When an ex still wants to always talk to you?

Ok so I have this ex that claims she’s moved on and seeing someone else, however she’s always quick to reach out to me for advise and support as well as always wanting to speak with me every night before she goes to bed. I just want to know what is the rationale behind that as she claims she wants to marry the person she’s seeing.

Depends how long you'd been together and how strong the bond was. She might be too used to you in her life like you've become an integral part of it. There may be some unresolved issues with you she's trying to solve as well. Seems like the two of you haven't fully moved on yet

@Nunki yes it’s a little bit complicated where both of us are in a situation where we probably are settling on whom is available rather than whom we love.

@Nunki yes I believe that’s what’s happening. She pushed me into another lady and now she’s in the same shoes where she’s with someone but probably lacking the emotional connection we both had. I don’t know might just be overthinking.

Dude if she hits you up every night then you're definitely not overthinking.
Why do you still talk to her?

@Nunki it was something we did when we were dating so I guess we still use to it where we always tell each other about our day and challenges and just be there for each other .

@Rogo1 You both need to stop, or at least reduce communication gradually. Like, instead of daily make it every other day, then weekly and so on. This should be a mutual decision. If you are both aware of each other’s feelings, be honest with one another. At the same time, acknowledge that you have to move on. Invest more in your new partners. Talk more. Do more things together and double on the fun times 🔞
The struggle between the heart & mind is very difficult I know, but time, distance and new people heal

@Nunki you definitely are right, we’ve said this a couple of times and tried it but I guess we have to make more effort.

Been there. Story of my life, actually 🫤
Good luck @Rogo1

@Nunki thanks, though I was wondering how you got over your ex ?
