I've been with my girlfriend for a couple weeks now and were happy so far. This isn't our first time dating, we've been off and on for about 3 or 4 years now. And all the other times we've dated, things haven't really worked out between us. Since we've gotten back together, i don't know what i'd do with out her and i know i really do love and care about her. But at the same time, my exgirlfriend keeps popping up in my mind. We had a bad relationship and now have a no contact order between us. I care about her and I know I don't ever want to be with her again, but for some reason....every little thing seems to remind me of her lately. Sometimes bad thoughts, sometimes good and other times, its just memories. But I want to just forget about her. I love my current girlfriend and that's who I really want, but for some reason, I haven't completly erased the idea of my ex yet. So if anyone could please tell me why this is, or how to just get rid of her...i'd appreciate it

Because you had a relationship with her, that includes good times, bad times, fights, fun, tear, laughs. Those things aren't easy to just forget. I've been broken up with my ex for three years now, and my 1 year anniversary with my current boyfriend is tomorrow. I'm incredibly happy with my relationship but I still think of ex. It's natural. Just don't act on it. It seems to be your pattern. Break up-get back together-break up-get back together. I hope things work out for you this time, however if they don't, don't go back to the ex.

Try to direct all your thoughts about your ex, towards your current girlfriend. Everytime a thought comes up about your ex, turn it around toward the gf you have now.
