Need advice!!
Ok I need any and all advice š please help. Iāve been with my boyfriend for over 2 years and feel deeply connected and happy and in love with him. My ex and I were first loves and on and off basically for 5 or so years until I met my current bf. During that time we both were toxic and back and forth and he did some things that were really hurtful. We never really had an āendingā or any actual closure to anything? I just kind of started talking to and liking my current boyfriend. I saw my ex a month ish ago at the bar and wasnāt very nice to him. I was like hyper aware of how I was behaving around him to make sure he didnāt get the wrong idea. I know he has had a really hard time moving on from me. Since then I feel like I have not been able to stop thinking about the past and am questioning a ton about my feelings. I do have ROCD, and I donāt know if this is solely because of that or a mix of that and the emotional loose ends? I donāt know. But Iām feeling such an urge to text him this whole paragraph Iāve drafted about closure, how I donāt even need him to respond, but I just need to get some things off my chest. I feel SO conflicted about sending it. I do not want to rekindle anything with him, but itās just the principle of texting your ex that makes me feel like I am betraying my boyfriend now. Yet it feels like itās weighing on me so much - and Iām like is ocd involved? I just donāt know if I should send the text or not. If anyone has been in similar situations or has any helpful advice I would really love and appreciate some because I feel so stuck.
