I know through social media my ex has a new girlfriend he seems happy with.
I’ve never regretted anything in my life before and always felt I’ve ended up in a better position.
But not this time. I’m a woman of 22. I don’t know how to deal with these feelings.
Meeting “The One” has always been my dream but I worry I never will.
Maybe I had it with my ex and threw it away. I feel so down every day.
DEIDRE SAYS: Maybe you just moved on too quickly.
Few relationships end without mixed feelings but the fact your ex has also quickly got with someone new has probably made you question your judgment.
You broke with your ex for what felt like good reasons at the time.
Maybe you now are looking at him through rose-tinted spectacles but those old issues would rear up if you got back together.
Best learn from what happened and move on.
My e-leaflet Mend Your Broken Heart will help.
