Why does it hurt to see your ex with someone else?

For me personally, it's what helped me move on from him

I clung onto to the hope that he thought about me and missed me. I hoped we'd get back together one day. But one day, I decided to look for him on FB (he didn't have an account when I was with him, so don't know why I checked) I was devastated when I saw posts of him and another woman together. He posted messages saying how much he loved her, and that she was and would be the only woman for him. He clearly loved her and it was obvious he didn't miss me.

It tore me up inside at first, but I realised that I was holding into false hope. Now when I think about him I don't feel anything for him. My feelings have faded and he never really crosses my mind

Dude trust me same happened to me last week , and I believe it was for good. Hopes are shattered and more love for myself.

It's very painfu. I honestly thought I'd always love him. Maybe I would have if I'd still clung to false hope. When I saw how much he loved her, it crushed me inside at first because I wanted him to feel that way about me. But he clearly never did. I'm over him now. So happy I checked him out on FB

You can't grow if you live in the past. All the best.
