I suppose I could avoid reading her emails, but curiosity gets me even though I know I shouldn't bother opening the email.

I really regret continuing a friendship when I knew back then that we didn't have much in common and that she was starting to irk me. This has happened to me in the past.....staying in a relationship even though I know it's over. Rationally, it's really self-defeating.

What I would like to know is if it normal that I spend way too much time thinking of how/why she annoys me. Am I still emotionally attached even though she bugs me.

I have this problem of analyzing things to death and it only serves to destroy me. It's the looping repetitive thoughts and I do try to distract myself when that happens.

I can think of other times in my life when I was seeing a guy that I wasn't into and I ended the relationship. Then I would spend all this time analyzing why I did so. It's stupid that I do this because I already know why.

I do try to distract myself, but the repetitive thoughts come back.


To Moderators: Is there a way I can get email notification when I start a thread so I know I got a response? I don't see an option for that in the settings.
