So a bit of backstory, my boyfriend of 1 year (27) was with his ex for 4 years, they lived together and everything (I think they were possibly also engaged though he has never directly told me this).
They broke up 2 years ago, because she basically left him. I'm pretty sure he is still in love with her. He refuses to go anywhere where she might be and hates talking about her. He addresses the whole thing with anger (which probably means he still has strong feelings).
What I'm finding difficult is that she's got the life I want! She travels around the world, seemingly has a good job, a nice car, lots of friends, a better figure than me. I also know that her personality was more suited to my boyfriend than mine. He will occasionally make comments about mine and how he wishes I was a bit more "spontaneous" or easy going... Which I'm guessing is because he still holds his ex as the ideal.
I know you're going to say "if he wanted her he wouldn't be with you" but remember she dumped him. He didn't have a choice. I feel awful saying all this because it might not be true but I just don't know what to do from here.
Put the internet to work for you.
