Yes, I still do love my ex but that does not mean you have to be with them. You guys can just be friends - just remember your broke up for a reason.

I dont feel like its a matter of should or shouldnt, you can love an ex for the rest of your life, however you need to respect that they dont want to be in the relationship anymore, perhaps you need grieve the relationship so that you are able to move on and love others in the future. leave a soft spot for this person, but find a way to live so that your happiness does not depend on someone who couldnt return the same deep feelings

I can't tell you what you should or should not feel because it's your feeling and not mine. However, if you've decided to end the relationship or your partner did then maybe trying to get over them is the best thing for you to do, unless there's a chance for you to get back together with them and that's what you both want :)

Its completely up to you. Sometimes you can help the way you feel about who you love. Ask yourself this is he worth loving and keeping around?

sure. theres nothing wrong with it. you've shared experiences, you've been intimte, yu've been vulnerable, you given and probably recieved trust. all things that humans crave. a lot of people spend their lives trying to feel those things and once experienced its natural to want to keep feeling them.

Maybe you aren't just quite ready for moving on. And that's okay, just don't rush yourself to "fall out of love"

Depending on how things ended, it's normal to feel this way. Someone that used to be a huge part of your life soon became someone that is out of your life. Be sure to ask yourself if you love him or the thought of him. Those are two different questions that you need to ask and evaluate. Just remember that the both of you broke up for a reason.

It is normal to feel this way. Anyone goes through this after a breakup. It'll take time and patience to learn to get over an ex.

Everyone has hard times, and can't get over someone. It takes a while for love to stop, considering on who ended it first.

It'a completely acceptable to still love and care for your ex. Humans feel and in feeling we get attached to others. Attachments are not so easily broken. To be honest, you can still love your ex and even move on with life and love another. Especially if that individual is your first love.

It's natural to still love an ex as love has always and always will work in mysterious ways which we will never understand.

It is perfectly okay to still be in love with your ex. That is perfectly normal after a break up, but eventually you'll move on & find someone better who makes you happy.

It's normal to have lots of ups and downs, and feel many conflicting emotions, including anger, resentment, sadness, relief, fear, and confusion. It's important to identify and acknowledge these feelings. While these emotions will often be painful, trying to suppress or ignore them will only prolong the grieving process.

My first love was my best friend from high school. I still love him after 35 years and have come to accept that I always will. I have had other meaningful relationships those years, but that doesn't change my heart.

Every feeling you have is valid. Feeling love for them is okay. I just hope that you're finding good and healthy ways to cope with those feelings. Stay positive!

It's natural to still feel this way. He or she was a big part of your life and it's normal to still love them in their absence. I guess the question lies whether you still want to go back to them or whether you're prepared to accept that you love them and eventually move on.
