Did I make a mistake?

[Capricornunicorn92]

I had sex with my ex which was great but it left me feeling empty inside. Like I don't know how to feel about it or him anymore. I wanted something with him but now I'm not so sure.

He broke up with me and all this time I have been wanting to get back together but now I don't know if I want that anymore. I still love him terribly but something feels off. Like as if a wool has been lifted from my eyes and I now see the truth.

Should I have not slept with him? Why do I feel like this? I love him so why I am no longer sure?

I think it wasn't a mistake. It's helped you feel a bit of freedom from the obsession you porbably had after the breakup.

If you feel like you're not wanting to be with him anymore after this at least you know what you truly want and can move on from it. Has he treid to talk about getting back together at all?

[Capricornunicorn92]

Yes he says maybe when he feels ready but by then I don't know if I will want to anymore. I'm a bit confused now but I don't feel as obsessed as you said. I'm just feeling rather meh about him at the moment which I guess is a good thing. It means I can start to move on I guess.

Yeah ok, I'd take a step back now then. Try to use the sense of detachment as a way of getting out and doing other things without thinking about the future that may or may not happen with him.
Especially if he's not sure too.
Time to sart making yourself the priority! It doesn't mean you're making mistakes, it's the natural process of moving on and you're finding yourself again.

Thanks for this. I will certainly do just that. I definitely need to break away now and make myself the priority like you said!

always go with your gut instinct. and yes, you should never sleep with an ex. see how it leaves you feeling?

[Capricornunicorn92]

Yes. My gut was telling me before he even came to not let him come. I should have went with my gut. You're right. Well I learned my lesson and there will be no more of that.
