How would you react if you accidentally called your current partner by your ex’s name?

Question

I am guilty of this. I have absolutely no connect with my ex, nor will I ever. I love my current boyfriend and would never do anything to hurt him. I don’t know what happened. I was talking to him about something less serious and accidentally called him by my ex’s name. Right away, I apologized and expressed that I have zero contact with my ex. I slipped. I brain farted. His behavior and demeanor totally changed after. Unsurprisingly, he distanced himself and things got really awkward and silent. by the way, my boyfriend and I have been dating for about 4 month. My ex and I dated for about 2 months. I know I fucked up. How do I move forward? He is still acting a bit distant but the guilt is eating me alive. We have kinda shoved that incident passed us. Have you ever had this happen to you?

This happens to everyone. We make a connection between the idea of "partner" and a name. The longer we are with someone, the stronger and quicker the connection. It takes a while to overwrite that with a connection to a new name. Your boyfriend should understand this.

I did that to my last ex, but funny enough I didn't do it to her face. I would sleep up only when I was talking to people who knew my previous ex.

Ha! I call BS, you still want to fuck your ex... who is probably an Alpha who dumped you, while now you are with a Beta who doesn't give you the tingles.
