I rejected a guy because he really looks like my ex In every way. Is that a sign I have unresolved feelings or would you do the same?

[belle_kai]

His facial expressions and mannerisms are very much like him too but his facial features are scarily similar. Is this normal or weird because he reminds me too much of him I just couldn't.

I just want to make it clear guys, I dont think every guy looks like my ex. Many guys have shown interest and I meet people everyday through my work too and I dont think they all look like him! This particular guy asked me out and he looks so much like him its would just be so weird

There really isn't much you can do but to get counseling for those problems. You don't know the guy, and therefore, him asking you out wouldn't have mattered much because again, it is up to you to date a complete stranger, or to avoid anyone who reminds you of your ex. But do remember that if he is a really nice person, as in being nice in general, he gets hurt because of your ex which isn't fair. So do remember not to hurt the person all because of what your ex did.

[belle_kai]

I rejected him anyway

[Alyssa11]

No I’d do the same with all my exes even though I can say with confidence I’m over all of them (except my most recent one probably).

Well if he doesn't act like you ex, that's probably a good thing. Generally people don't dislike the physical features of an ex. Even if you don't like that person anymore. So you probably find this guy attractive due to his similarity to your ex.

[belle_kai]

He looks like him though

[Twalli]

Which you still find physically attractive.

[belle_kai]

I found it creepy and weird to think about even dating him

[20yearsolder]

Yeah it's pretty normal, why would you want a daily reminder of what was, even though he may be a completely different person is still reminds you of the past

[Screenwriter]

I think it's a healthy choice NOT to pick someone who looks and has similar mannerisms to an ex. It would be creepy if you did. And disturbing.

[jasco]

Well that could have been your ex however you aren't suppose to compared and contrast every guy its not right

[belle_kai]

No this guy actually really looks like my ex. And I haven't rejected every guy but this guy looks so similar its freaky

[Medhat-M]

No i think that's very natural.. You're just repulsed.. I would probably do the same

[YesICan]

"Is that a sign I have unresolved feelings " Yes, probably.

[Shy_Steve]

That's perfectly understandable, You want someone different.

[DizzyDesii]

Nah you just dont need a negative reminder

[chriscdi]

It's understandable I guess

[EaterPeter]

Unresolved feelings yet I would do the same.

[ItsMeItsMe1989]

Yeah
