You can tell yourself over and over it makes no sense but you just can't stop the intrusions.

I have never understood this whole confessing about previous relationships , and have very few examples of the conversation ending well.

Anyway, respect to you for facing your demons and I hope you make it.
Thank you for understanding. It truly has been a problem for me during my last relationship. Im sorry that you have dealt with the same in the past too.
I was ashamed of it at first and didn't really understand what was happening until I spoke with a therapist.
Owning the problem and working towards eliminating it and the triggers has helped immensely, so to the OP, this could be worked on and overcome if he is willing to accept and deal with it. 😊
