he was my first real love, and broke up with be abruptly when i was 12. now i'm 16, and i thought for sure i was over it, but now i'm not so certain. i started going out with his best friend a while back, and they were both fine with my ex's and my own history together, so there wasn't a problem there. i don't see him very often, but when i know he's coming to my boyfriend's house or i know i'm going to see him, i get anxious. my stomach starts hurting with anxiety and i get really paranoid about the way i look or act. does this mean i still like him, or am i just weird.
I think you should think about it like this. (My friend gave me this exact advice.)
"He was your first love. Of course you are going to miss him a little and think that the relationship was amazing. But you guys have both changed since age 12. You two might not even have the same things in common. Your first love will always be your first love, but you gotta move on from that."
