Is It Normal to Miss Someone You Broke Up With?

That's right, it's completely natural. Despite having an amazingly great wife and a young child, I still miss an ex from many, many years ago. We hadn't seen one other in a long time, and I had partly mythologized her. She was so beautiful and brilliant that I convinced myself we would get back together once she saw how awesome married life with Harry is. But she didn't, and now she's with someone else. It hurts, but there's no use crying over spilled milk...

The important thing is that you don't quit living your life because of lost loves. While they may cause you pain, they also helped shape who you are today. So instead of focusing on the negative aspects of missing someone, try to remember all the good times you had together.

Now, if you really want to hurt something or somebody, then break up with them out of the blue. That will definitely cause damage and be hard to recover from.

Otherwise, waiting until later to break up will help you heal faster and give yourself time to move on.

So yes, it's normal to miss someone you broke up with. Now, if you want to cry over them, then by all means do so!

Is it normal to miss an ex-boyfriend?

It's been two years, so a simple hello shouldn't reopen any old scars too much if you want to know whether you miss him and aren't simply having a boyfriend. We had a very strong early relationship that slowly deteriorated into one of mutual neglect as we moved away from Chicago for college and jobs. When we would talk on the phone or meet up for drinks after not seeing each other for months, we would always have a great time but by the time we hung up or left the bar, we would suddenly remember things that we had argued about earlier in the day and feel bad about ourselves for thinking these thoughts about each other.

I've read some people say they don't miss those people at all because they're with someone new now, but that's not true for me. I do miss my ex, even though we are no longer friends. We just had a baby together and he's an amazing father, which is why I can't imagine what our relationship must have been like when we were younger.

If you still miss someone after being with someone new for some time, then yes - it's normal. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to move on.

Is it normal to miss your ex so much?

As I explain in my audio lectures on getting back with an ex, it's totally natural for your feelings to overwhelm you and for you to miss your ex a lot! Missing someone you love is not normal unless they're hurtful or harmful to yourself. If this is the case, please seek help before doing anything else.

It's important to remember that when you miss your ex, it doesn't mean that you don't care anymore; it means that you still care but you're also aware of how painful it would be if something happened to them. You may want to see them again one day but for now, you have to move on because they need you too!

Is it normal for your partner to miss their ex?

It means nothing other than that you miss something or someone who was important to you and had a significant effect on your life. It's natural and acceptable to miss your ex, and it says nothing wrong about you.

If your partner is still hurting from losing your love, they may not want to let you know how much they care by showing up at your place of work or going out with others. This is normal, too. Just because your lover has moved on doesn't mean they're unavailable to you or that you can't see them again. Give them time, and they will return your call or come over when they feel like it can't be avoided.

If you notice that they're rarely or never around when you have friends over, this may indicate that they're hiding themselves from you or have become distanced due to the pain of losing you. Try to understand where they're coming from as they deal with their grief and love again.

Finally, if they don't contact you within a few months of breaking up with you, there's no need to worry about them getting back together with another person. They've moved on with their lives and found new happiness.

Do you get mad when you miss someone?

Depending on the connection and the length of time you've been separated, the desire that comes from missing someone can range from moderate melancholy to sheer anguish. Missing your SO is a very natural emotion to being away from them. Even though they are not physically with you, you know they are still thinking about you and feeling sad too.

If you're wondering how you should act upon seeing your love again, don't worry about what others think or say. Just go ahead and do what you have to feel better about yourself.

People who have been separated for a long time sometimes feel like they need to let their partners know exactly how much they hurt them by leaving. However, this isn't necessary if you can call or write letters instead. The important thing is that you take the first step toward fixing things with your partner so they will want to see you again.

The most effective way to deal with the pain of missing someone is by doing something active that makes you happy. Go out with friends, visit museums, attend shows - anything that will get your mind off of your lover and back into enjoying life again will help.

So yes, it's normal to get angry when you miss someone. But only do so if it helps you come to terms with the fact that you two aren't together anymore.
