Absolutely. An ex is someone who was a significant person in your own life at one point in time, and it is normal to think about the past. But thinking about someone as part of a past experience is not the same thing as longing or feeling emotional pain at the thought of him/her. If the thought of an ex causes emotional or mental stress, perhaps it would be beneficial to address it with therapy or reflection.

Pretty much. Remembering someone once in a while isn't unhealthy at all, but if its effecting ur present life in any way, then that definitely is..

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
