girl to girl… my ex is my biggest motivation for self improvement. He was super responsible & had his shit together so well, I strive to be like him and he’s the best example I know of a well-rounded adult. I’m in a relationship now. Should I feel guilty?

And you shouldn’t feel guilty bc you can’t help that that motivates you but I do think you should try to quit this habit soon

You need to be your biggest motivation and do everything for YOU. If you build and create a life catered around him you’re never gonna be your true self. Also not a healthy mindset to have if you’re pursuing a new relationship

Like it’s not like I miss him or im trying to fix myself to get him back or anything like that AT ALL. But when im struggling a lot of times I find myself thinking “what would [ex’s name] do” and now that I’m dating someone else I wonder if I need to find a different positive thinking mechanism bc I feel bad holding my ex to such a high pedestal in my head when I have a bf. If that makes any sense
