Hello Ladies of RPW,

I am kinda is a situation...I honestly can’t stop thinking about my ex..

A little about me I am 22, college student, lab tech and interested in older men.

My ex is now 35 and had completely moved on with an 18 year old. They started dating before him and I broke up, he took me to dinner and told me he missed me and all this crap and come to found out he had a girlfriend. We had a very complicated relationship. Things were good and bad. He was honestly the love of my life and I had everything planned out with him and a part of me misses him. I know he isn’t any good for me but I can’t help it.

I now am dating a 34 year old doctor, we met at work and he’s a dream. We have been dating for about seven months and a part of me feels guilty because I feel like I’m not giving him everything. He also lives in a development down the street from where my ex’s house is, no I didn’t so that purpose I didn’t know where he lived until after we started to get serious, but maybe that’s part of the issue? I don’t know. I have been honest with my boyfriend about where my ex lives and my past relationship and he has been honest with me. I believe this one could be the one but I feel bad. What do I do?

  1. Do I grow up and tell myself to shut up?
  2. Do I be honest with my boyfriend?
  3. Am I crazy?

I don’t want to hurt my boyfriend or myself....
