Am I running from my past?
I dated someone from high school to college for 4.5 years she dumped me my junior year of college (said we weren’t compatible, she wanted other things). Was a huge blindside. Senior year of college it felt like I was trying to dodge her or hope she wasn’t in the bar I was going into, hoping I never ran into her at the gym, etc. It’s been a few years since I graduated, and I still get that feeling of never wanting to run into her or feel like I’m looking out for her IF I ever go out (I never do).
Ever since, I’ve basically disliked being anywhere remotely close to her. I don’t follow her on anything or friends, but she pops up on her friends stories or posts and I know she’s in the city. It makes me want to move to a new location with fresh people. I want to move for freshness anyways.
Has anyone dealt with this same feeling?
