Girlfriend broke up with me after finding out I was on Tinder – but I can’t get over her
DEAR DEIDRE: I CAN’T help but think about what life could have been like with my ex.
We split up after she read my Tinder messages while I was out on a run.
When she confronted me I confessed I was struggling with the long-distance aspect of our relationship.
I’m 33 and my ex is 31. I’d travel to see her when I was working.
We were together for ten months but after eight months the distance became a real inconvenience.
She was far away, and I wasn’t keen on the city she lives in.

I started messing around on dating apps and got talking to a local woman.
My ex was so upset she ended the relationship and it’s only recently that I’ve really started to miss her.
I have now been in a relationship with the Tinder woman for two years.
I can see a future together but I can also see what could have been with my ex. It’s torture.

DEIDRE SAYS: Be very careful. I would guess that perhaps you are feeling nostalgic because life is not going so well in your current relationship.
Maybe you could do with rediscovering romance with your current girlfriend.
My support pack Relationship MOT will help.
If you can’t make it work, you would be best off ending it – but don’t rush back to this girl from your past either.
Some time alone to work out what you are looking for would be really beneficial.
