Hey everyone, welcome back to another episode. Today, we’re diving into a tough but important topic — something that I think a lot of people experience, even if they don’t always talk about it. If you’ve ever wondered what to do when your past relationship still lingers in your mind while you’re building something new with someone else, you’re not alone. This is something that I’ve been struggling with lately, and I know I’m not the only one out there dealing with it.
So, let me set the stage. I’m in a relationship now, and things are going really well. My partner and I are building something special together, but there’s a part of me that still holds on to my past. More specifically, my ex-husband. Even though I’ve moved on, there are times when I catch myself thinking about him — wondering what he’s up to, or even, if I still have any feelings lingering.
Now, I want to be clear, I love my partner. I’m happy with him, and I want to be fully present in this relationship. But those thoughts… they come back sometimes. It’s like this ghost from my past that shows up uninvited. And for a while, I didn’t know how to handle it. I felt guilty. I felt confused. And, honestly, I felt a bit scared to bring it up.
