Your ex still misses this about you.
By Christine Schoenwald — Written on Nov 18, 2016
When a relationship is over, it’s a normal response to want to be remembered and thought of by your ex. It’s insulting when no time passes between your breakup and when they’re with someone new.
One likes to think that their ex has some regrets in breaking up with you and that somewhere inside them they wish that you were still in their life. We want to make an impact on other people’s lives, and sometimes it doesn’t even matter if it was a positive or a negative one.
It seems to me that women hang onto their past loves a lot longer than men do. I like to stay friends with some of my exes and the ones that I’m not friends with, I’m up-to-date on their lives from social media.
However, my boyfriend has no idea what’s going on with any of his exes — and what’s worse is that he’s not that interested in finding out. If you were in a relationship with someone who helped shaped you into the person you are today, how could you not care about what was happening in their lives?
My boyfriend doesn’t wish them ill, he’s just entirely indifferent about his exes. I can only hope that my exes remember me and think about me from time to time. I like to think that I made a lifetime impression.
I wonder if the partners of my exes can make them laugh the way that I did or if they cook as well as me? And I wonder if there is one thing above all else that my exes miss about having me in their lives.
We may never know if our exes think of us or if they miss us, but astrology can help. Here's what your ex still misses about you, according to your zodiac sign.
