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

It is because you were so close with him, and you felt like he was the only one there. It takes time to get over someone, but I believe you can do it.

Is he possibly still a major part of your heart? Sometimes you feel like the connection is there even if its officially over. Like the Rachel Ross on a break from friends :)

Maybe because you're guilty of breaking up and you feel it's your fault and maybe coz, you didn't want it that way.

This is a very common reaction to a break up. After breaking up with someone you can still feel like you are with them because it might be what you want to do even if they don't want to or you know that it would be wrong. When you find someone else but you are still dealing with a breakup this can lead to what you are feeling.

You have that feeling because he was recently part of your life, someone that was the one for you and even after a month you have the same feeling because it can be unusual change for you. You have a feeling of replacing him with someone else and the thought that he was recently the one next to you. Give yourself a little time and that feeling will go away eventually. :) It's similar to getting used to the light after the dark.

You feel that because you do not consider the relationship finished. You will have to look back and see what does not let you break the relationship. Maybe there are things to say, maybe some mistakes have been made and they have not been repaired and you can not go over them. Perhaps the chances are that the relationship can be resumed.

you still not move on from him yet? don't worry, it will be over by the time. there is a day when you will forget everything about the past relationship and getting ready to open up a new door for someone new where you won;t feel like cheating, just wait

Maybe if it was a long term relationship, or if you are still talking day to day. That that would be a reason why

If you've been in a relationship before, especially if it was a long and or meaningful one, it's natural to feel odd about dating and connecting again. If you truly feel like the guilt is hindering and preventing new opportunities for your new relationship, then it might not be the right time to date again. However, if you feel you are ready to love again, move forward optimistically, and remember that this relationship has nothing to do with your old one -this isn't about the past, it's about the future.

Because you care for him, it doesn't matter that you're not involved in a romantic relationship anymore, he mattered to you and probably still does.
