Re: anyone else get lost in memories? Mart: Hi,
I guess memories with our ex will always be a part of us. We can't change that and forget all together. In 10 years, I will still remember that I went on a safari in Africa; it just happens that memory is with my ex. I believe we need to create new memories.

Re: anyone else get lost in memories? gypsy: Yes...everyday...especially when new things come up that I last experienced with the ex...for example, I had to take my dog to the vet and while I was there I started crying because he and I always used to take the dogs to the vet together. The little things are what get me...his birthday a couple of weeks ago, our wedding anniversary coming up on the 10th, my birthday coming up next month, my move, etc. etc.
No matter how much I try to remember the bad stuff, for some reason it's always the good stuff that comes up. I hate that...wish I could just think of the bad times, it would make it all so much easier...
Re: anyone else get lost in memories? riversandlakes: how about watching "The Island", when ewan mcgregor kissed the girl, as if they have never kissed before. that reminded me on how we were like that.
we kissed for hours on end, and got ourselves puffed lips

That's where I've been living in the past few days - in my merories. I just can't snap out of it, I keep reliving all good and bad time we had over past 6 years.
It's really taking a toll on me, but seems like there's nothing to be done. Memories are the only thing I have left.
Re: anyone else get lost in memories? Kermie: The thing I did and I don't know if this will help or not but take in all the memories don't push them away. Let them flood you with emotions then let them go. Its kinda like screaming at the end of a bad day. Pull in the emotions then let them come roaring out. Remember that through those memories you were both happy, but YOU were happy as well, remember what it is like to be happy, it does not always have to be with a certain person you can be happy all by yourself. You have good memories of your childhood but you don't feel sad when you think of them even though your childhood has passed. You will make new memories happy ones, take the lessons that you have learned over the years of what has made you happy and apply them to your future not dwell on wanting the old ones back. I will sometimes counter a good memory with a bad one. Pavlov's theroy it has really helped me get through some of the tougher days that I hope are getting farther and farther behind me.
