of lack or feeling like she’s missing. That pushes love away.
I still think of my ex, too. He actually just crossed my mind a little bit ago… but I don’t indulge the way you do and I think you shouldn’t let yourself indulge like that anymore either. You can miss the times you had together and the things you did, and I think that’s normal, but when it crosses over to constantly thinking about the things she loves and the way she looked and just keeping your focus on that and lamenting over how much you miss her, you’re only making things worse. Actively switch your thoughts to something else when that happens, focus on something that makes you feel GOOD. Trust me on this one.
