you already know the answer. your memories are doing you a disservice. 7 years is a long time. let it go.
i heard someone say once that we hang onto things because we are getting something out of it for ourselves. what are you getting out of harboring regret?
i've found that i've held onto things for self-pity, or to remain a victim in my own or others eyes, or out of fear.
you will never be satisfied with any new relationship until you let the last one go, and are totally content being alone. sorry for getting all preachy or whatever, but this topic has been very close to me for the last year, and i'm having much the same difficulties as you.
Seeing you yesterday made me miss you, sir. I've been so caught up in my own depressive bullshit, but it's just horrible to stay locked away. I hope we get to spend some time together soon.
Oh yeah, and did you recognize my female compadre...?
