Break Up & Divorce

I need help getting passed him?

So,

I've been dating this guy for a bit. A few months. He's great.

But, about 2 weeks ago, an ex of mine reached out. THE ex. The one I was SO into. The one that it's been 2 years since we split and a year of zero contact (prior to a couple weeks ago) that I still think about almost every day.

Its ridiculous.

He's not good news. I know I have no business going back. And I'd never cheat on my current partner (or anyone for that matter).

But I have dreamed and thought about him SO often despite the no contact.

And since he's contacted me, I've been so emotional.

I didn't respond. He asked if he could take me on a date. I blocked him.

But I've cried every day since. It's so sick to know he would have made the effort in the last 3 years if he really wanted me. But simultaneously there's nothing I want more than to see him.

But I need to get past him. He's gotta stay in the past.

I've never had this much trouble getting over someone. And I've had my share of traumatic relationships. I really couldn't say what it is about him.

I just can't stop thinking about him and I know it's wrong
