Why do I feel like I'm cheating on him still, even though we broke up months ago?

Sometimes, when we share our lives with someone for so long, its hard to make any decision or take any action that truly feels independent of our significant other, even if its after breaking up. This is perfectly natural and perhaps its a sign that you are not yet ready to share with someone new

because you still have feelings for him and you are not over him yet..... give yourself some time before jumping into a new relation

This is normal. I have gone through this after breakups in the past. You may still feel emotionally involved with him for a while after breaking up, especially if your relationship was a long one. Take comfort in knowing that these feelings will fade and eventually disappear. I know this from experience. Good luck and hang in there!

Healing takes time, which can be frustrating. While you may have broken up weeks, months or years ago they can still hold a place in your heart. An emotional connection with someone can be hard to get over and your heart may still be attached even though your brain is not. Allow yourself the time to heal and you may find the feeling of cheating goes away on its own as you reconnect with yourself. In the meantime remember that you are going through a hard time and to take care of yourself both physically and mentally. You can do this!

Ahhh! That dreaded question. I'm sure a lot of us have felt like that although we are not actually cheating. "Cheating" what do we know about it? We know it's bad, wrong and shouldn't be done. But do we really know what constitutes as cheating? To me, and many others, cheating is the normal hooking up, sleeping with or doing "something" with another person that is not your partner. But is there more to that definition. I think so, for some cheating can be as simple as messaging another person. But when does that become too much? Well for me, no one wants someone that is controlling to the point they can't do anything. And I can definitely say, if you are in relationship with anyone who is constantly trying to control you then GET OUT! But back to the original question. If you are feeling as though your still cheating on him even though your no longer together, it usually means that your connection or bond was stronger than you originally thought. Although that does not mean he feels the same way. If you want to talk some more. Just look me up on 7 Cups. I will get back to you as soon as possible. Hope this helps! @sunnyForest6481

Because the love is still there and it is very difficult to let go. Just because you both broke up doesn't mean the love disappeared. Learn to forgive yourself for the break up. It happened for a reason. Let your heart be at peace and remind yourself that you no longer have to feel guilty because you all are not together.

You most likely are still in love with him. I know it's a difficult feeling because you want to move on

I'm sorry that you are feeling this way and that you had to go through the emotional stress of a breakup. I know it can be very difficult and hard to get over. If you were together for a long time, it can feel weird, and even wrong not being with him. You were so accustomed to being with him, that not being with him seems weird, and may feel like you're cheating on him even though you aren't together anymore. It could also be that you aren't over him yet, which is a big possibility. Like I said earlier, you grew accustomed to being with him, so not being with him anymore can see weird.

Love runs deeper than any other human emotion. It creates rivers in the soul, that last forever. A part of you will always love him. A part of you will always cherish the connection you had. And that part may always feel loyal to him, and it may be why you're struggling to move on with someone else. But this won't last. That part of you will fade over time, as your heart realises what you truly want. It's not easy, by any stretch. But it is part of the recovery process. Accept that you still have that feeling, somewhere inside your heart. Be proud of it, for it shows you're a loving human being. But learn to not let it control you.

Hello .. my name is yara and im glad to help you through this .. Because you loved him with all your heart .. but youre not doing anything wrong as long as youre not with him anymore .. live your life .. enjoy every second with anyonr who makes you happy and forget everything who makes you sad .. and im here if you want to talk about anything

It is easy to feel that way when you love someone. A breakup up is one of those things that you have to take one day at a time.

Sometimes the guilt of something you've done lasts longer when you care about someone so deeply. I know from personal experience, that while I have had relationships and friendships fail, I still feel like I am betraying them when I am without them. Sometimes it just takes more time to get past an event or person, but it is totally possible!

Even if you broke up, it's entirely possible you still have feelings for him. What you're feeling now is guilt and that's perfectly normal. Don't be afraid to just give it time. If you still feel guilty, try speaking to your ex.

This is more common than you'd think. Sometimes we get so used to relationships that even when they end it doesn't fully register in our brains that its over. It is hard to go back to single life without feeling a little bit of guilt. I think the first thing to do would be to acknowledge that you shouldn't be feeling guilty. The second would be to realise that if you are still thinking about your ex while with other boys then you are probably not over him and its best to take some more time off before jumping back into the game.

I feel the same way, it is natural. After break ups, it is not certain to lose all the feelings for him. You may still feel connected to him but helpless as well. And when you try to break through this " helpless" situation, You sense that you are cheating on him. But it is the right thing to do in order to move on.

I feel this way too. I guess we feel this way because in our heart the relationship is not over.. we still have hope that he will come back and we will be able to solve everything. Accepting a break up isn’t easy. Even if we are the one who decided to break, getting over someone it is hard. A friend recently told me there is even an hormonal explanations. After having been in an exclusive relationship for a while, your body gets used to certain smells, and approaching to someone new, with different hormones and smell, it is something we automatically reject

This might be because you still love him and are still in a way emotionally commited to him. As time passes, this problem will probably dissapear on it's own.

