Only few persons spend all their lives with one person; most will definitely date at least 2 persons and therefore have an ex. It’s difficult letting go sometimes but if we want our next relationship to be successful, then we need to let go of our past.
Sometimes our present relationships suffer because of our past relationships and it isn’t right. If you notice any of the signs listed below in your relationship, then you need to do sometime quick to save your present relationship.
Below are 5 signs we can’t let go of our past relationship
1. YOU COMPARE YOUR PRESENT PARTNER TO YOUR EX:
Many make this mistake when in a new relationship and it’s so wrong. You should understand your present partner can never have the same personality as your ex. When you compare your present partner with your ex, it means you still wish you had your ex and you just want another clone of your ex. If you do this, you are hurting your present relationship.
2. YOU THINK OF YOUR EX WHEN YOU GET DOWN WITH YOUR PARTNER:
There is nothing as demoralising as your partner calling the name of their ex when you are having sex with them, it kills the mood and it also shows they still haven’t gotten over their ex. If you think of your ex during sex with your current partner, you need to know you are hurting your present relationship.
3. YOU DON’T GIVE YOUR CURRENT RELATIONSHIP YOUR ALL:
When we still wish we are with an ex, it becomes difficult to give our current relationship our all and we know when you put it no effort to make your current relationship work, it won’t work.
4. YOUR EX STILL OCCUPIES YOUR THOUGHTS:
If every single minute, the thoughts of your ex occupies your mind, you are asking for trouble as your new relationship would definitely not work. Your ex shouldn’t occupy your thoughts but your current partner.
5. YOU WON’T MOVE ON:
It’s years since your last relationship ended and you won’t just give anyone else a chance; you are not just ready to move on. That’s a sign you haven’t let go of your past. It’s important you understand that the past is now in the past and you deserve to find happiness by giving love another chance.
If your past relationship didn’t work, you should learn from it and move on. You should understand you are not being fair with your current partner when your previous relationship still hold you back.
Is your past relationship holding you back?
