Do you ever think of your ex?

-We fell in love and almost married years ago but there were too much of heart breaking events that lead to an ultimate break up, I moved 2500 miles, changed my phone number and my email thinking I'd never hear from him again, thanks to no confidentiality internet sources he contacted me via email wanting to see me, willing to fly whenever. I have not replied, I have mixed emotions, yes, I have missed him, his voice, his touch but I still remember all the hurt he has caused in my life. I am tempted to see him but I don't know... Help me, have you had similar situations or what do you think?There too many heart breaking events and you're still considering seeing him? Why do we always do this to ourselves. You need to move on. Close that chapter once and for all in your life. You may have forgiven him (or he you) but neither of you will ever forget and that will always linger in the back of your minds which will ultimately cause other heart breaks and an eventual end to the relationship in the future.Personally, I think what you miss is the man you want him to be or the man you wish he was rather than the man he is. There's a reason why people from your past don't make it to your future and I believe you need to leave him in your past where he belongs.
You went to a lot of trouble to not have contact with him - I'm sure you have reasons for that; remember what they are and don't have contact with him if you want to move on.
if you think about him so much maybe you should see him...see how that works
