Why do I still yearn for a past love?

A year and a half ago, I split from a love cause we were both too far apart from one another. We also had our own "challenges" to overcome.

I am getting my life back together, got myself in a good relationship, but lately, thoughts and feelings of this past love has emerged, stronger than ever.

It hurts. Not sure what it is cause I never felt this way before. She was/is something special, however, there are reasons why I should not go back to her as well as reasons why we belong.

Much confuse.

Idk, I have a motto...all is not lost as long as we have breath... But sometimes it's better to not try if it will only stir up things that just can't be.

The nostalgia will come and go and at least won't be constant. 😎

Oh I totally get that! It's like when the imagination interferes with your intuition and those spidey senses. Sometimes the best thing is simply to not try (so hard), don't force it. Do what feels natural and best for you and your well being. It'll all work out. 😌

You...I like you.

But thanks again for reading it through and being all introspective. Once I took a nap and woke up, felt better.

Got any tips to train that intuition? Play card games and guess what the other player has?

😊 Thanks. Hope it helped in some small way. Sleep can be a sweet thing, it resets us somehow.

Hmm, on the intuition I would say actually try not to think, and just feel, sense it...
