It can also be as difficult as some mechanical issue that one could hardly resolve. In other cases, when a couple separates, one of the partners attempts to eliminate the previous lover’s memory by having a new boyfriend or girlfriend.

They want a new partner to change that thought pattern and allow them to move forward. However, this very often means they have not fully moved on and are still very much obsessed with their ex.

Believing that a new partner will be different, some people discuss their past relationships a lot or sulk in a new relationship. This implies they are still infatuated with the previous love and are not yet able to fully concentrate on the new one.

In essence, it’s wrong to use a new person to replace an old love because you are both hurting the new person and, likely, yourself.

So, Don’t be silly! It doesn’t work! One is kindness, the other is not to use people.

Thank you for reading!
