You cannot go to the same places you used to hang out with them in the past without feeling either very nostalgic or very uncomfortable 每 whether it*s a street corner or a coffee shop. Either way, you can just see old memories play out behind your eyes when you are there.

When you meet common friends who do not know you still care for your ex, you are faced with a dilemma of wanting to know more about how the person is doing versus trying to appear ice-cool on the outside. But if your friends do know about your feelings, you will drop that cool fa?ade and hound them for every little detail# every time.
8. Nostalgia Nights

You think it*s perfectly okay to sometimes dedicate an entire evening drinking alone and thinking about them while listening to the songs you remember them by. It*s catharsis, you tell yourself, as you line up your playlist with numbers that both of you loved listening to.
9. Their Moving On

The hardest thing you have had to deal with is knowing that they have moved on 每 got engaged or married. Even after this, if you are still stuck on #5, you know you are in big trouble!

Most importantly, you can recall with exact details how you felt when you met them for the first time. It was probably because you were feeling those feelings for the first time# or they were teenage hormones, but if years later you can still revisit those memories in clear detail, you*re still very much in love with your first love, mate!
