M26 still in love with his ex but says he loves me too F27

r/

I’m really interested in hearing from the male population for this one

How many of you fucked it up with who you thought was the love of your life in your 20’s only to move on with someone else soon after? How did this relationship turn out? Was the next girl ever someone you legitimately fell in love with? How many of you were still in love with your ex throughout this relationship?

Navigating a similar situation with my partner of 2 years. I really don’t know if he’ll ever love me as much as he loved her and it’s terrifying

TL;DR My partner’s still in love with his ex

    Well. He should keep ALL of that shit to himself.

    It’s borderline psychotic to talk about being hung up and wistful about an ex.

    My partner did..took a while for him to open up to love with me but it def happened! I’d be pretty concerned by this declaration though, especially after 2 years 😬

    Girl, have some self respect and find yourself a guy who doesn’t pine after his ex.
    This is humiliating and unhealthy.

    Who is ever ‘with’ someone they don’t have love for?

    Sure, there FWB and ONS, but I sense you mean ‘with’ in the exclusive, committed sense.
