I’ve been there myself mate. I know exactly how you feel.
It always puzzles me (during my emotionally detached analytical phases, I go through them from time to time) how the human brain works with regards to memory of past relationships.
We are with someone, we split up for a reason. However, after a year or so we forget the reason why that split happened. We focus on the good parts and forget the bad. We start to miss that person, even if they ripped your fucking heart out and then left you to rot.
I always find it helps to really force myself to look at the situation objectively. Why did you separate? Can you remember how you felt before and after the split? Angry before, relieved afterwards is usually a good indicator that it was never meant to be. It’s a curious thing love. It will fuck you up if you let it!
