Okay this is definitely Mercury Rx at play, methinks.Lately I've been (almost obsessively) thinking about my ex and it's ruining my mood. I also have recurrent dreams that alternate between being "good" dreams and "bad" dreams (in terms of how they make me feel while they happen). It's almost making me reassess my decision; and I don't like that... Anyone else?  Them feelings suck.

I can relate and it isn't so much my most recent ex but my other exes. Lol, not to make it seem like a have so many.  But my exes from a very specific time period in my life. IP: Logged |

In a few instances I thought about my very first childhood boyfriend, haha. But it was more like a fleeting flashback. If your thoughts are constantly coming back to this then it's a pressing unresolved subconscious issue. You need some closure, after that it should stop. IP: Logged |

There are two exes that I'm so powerfully resonant with--that they never completely go away. And I wouldn't have it any other way. These were the greatest loves of my life. Married the first one, and was engaged to the second one.Perhaps this will change when the next great love of my life physically appears! Like August 17, 1987 or August 3, 1992. IP: Logged |

I totally get that and all the feelings in which it results. In my case it's developed into a big fear to be the one 'doing the dumping' to not later regret my decision or keep thinking about the guy. Otherwise it might haunt me for too long. And so there is a guy thinking about me every day while I left them in my mind for ages. You Always hear that being dumped is worse but I do not agree with that. It'll hurt a while ofcourse, but going on after that without looking back is much easier than it is for the initiator. I think this is a typical pisces thing, pisces can't make firm decisions when it comes to love, for good reason as we see. The thought of later regret or simply their inability to let go and put a line afterwards is pretty unbearable. I have no pisces in my chart but my Sun (ruler 12th) in the 12th. And yes this can all come to light more pronounced during a retro phase. IP: Logged |

I've had closure... There's nothing else to deal with. Which is why it's so annoying. It "should" be over now. I'm the one who lost feelings for him after all, right? What the fck... See this is why I don't get easily involved with people. It just affects me on a visceral level regardless of what happens. Meh. quote:

Yes... this makes sense to me. It's not so easy on the "dumping one"... Depends on the circumstances of course but sometimes you're just left with that "haunting" feeling. We had massive 12H/4H synastry action so that definitely helps. Thanks for understanding, mir.  IP: Logged |

Oh man I cannot stop thinking about this past interaction today. It was actually the reason I joined when I did. I know he's in the same area as me right now and everything about the situation ****** me off. I know we are not done with whatever karma we have so I'm just ****** . I walked aimlessly for 2 hours.Ah..\  IP: Logged |

My ex blocked me after 2 months of no contact as soon as mercury started being retrograde. I'm so sad about it, cause I still got a little hope to get back together again IP: Logged |

My ex dumped me in an e-mail this November... it was unexpected and shocking. Not only was it cowardly but he also had the courage to blame me for stupid things. I haven't had proper closure, but i had kind of let him go... until about 2-3 weeks ago where i started thinking a lot about him in almost very positive, happy ways... which did not make sense! (Saturn, my main ruler, retrograde?) I have been wondering if i was picking up on his thoughts somehow...
I feel he created big karma with what he did and how he handled things.
And so lately i have been reminding myself how much he hurt me and i shifted my thinking to the negative end.IP: Logged |

I'm in the same boat.. Cancer guy texted me during the shadow period before Merc rx started, just to chat like everything was normal and asked if I wanted to start meeting up again.. sorry what?? Last I heard he "wasn't trying to pursue anything with anyone right now". I'm in the process of moving and I have a lot going on right now but I still can't seem to get him out of my head and it's annoying. I've even written about it on other forums (paranoid maybe he creeps there but I highly doubt it). I feel ridiculous and a little bit pathetic tbh. Anyway I'm not communicating with him right now just waiting til Merc rx is over to see how the dust settles.
eta, he texted me again after I posted this so I guess we are communicating? I'm just sick of getting my hopes up only to be let down so I'm trying to be cautious

Does anyone have Mercury in Taurus? I have that and it's in the 12th house. Somehow this Mercury retrograde feels different than the past ones. Its much stronger but it's also probably because of other retrograde's happening at the same time too. Lately I've been seeing a lot of guys that look like my ex or places and people that have his name. It's annoying and it makes me wonder about him. I've only seen him once the week before the pre shadow phase. He looked in deep thought like he was thinking of ways to take some weight off his shoulders. His girlfriend was there with him while his eyes wandered to look at girls that caught his eye 🙄.
Really hope the guy I like isn't considering getting back with his ex..... Maybe talking about exes will help lessen the effect of mercury retrograde right now. As the days go by it gets stronger and stronger (for me, that is). I don't know if staying home will help so that way I don't run into things that remind me of him, or to deal until it ends IP: Logged |

{{ hugs to all }}Sorry I hadn't seen all the replies before. Hope you guys are doing better.
As for me, I still think about them from time to time, even though I realize I don't want to be with them anymore and it's in the past. I suppose it's just the memories and the emptiness that sometimes gets to me; even though I am somewhat dating someone at the moment.