You still feel an attachment and connection to him, which effects your ability to move on, so you feel like you are cheating on him.

Could be your still feel emotionally connected to him, therefore, investing in someone else might mimic a "cheating" feeling. These kinds of things don't happen over night. The heart needs to heal and that takes time. It is natural for the body to feel some guilt when it does something out of routine. You'll get there, keep your head up.

You are not over him yet therefore your heart has not let go. You probably think he might return to you. Get him out of your system.

It often takes a while to fully move on from a serious relationship, and despite you may feeling better from the break up it may feel strange for you to move on. Often people just need to take a first step into moving on to realise that they are ultimately ready to do so. However, it is also common that others may have feelings left for their previous partner (despite being able to admit it or not). It is thoroughly important to not rush into thing sin this situation. I advise to sit down and spend some relaxing time on your own to reflect on your feelings and emotions. Only once you are certain should you take action, for the benefit of not just the mental health of the people around you but your own mental health also.

When I am trying to get on with my life and I talked to somebody else it's bothersome simply because of the transition you have shared something so wonderful and beautiful with someone before and you strongly believe well as for me I believe that there is still something there. In my own head I am waiting for that quick phone call or that text message or even an email from that person that I love that for whatever reason caused The Break-Up to come back to me that she has forgiven me so when I do open up to someone else as I try to get on with my life it's easy to quickly feel that I am cheating on the woman that I love so much so I just have to learn to readjust to a new transition from one person to another

Maybe the guilt stayed with you even after you broke up. You may be feeling guilty that you breaking up was the cause of you having that relationship. Guilt is ok. It shows you know what you did was wrong and you feel the slightest bit of remorse. As time goes by you may learn to shed that guilt. You will eventually not feel guilty and you will learn to understand how to move on. To forgive and forget. It is never easy, but time will tell and show you soon. Good luck with your soon future relationships!

It can be very challenging moving on from a relationship that meant a lot to you. Even after several months you can still feel as though you haven’t moved on from the relationship. The best thing to do is to put yourself and your mental health first, deliberately engaging in positive behaviours, and only move on to dating other people when ready. I can understand that it is frustrating feeling as though you should have moved on from something which is still affecting you, but remember that you will be okay, and that although everyone heals at their own pace, you will heal.

If you feel like you have been cheating your partner even after you have broken up with him/her about months ago. That would be because you are still not moved on. Basically you are still in love with your partner. Your heart and mind still feels like you should be loyal to the one you love. It can be very frustrating at times. However, its good to realize that life is not all about being the same person forever. Sometimes we have to realize that somethings are better off without us and we need to leave it as it is if that is causing us any harm or mental torture.

Maybe your heart still beats for him. it is better to move on. Do not overthink about it. clear your mind from all thought of him. Do what you like, involve yourself in activities that keeps you busy, do not avoid places where you visited with him. keep a good friend close to you, spend more time with your friends. go out places and enjoy weather,evening and your favorite food. Cut him completely from your life. Do not make a full stop on your life just because someone betrayed you. Don't stop and keep doing good work in your life.

You most likely still feel committed to him. You most likely cared about him and have still yet to let him go. It is sometimes hard to let go of relationships especially when you enjoyed them. Guilt is hard to let go of, it makes you feel like you are in the wrong, even after the event has happened. If the person has forgiven you, then you need to forgive yourself. It is hard but you should realize that it isn't impossible for you to forgive youself, even in these situations. Anxiety over this kind of thing is common.

There are several reason a person may feel as though they are cheating on someone that aren't intimate with any longer. It can be difficult to move on from someone we have loved and cherished and planned to have a future with. Perhaps you are a loyal person who doesn't give up on the people around you that you care about. The attachment to your ex- boyfriend was/is stronger than you expected. It might be that you aren't quite ready to move on from the relationship having left something unresolved; or your heart is telling you that to focus on yourself- taking a break from a relationship. And it may be a combination of all of these things depending on the day. Everyone processes a break up in there own time be patient with yourself.!

Its happen when we are attached with someone strongly,so its natural.Due to strong affections sometime its feels like that but its doesn't mean u are cheating with him.Love is the strongest feeling that we have. Whenever we leave our beloved someone due to some reason or without any we need some time,someone we treats us in a better way.its help like healing a wound. They works like ointment. When we don't have such people in our lives we automatically miss that's part of our daily life routines that we have leaved.so that is the basic reason why we miss or feel like we are cheating.

That's probably because you still love him honey and you just can't accept the fact that it's over between you two so it's only logical that you see him in other guys and his on your mind everywhere you go so please baby girl it's not to late maybe he feels the same way and you can still find out whether he still likes you. You are in love and you deserve all the happiness in the world so I say go for it love you only live once and you need to get your answers and when you do you have to leave happy.
