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

I had something similar happen to me a while ago. I was nursing wounds from a immature relationship that lasted for 3 years. I was practically dumped. I had a hard time believing that she was gone. Whenever I d meet someone else, I felt like I was cheating on her and always imagined that she would come back one day and look down at me for moving on. I think the reason it feels like cheating is because you still believe that you can get back with him. Reason it out. If it's over for good, take your time to accept that.

I guess you haven’t let go or think there’s still hope or you know it will hurt him. Also it might hurt you to know he’s with someone else.

You may have those feelings for him still. You are stuck in that thought of still being with him. But there is nothing wrong with that at all. Just remember that you guys are longer together so you are not cheating despite those feelings.

I believe that this is because emotionally you are still invested in him and your past relationship, so much so that it feels wrong to be like that with anyone else. At this stage, you are still healing from your experience with him. Just remember, time heals everything and eventually feelings fade, it's still fresh with you right now as it has only been a few months. Focus on yourself and loving yourself before trying to love another person, especially if you haven't had enough time to mourn your past relationship. I understand how you could feel guilty, like how cheating would probably make you feel, but just remember that you are moving forward x

It is normal to think of a past partner for quite some time after a break up. It may take some time to fully get over a past love, so be kind with yourself. We quickly form strong attachments on a physiological level, so there needs to be time to heal your heart. It is a part of the reacclimatizing back to you. Focus on growing yourself and being reflective about what that relationship taught you, don’t just look for another partner to shift away from any longing or heartache you may feel. You will build a self-resilience if you own the feelings and thoughts that surface from time to time. Be kind to yourself and resist judging yourself for your mind wandering back. It’s all a part of being human. Focus on what you learned about you from that relationship so you feel empowered over victimized.Things happen for a reason, accept it and make peace or deny it and ruin your mood over something that you don't have any control. Your happiness matters most other than your relationship status. The faster you move on,the more your Future you will thank you, believe me.

Because you still feel a sense of attachment to him. Even though you are not with him anymore you still feel attached. Maybe the relationship was ended recently so the wounds haven't been properly healed. You can find time to think about it more and see ways in which you can move forward. Either by moving on or reconciling. Its up to you. Or better yet find yourself so that you can know what you really want and that what you do is for your benefit. In the end its normal to feel like this if you were close or in love with the person.

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.

When we are in a relationship especially a long term one, we have a tendency to carry those feelings with us. When we truly care for someone it can be incredibly hard to put our feelings for that person aside. When we find a new relationship those feelings can crop up and cause us alot of confusion. No matter how hard we try not to think about it those feelings are a part of us and we feel like we are cheating on someone we cared about. This can be very confusing and painful and lead us to thinking about the other person.

Letting go of someone can be difficult, especially if you were with them for a long time and felt really in love with them. They become a part of your life, more like a lifestyle, and when that gets taken away it can be tough. You need to remember that you don't owe him anything, and you two are seperate now. You deserve to be happy and therefore you need to do things for yourself to stay happy, or else you'll be stuck with these thoughts forever. You might still feel attached to him; it can be difficult to let go, but you're free to do what you wish now, so just try to enjoy yourself now and forget all about him.

maybe you're too attatched, grasping on to the idea that youre still together when youre not. taking time to address the fact that you're not together is the best you can do. imagining the little things without him, trying to grasp ahold of a future without him. breakups are a hard emotional overload on anyone and everyone, so what youre feeling not abnormal, talking to someone wether its a counsilor, a therapist, friend, family member, or even a colleague. talking about youre emotional distress is not a sign of weekness but a sign of 'im aware im not alright and need to talk to someone' which is a good thing.
