7 reasons you miss your ex, but they have nothing to do with him

Do you miss him? You really miss him as a person or just the feeling of having someone by your side. You miss the feeling of security!

When a relationship ends, you are left with a void. The person who was by your side day and night has disappeared. You are alone. Lonely. You're missing out feelings, thoughts, conversations, closeness, touches.

1. You miss the feeling of being by your side

You return home and there is no one waiting for you. You may feel lonely. You miss hugs, kisses. Conversations about everyday things. Your laugh. Someone who will comfort you on difficult days and help you out of trouble.

2. You miss the feeling of attraction

You don't trust anyone anymore. You don't believe their words. Without a partner, you feel as if you are no longer attractive, even though somewhere inside you know very well that this is not the case. You are still beautiful and worthy of love, even if there is no one by your side at the moment.

3. You miss the feeling of being on the right track

It seems like everyone who has five minutes to spare is asking you why you're alone. Why are you not married and have no children? You feel like you are being judged. You feel like you're falling behind, that you're one step behind others. Not at all. Be proud of yourself, your path is yours and it is not written anywhere that it has to be the same as others. It's better to be happy than to look happy.

4. You miss a partner who will help you through life

It feels like your world has come crashing down because all the expenses you previously shared have fallen on your shoulders. It seems to you that you need them for certain activities and then you remember that they are not with you. Now you have to be more responsible and independent. You miss someone to share the burdens with, not just the financial ones.

5. You miss having someone by your side who knows everything about you

It's hard to get into new relationships because you're starting from scratch. The other person does not know your history. He doesn't know the struggles you've had in the past. You may miss them because they know you better than anyone else. You could have been there for them. You no longer had to hide behind the mask of perfection.

6. You miss intimacy

You may miss this person more physically than emotionally. Maybe you miss their hands on your body. You miss touches, physical closeness.

7. You miss being in a relationship

Maybe you miss the idea of you two. If you go back to them, it does not mean that the existing problems will miraculously disappear. Accept that your time is up.

But you don't miss them as much as you think. You simply miss your partner, not them, the person who would be with you through thick and thin.
