If you love(d) somebody, it's totally normal for them to hang around in your head and heart for a while, even after you stop being in a relationship. It's okay and perfectly normal to keep thinking about somebody after your relationship with them ends, but it's not okay if it starts taking over your life.

perhaps because you are not over him, if its either you or him cheated, you may thing what you could have done to make things different.

Depending on how long ago you broke up, you may be thinking about them because you still have feelings for them, or a situation that involved both of you is stuck in your head

It is normal and not shameful at all. There is nothing bad, thinking about someone you shared good, intimate moments with. Even though you are now over it, it still remains a strong memory.

Because maybe you are still not over her/him and she's/he's the first thing that pops into your head in the morning when you wake up.

It's sometimes said that the thing that you wake up thinking about, and falling asleep thinking about, are either the things that cause you the most happiness, or the most pain.

perhaps because you haven’t allowed yourself ample time to heal. you really should give time to think about yourself.

the reason could be because you miss that person or the experience that you had together. or maybe you are worried about them?

Break up is a huge loss. And there is grief associated. Allowing yourself to grieve is important and waking up thinking about the ex is a part of the grieving process.
