Letting Go

Sigh. Some people are so very hard to let go of. No matter how many days, weeks, months, or years pass by after the relationship ends, they still creep into your consciousness and cause serious glitches in your mental and emotional well-being from time to time. I can't be the only one out there who's haunted by a past love. I don't necessarily mean "the one that got away", in my case I know full well I wasn't meant to be with this person. We tried many many times and it just didn't work. Instead of lifting each other up, we tore each other down and became the worst possible version of ourselves. It was a relationship that had to end permanently, once and for all, there's no question about it. And after 11 or so years of playing the "off again, on again" game it finally did. But I still miss him terribly sometimes and I immediately compare every new guy I meet to him. The worst part is that he didn't have any trouble moving on. He even has a child now. Of course my first thought was "I was supposed to have your child!" but my second thought was that I was happy for him. And I truly am happy for him. He always wanted kids, far more than I ever did, and he finally got his wish. Congratulations. Now if you just have any advice on how I can move on too it would be much appreciated.

Yours Truly,
Hopelessly Stuck
